Chip was down by the beach, with their daughter. Teaching her how to tie knots, practicing with her. He'd done similar lessons when she was younger, but had tapered off the longer they'd stayed ashore... but now, with the possibility of taking to the sea coming nearer and nearer, he wanted to ensure she understood how to handle her own ship.
Other members of the clan were watching, practicing, and asking for advice. He moved away from Chi, to settle in front of one of the elders of the clan.
He made his rounds on the knot lessons, before moving to sweep one of the clan's childrens out of the way of an incoming wave. The little girl burbled quietly, completely unafraid, as Chip took the brunt and shock of the cold wave that had been heading towards her.
He grunted, shaking his hair out of his face as he sat the girl down, nudging her back to the shore.

So, right here... you needed to go under, instead of over.He corrected the knot for them,
Over-tied knots can come loose.He explained patiently.

Go find Taegen, Orlaith. You shouldn't be swimming by yourself.
