Metin dökümü
Panel 1: On the sunny deck, Pancar holds Roka out beyond the red railing by the collar, Roka's feet dangling over the open sea. Turp leans on his boat hook. Turp: 'Say hi to the Maws.' Panel 2: Close on Roka's chest: his right arm is hidden inside his jacket, and one glowing cyan eye peeks out between the folds. Tohum: 'Are they going to kill you?' Panel 3: Roka dangles above the water, teeth clenched, his right arm still hidden. Roka: '...Yeah.' Tohum: 'No. You're my only battery.'
Görsel açıklaması
Pancar holds Roka out over the sea beyond the ship's rail; Roka keeps his right arm hidden as the eye peeking from his jacket asks if they will kill him.
Bu bölüm hakkında
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.
