Safe. Caleb has to be safe.
The words roll as he lifts his head and his voice booms,] Search the ship! Arrest the captain and have them before me in an hour!

And one instant of a strange abyssal looking beast snapped his control in two. He leans into the hand giving him the ground beneath his feet and looks at him. He is still in that mode: one wrong move from any beast and he would kill it. In his pale blue eye magic swirls. His breath comes out in a puff. And he says in a whisper.] You’re safe?
