The Unicorn Whale swam toward the seafloor.
Its unicorn horn emitted a faint blue light, swimming deeper into the ocean. The horn continuously exerted a power that controlled the seawater, slowly parting the water beneath its belly and in front of it, while the water behind naturally sank, propelling the Unicorn Whale forward rapidly.
While swimming towards the location from which its companions were emitting soundwaves, it made a similar sound. The whale exhaled air from its lungs into the "phonation labia." Once the air entered this passage, the membrane closed, and the airflow vibrated as it passed through, creating sounds. These sounds were rhythmic, divided into paragraphs, each perfectly repeatable, together forming a complex whale song.
Al and Yarlessto sat dejectedly on the canoe, not knowing where the Unicorn Whale was headed; they could only helplessly accept its arrangements.
