South

The southern part of the city has a chic family-oriented sort of charm to it. Here, small locally owned shops run rampant, neighbors often know each other by name, and the monthly socials are an event not to be missed. In the South, children can often be seen safely playing in the park or on sidewalks and in the weekends, families often take to the beach to enjoy the warm waters surrounding the city.

When he had received the call from Nadya to help get her children a little more comfortable in water, he had readily agreed to meet them. After all, he had offered her his help and he had no intention of backing down on his help now. As he rode up to the community swimming pool, he parked his bike in the bike rack, chaining it to the post before untying his small kickboard that he had brought from home. He didn't have any children's size boards, but he grabbed the smallest one he had with him here in Sacrosanct.

Once inside, he went into the locker room and changed into his swim trunks and locked his clothes in one of the lockers. As he entered the pool area, he made sure to grab a pool noodle as well. As he walked towards the pools, he saw Nadya and her twins sitting quietly on the bleachers. The twins didn't look too enthusiastic about being here. Nadya had warned that they didn't like the water, so it was no surprise that they really didn't want to be there.

He walked up to the trio, his towel tossed over his shoulder and the kick board nestled under his arm. "Good morning everyone. Micah, Izzy, are you ready?" He motioned for them to join him near the water. He placed his towel on a chair and then walked towards the pool. He slid into the water, placing his kick board at the edge of the pool and patting the ground. "Come on kiddos, come sit down by the water. You don't have to get in yet." The last thing he wanted to do was scare them by forcing them into the water. He was hoping that he could start out slow, helping the kids to learn that water could be fun. Once they got comfortable with the idea of the water, then they could slowly introduce themselves into the water.
