A pod of SouthernOcean Orca who swim under the leadership of Torkahn, Torryn's powerful and awe inspiringfather."Concentrating his mind on the rapidly approaching and unknown pod of whales, Torrynlooks to his mother. He can see that her eyes are set wide, her mouth hanging open toreveal her fine rows of teeth. Nee-lah too was copying this behaviour, as each member ofthe pod swam strongly toward the on-coming members of the opposing pod. Feeling the seaaround him come alive to the searching echoes and the crackling pulses and immenseenergy of the combined lives of more than thirty Orca. With his senses quivering to thisoverwhelming tide of calls and scents, Torryn finds himself holding his breath!"To a still inexperienced Torryn, news of his father's sudden wish to lead the pod away fromthe sight of the land, to swim out into the deep sea fills him with a feeling of breathlessanticipation.
