Fireflies danced and buzzed around him, the lake, his sister...but all around him, he heard the voices whispering to him. How long had it been since he heard his father's voice?

He seemed to watch helplessly as Tox went under, but he felt like he was unable to move. Frozen in place. His body refused to move, and he seemed to soundlessly scream at the fireflies and the voices that suddenly assaulted him. Tox's voice was faint among the noise, but it was as if he couldn't make a sound.
