"I felt your desperation, your fear... And your wish for Ciara to emerge unharmed from the water."
Clyde's mind raced with a flurry of emotions, grappling with the implications of Yves' revelation. "But how...?" he began, his voice trailing off as he struggled to find the right words.
Yves shook his head, his own thoughts spinning with uncertainty. "I don't know," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper as he clutched his own chest. "But I think... the power of this pearl… that has been sealed before… has been reawakened once more… this time I'm afraid it's more powerful than I could ever imagine."
Clyde's voice reverberated with urgency as he clutched Yves' arms, his eyes drilling into Yves with intensity. "Tell me everything. What else do you know?" he demanded, his tone laced with desperation.
Yves' breath caught in his throat as he processed Clyde's words. Suddenly, a surge of realization washed over him, and he spoke with newfound urgency.
