"Away from everyone else," Mathias agrees, pushing his wet hair off his face, feeling cool water trickling down between his shoulder blades. The path is close and he knows it's well traveled, but that doesn't stop him from feeling what Veronica is saying. It's peaceful in a way not many other parts of the island are.
Touching Henrich's pendant unconsciously, he turns the coin over and over as he moves through the water slowly. He's moving closer to Veronica, he isn't trying to hide it, but he continues to speak as he moves. "There aren't many people here, not compared to where we come from, yet sometimes it feels so crowded. Like there isn't enough room." It isn't true, he knows it isn't, but that doesn't stop him from feeling it now and then.
