He had just reviewed the ship, and although the captain and his men had been working fantically to repair it for the duration of his illness, work was not enough to repair it; materials that were not available on the island. , he thought. He did a few mental calculations, and quickly abandoned the idea of trying to swim. Although he was a strong swimmer, trying to swim to the mainland, which he calculated to be several days away, would merely have been suicidal. They needed some way to get out of this paradox, to avoid the ravages of fate. Then he thought of the shapeshifter, and wondered. Perhaps here there was an answer... But he could not count on that. He did not know how complete the shapechange was, and for what he needed, anything less than perfect would be disastrous. He wondered about the foes that had followed them to the island. Although most had been supernatural, suerely they could not all have walked on the water. With that thought in mind, Elanon went to search the shoreline. --- Ian Clysdale | | One .sig file to rule them all, Co-Op Student | | One .sig file to find them, Bell Northern | | One .sig file to bring them all, Ottawa, Ontario. | | And in the memory bind them.
