In order to connect with the original documented route, the three travellers were aware that they had to cross the Linderbrook Sea. Having made a raft, as their predecessors had done before them, they set sail in a Southerly direction. As the air grew heavy, the surface of the water became a window of evolution through which angular scaled fish covered with bright enamel could be seen dwelling amongst pterychtis and dipterides, the latter being a two-finned fish, until then presumed extinct. With the shore no lenger in view, they lay motionless afloat the Linderbrook Sea. With all arround them seemingly locked in timeles history, they could only wonder as to what destiny would befall them. As one, they closed their eyes and prayed.
