When Angor saw the date indicator on his tablet entering a new year, The Limpet finally arrived at Grandgreen Range, which was the first place to go for people from Ferran who would enter Devil's Water. But to The Limpet, this basically meant their final destination.
"That was five months, huh?" Angor listened to the joyful conversations of sailors and felt sad all of a sudden.
In order not to let random concerns and old memories depress him, he forced himself to empty his mind.
But Tulu's arrival disrupted his peace.
"Are you joining our feast, Mister Padt? Officer Helen asked me to invite you…" Tulu wasn't sure whether he was interrupting something.
"No." Angor shook his head. "I'll just cause all you people to get nervous again. I'll watch from here."
"We're almost at Ferran Land. We wish to sincerely thank you, sir."
Angor considered and decided to comply.
