We're close. Just hold on, and kick your legs if you can, just slowly is fine.
[ As soon as her arms are free and Viktor's holding onto her shoulders or belt, however they've managed, Ciri begins swimming toward the visible shoreline. The waves, thankfully calm, help buoy them, making it a little easier to keep their heads above water-- but any turbulence at all makes swimming harder, and Viktor hanging on adds another complication, though Ciri won't complain. It's slow going. She doesn't speak, all her focus on getting them close enough, until finally, they can see the line where the waves lap at the white beach.
Ciri feels around for ground beneath her, accidentally dipping under the water twice (sorry Viktor) before it's suddenly shallow enough her boots hit sand. ]
