A sensation of cold passes through his body, but somehow, though it chills him to the core it is not unpleasant. He senses that some magic has been passed to him. "Calm seas and Fair Winds." She begins to play a tune that is somehow familiar yet, Michael has never heard it before. It puts him in mind of the sea and motion. He finds a spring in his step as he returns to the Retribution. Within the hour the lines are cast off from the Ice and two more Life Ships have arrived to continue the journey north. The retribution is soon sailing back into the channel that will take them once more into the calm predictable waters of the inner sea. The sun sets and Michael finds that the wind is at their back, perhaps a parting gift from the Druids.</blockquote>
