Chimper #3475
Konori was a creature of dry land. They once saw the great cascade of Waterfall City as little more than a noisy inconvenience, something to be endured from the quiet of the high libraries. That changed the day a sabotaged bridge sent them plunging into the churning whitewater. Panic gave way to peace just before the end, when Kaito pulled them from the depths, a silhouette against the stormy sky. They gasped for air on the bank, a life they didn't recognize now theirs. They never returned to the high libraries. Instead, they learned the river's language from the fishers in the lower city, feeling its push and pull until they could bend it to their will. The Mega Sabre on their back is rarely drawn, but its weight is a constant reminder of the promise they made to the water that spared them.
