Dawn skims the sea with wings of gold, spreading tapered rays of light, toward the white manes of the water horses. Surrounding each mane in an arc of rainbow colors.

Each white horse pursues the others, in a labored race to reach the shore. Reaching its destination, each water horse spews foam upon the shore. Retreating in a rush, dragging seaweed and pebbles back to the ocean. Being replaced by another in a re-enactment of the race.

Dawn, impatient to be gone, calls to the mermaids to groom and calm their charges. Soon... She must leave.

Magnificent! In appearance, the sun rises, the sea is calm.

Dawn has fled.
