I took Thalassa fishing a couple of times, so I thought she might be at the lake. I asked Krile - she can talk to animals - to ask Bernard if she saw Thalassa, and she didn't. So that's one worry down.
[His logical conclusion prior to Krile speaking with the giant squid was that Thalassa had decided to go to the lake by herself and slipped on the wet dock and drowned. It certainly didn't seem unlikely. Kids died like that all the time, snd it was a huge relief knowing that Thalassa wasn't dead somewhere in such an awful manner.]
