Morning arrived with a gentle breeze and the sound of waves crashing along the shore. Canna awoke feeling completely refreshed.
The meal from the night before had filled him with vigor, both in body and spirit. Alma, the kind grandmother who had hosted him, had served an incredible feast, and the entire family had joined in. Alma's two grandchildren and their mother had all shared stories and laughter with him as they indulged in the delicious seafood. For Canna, who had rarely tasted such food, it had been a delightful surprise.
Sunlight streamed through the small gaps of Alma's simple, cozy house, casting a warm glow across the room. Canna yawned and stretched his arms before looking around. The others were still fast asleep, the room filled with peaceful snores. He quietly made his way outside, careful not to disturb anyone.
