Ablution - A ceremonial act of washing parts of the body or sacred containers

Revolution

She then dived back into the water, making her way steadily toward the ocean floor in the darkness, using the wall of the cove as a guide. This was always her favorite part of swimming with her god, making her way to the bottom. She liked to release the air from her lungs and sit there in the sand, letting the underwater world move around her uninterrupted. It was her personal sort of rebellion against life, a revolution is you will, a chance to see what the world would be like if you weren't there.

It was so peaceful, so pure. And if she held on just long enough, she could feel him, wrapping around her in long, scaled coils, urging her to swim.

She'd opened her eyes the first time she had felt it, but saw nothing more than sunlight shimmering on the water, even though she could feel the solid warmth of his form around her. She'd allowed him to ferry her to the surface that time, relishing the feeling of his mane between her fingers. It felt like sea weed though there was nothing in her hands.

So she didn't fear when she felt his long snake-like body curling around her again, head bumping against her legs to get her moving. She merely ran fingers across she silky smoothness of him for a moment before giving a sharp kick of her feet that propelled her toward the air.
