Five days later.
That afternoon, Seth and Alice looked ahead with seriousness. The sailing ship had passed through Italy, leaving Rome behind because Seth thought it was useless for him to anchor in the city.
Now, the sailing ship built of strong wood was ready to enter the Bosphorus Strait, the strait connecting Asia with Europe. Because the strait wasn't big, Seth, Alice, and the passengers on this ship could see the land on the right and left.
Seth is still at the ship's rudder with Alice on the right edge of the ship's bridge, looking straight at the land, which was still part of Turkey. Unlike Alice, Mila and her friends were looking to the left of the deck.
"Many ships bobble above the strait, but none are powered up." Seth was still focusing his eyes forward. Seth saw a solid bridge connecting the two lands separated by the strait.
