대본

Panel 1: Tiny cyan sparks bloom where the silver powder touches Roka's skin. A voice from the case, in a black balloon: 'Warm.' Panel 2: Roka freezes. Roka: '...Who said that?' Panel 3: The powder surges up his right forearm like liquid metal, glowing lines racing to the elbow, and he falls back. Roka: 'GET OFF!' 'GET OFF ME!'

이미지 설명

Sparks flare as the silver powder touches Roka's hand, a voice says Warm, and the powder surges up his right arm as he falls back screaming.

이 챕터에 대해

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.
