When I looked down, I could see what was keeping the ship above the water. Massive almost completely invisible blocks surrounded the ship and around the sides. It gave the effect that let us float in the air, but I could see the bottom of the block and it was at least ten meters above the surface of the rolling sea.
"I wonder how it works?" I asked out loud to no one in particular.
"Magic!" Came the sound of an old man's voice that whistled through what I assumed had to be missing teeth.
I turned to find a strange old man, sweeping the deck. I looked at him as Kyla climbed up my leg and into my arms to hang off my shoulder and stare out at the sea, while I tried to place the old man's face. I had gone over the crew with Black, and I remembered this guy…
"Gerald! Do you know how these things work? Besides that they use magic?" I asked, while putting Kyla down to run back to the girls.
