along the deck until he fetched up against the bow.
The unrelenting gusts that had been flailing the ship from astern immediately began to moderate in
intensity. Pounding squalls became gentle breezes. Ehomba estimated that the floor of the valley lay little
more than a hundred feet below the surrounding surface of the ocean proper. Not a great difference, but
one sufficient to provide them with a safe haven while the winds liberated from the mysterious bottle blew
themselves out overhead.
They could hear those freed siroccos and emancipated mistrals blustering and raging overhead, but they
did not blow down into the olivine depression to roil the serene waters. There was no perceptible
current; only a gentle lapping of wavelets against the tired sides of the ship.
Climbing down out of the rigging, Stanager confronted her tall, laconic passenger. For someone who s
never been to sea, you seem to know much of its secrets.
Ehomba smiled gently. I have lived by the shore all my life. The Naumkib learn to swim before they can
walk. And there are many in the village who have been farther out on the waters than I. A wise man is a
sponge who soaks up the experiences of others.
With an acknowledging grunt, she studied the walls of water that formed the basin. I would ve
preferred the lee of an island.
This was the only refuge I saw, he replied apologetically.
I m not complaining, mind. As theGrömsketter rocked contentedly in the mild swells, she turned and
shouted commands. Terious! Tell Uppin the carpenter to pick a crew to help him and have him get
started on the necessary repairs. Once they ve begun, see to the sails and rigging. Choose two men to
settle the mess belowdecks!
Ayesh, Captain! Turning, the first mate commenced to issue orders of his own.
Scrutinizing the enclosing green slopes, Stanager remained uneasy. This valley we ve slipped into; will it
stay stable? If these walls decide to collapse in upon us, we ll become instant chum.
When the old people of my village who have the most experience with the sea mention such a place,
they speak of it as something that lingers long. I think we will be all right here. How long will it take your
people to make the ship right again?
She deliberated. The damage is not crippling, but if left unattended to, it would surely have become so.
We ve a full day s work ahead of us, more likely two.
Good! Simna, for one, was not disappointed. Leaning on the rail, he surveyed their implausible
surroundings. I could do with a couple days of knowing where my legs are going to be at all times. Not
to mention my belly. He glanced hopefully at the herdsman. If this phenomenon is as steadfast as you
say, bruther, maybe we could lower one of the small boats and do some fishing.
I do not see why you could not, Ehomba replied encouragingly.
Why not fish from theGrömsketter ? Stanager frowned at him.

My tackle won t reach the water.
Tackle? Her puzzlement deepened in tandem with her frown. I didn t notice any fishing gear among
your baggage.
He winked at her. You were looking at the wrong baggage. Turning, he yelled down in the direction of
the mainmast, where a large black, furry mass lay half asleep, purring sonorously. Hoy, kitty! Feel like
some fresh fish?
The litah yawned majestically. I told you not to call me that. But I always feel like fresh fish.
Then I ll be right down. Passing the Captain, the swordsman arched his eyebrows at her. That s my
tackle.
The sounds of hammering and sawing rose from the main deck where Uppin the carpenter and his
commandeered assistants were already hard at work making preparations to carry out the necessary
repairs to the ship. Something rose up behind Ehomba and the Captain, shading them from the
intermittent sun.
Hunkapa go fish too?
Not this time, my friend. Ehomba smiled sympathetically. A little enthusiasm on your part goes a long
way. I can see you catching a fish and in the excitement of the moment, drenching Simna and Ahlitah all
over again. He indicated the bustle of fresh activity that filled the main deck. Why not see if you can
help the crew with their work? I am sure they could use an extra pair of strong hands.
More than human teeth flashed amidst the gray hair. Good idea, friend Etjole. Hunkapa strong!
Hunkapa go and help.
Stanager watched him descend to the main deck in a single, booming hop that disdained use of the [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
