The journey was as smooth as it can be. Arthur took the sail most of the time, but with how smooth the sea was and the wind help guiding them through it, their hands were free enough that they had plent of times together. James had again impressed Arthur with the nautical skills he demonstrated, and with him so helpful on board, it was easy to control this light little vessel.
As they approached their destination, Arthur was more excited. He knew the island from 2 passing times of visiting. he felt like several spot on it was familiar, but never quite managed to locate the exact place where he was rescued by the selkie - indeed, he couldn't determine if this was THAT island or not.
As they lowered the anchor, there was something that was blocking it from sinking deep. "I'll go check out. You stay on board." he said while he removed his shirt. Taking the dive effortlessly, he dove deep to check the mess of rock at the seabed.
"This isn't a good place. Can you pull up the anchor? we can try another place." Arthur resurfaced before swimming towards the shore, not bothering to board again now that they were so close.
The anchor was reeling up and Arthur was in a pretty relaxed mood. The sun was nice, the tides gentle. He enjoyed his time and made several dives in this clear water - until something didn't quite feel right and within seconds, he was pulled into an undercurrent. It trapped his body. Arthur tried his hardest to swim away from it, but the pull was strong and Arthur wasn't sure he had enough strenght with him half choking already.
"j-jam..." he managed, but that was so weak he didn't think the young man would have heard on board.
