Dolores

They called her the unicorn of the sea before they knew what she was.

Dolores' horn can sense storms before they form and lies in the same way. That is why she always swims toward the dark without hesitating — she has already felt what is in there.

In the Middle Ages narwhal horns were sold as unicorn horns for more gold than their weight. Queens received them as gifts. Emperors paid off national debts to own one. They believed it cured poison and broke curses. They were wrong about what it was. But right that it was magical.

Around Dolores you dare a little more. You feel like you can handle things you didn't think you could. As if her courage lends itself out for a while.
