따개비와 뒤엉겨 붙은 플라스틱으로 뒤덮인, 뼈처럼 새하얀 거대한 상어 괴물 더 모가 캔디리프의 먼 쪽 절반을 뚫고 솟아오른다. 고리 모양 이빨이 둘러싼 둥근 목구멍을 드러내며 입을 벌린다. 상자와 방수포, 분홍색·청록색·노란색 플라스틱 조각들이 밝고 푸른 하늘로 날아오르고, 아래에서는 작은 사람들이 달아난다.

Sobre este capítulo
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.
