“Nearly six hours, no wind at all. We’ve made our devotions, but so far we haven’t been favored. Perhaps you’ve more influence?”
“I’m neither priest nor shaman, Captain, and I know no weather spells. My power will be of no help.”
“As I feared.”
“I could try to call a monster from the deep, to tow us—”
“No! I thank you, but… Kyriletta is a fragile lady. And the wind will blow eventually, sure as the world turns.”
