Summary
Neteyam felt nothing but a deep longing for this home he would probably never see again –a small part of him felt it. He hated everything about their desertion, but deep down he knew they’d had no choice but to flee the war, and for how heavy it weighed on his shoulders, it was certainly worse for his parents. His siblings too suffered from it.
It was hard on them, and it would only get harder once they landed, for only uncertainty awaited them on distant shores.Or,
Neteyam had always been familiar with sacrifice, control, and discipline, it ran in his veins the same way defiance ran in Lo’ak’s. Yet upon arriving in the Metkayina village of Awa’atlu, in an ironic twist of events, he met a boy who made his whole world collapse; troubling, obnoxious, often cruel, Ao’nung was everything he wasn’t. Through secret meetings and stolen glances, their hostility turned into something deeper.
But war was coming, and Neteyam was ready to lay down his life if it meant protecting what he held dear.
