As if following up on that sentiment, Domenica expressed her own sadness regarding her mother. Her worries, especially those about being able to let her family know that she was okay, were familiar to him, and he scooched over to lay a wing on her reassuringly.
"I know how you feel," he said, gently. "But it's going to be okay, we have tools back home, you're not stranded like you could have been. When we get back to the Shore, I'll help you find a way to contact your mom, I promise. You too, Amanda..." Willow turned back to Mrs. Bela. "... I don't know if we can do anything to face off against those people who drove you and Sandy away, but with the Shore's traveling abilities and Giovenith's paper magic, we could probably send a letter to whoever you left behind. If it's safe to, that is." He smiled. "You guys helped me reunite with my family, after all."
Domenica smiled a little at Willow doing that for her. She said, "Thanks. That means a lot. My mother did a lot for me. I followed in her footsteps. She is a writer like me. Hope we get back to the Shore when we can."
Later, she just listened to the others on until they got to the point about Gio. Domenica was quite observant up until that point. She rose a little from the water and leaned back against the edge. She said, "So, sorry to just ask, but, where might we be going next? We've finally got to here, got some stuff done with Willow, and what not. I'm honestly a bit interested in having another adventure before I would want to try and contact my mother again."
