They made it around a bend in the river and passed out of view of the Sanctuary two bells before dawn. Fishbone had spent twenty years captaining boats in and out of the private harbor and up the river. Even with a skeleton crew, he could manage it. Even in the thick of a full-blown drunk his instincts were still sound. It wasn’t until they’d made it to the river channel, and safety, that Fishbone got noisily sick over the gunwale. The captain’s slightly less drunk first mate took over while Fishbone slumped down against the mast and began snoring raggedly.

Feeling safe for the first time since before they had entered the Octopus, Ben and his friends settled down to rest too, lying in an exhausted jumble on the deck of the ship.

Towaal crawled over to Ben and probed his wounds, adding another dose of healing energy.

“A few days rest on the ship will do you good,” she murmured. “You’ll have no permanent damage if you allow it to heal.”

“Good to know,” he said.

The excitement of the last few days was fading, and with it, the pace of his heart slowed. Despite the healing, the puncture Milo left in his thigh still throbbed painfully. It was almost enough to keep him awake, but not quite. His eyes drooped shut, and he laid his head down on the deck of the ship.
