I was frightened to my core by the very water around me. The place I am most at home was suddenly the place I had to escape. My heart was racing. My brain was racing. My brain was fire. I could feel myself blacking out from fear as I swam to the surface. And for the life of me, I have no idea what happened.

— Aquaman
