Billy often spent time near the river. It was essential to constantly monitor the water for safety, even though he knew it was supposed to be pure. Ship damage could happen, and he could take nothing for granted.

On one of those routine water checks, he happened to spot Stephen's friend, the new crew member: Morgan. He wasn't swimming or wading across, no...it appeared to be meditation. Billy had practiced with Kaya a few times, but even she hadn't done it in her native element. Not when she was with him, at least.

He sat on the bank and waited for a chance to talk, running over some last-minute data from the department while he did so. Taking a break from that to meditate and train was going to need a little effort.
