文字記錄
The Maw, ein kolossales, knochenweißes haiähnliches Monster, bedeckt mit Seepocken und verschmolzenem Plastik, bricht durch die hintere Hälfte von Candyreef hervor. Sein Maul öffnet sich zu einem runden Schlund mit ringförmig angeordneten Zähnen. Kisten, Planen und Splitter aus rosa, cyanfarbenem und gelbem Plastik fliegen in den strahlend blauen Himmel, während unten winzige Gestalten davonlaufen.

關於本章
In the dark at the bottom of the sea, something is counting. On Candyreef, a candy-coloured island of floating trash, Roka wakes to a water bag in the face from his street crew, lifts breakfast from the old woman who would have fed him anyway, and tells the kid who follows him that he doesn't owe anybody. Then the gulls lift all at once, and a Maw eats half the island. A day and a night alone at sea later, the Garden Ship fishes him out and orders him to walk its treadwheels for fish heads. Roka is nobody's slave, so he goes looking for something to steal instead, and breaks into a barnacled case dredged from the seabed. The silver dust inside climbs into his arm and says hello. It is polite. It is curious. It wants every human dead. And it has just started counting again.
