Drogoya: Book 3 Circles of Light series (61 page)

He padded back down to
the lower hall and opened the only closed door in that place. At
every second turn of the spiral, Namolos touched a glow stone which
burgeoned to life. Eighteen stones were lit behind him when he
reached the lowest level. The muffled sound of the sea came from
ahead of him. At times of great storms, sea water had breached this
area. Stepping from the last stair, the cavern flooded with a soft
light.

His ship lay there in
front of him, repaired as far as they’d been able to do so, but
still scarred and battered. Her main door slid open as Namolos
approached. A soft feminine voice spoke.

‘Greetings
Captain.’

‘Greetings Dancer.’
Namolos entered the ship, turning left to get to the navigation
unit at the upper front level. He sat in his captain’s chair and
laid the palm of his hand flat against the skin of the ship wall.
The ship thrummed with pleasure.

‘I know your news
Captain, but I’m glad you see fit to visit me.’

‘Events may be going
our way at last.’

‘I saw Gremara through
my siblings’ minds. She is beautiful once more Captain.’

‘Dancer, we still
aren’t sure we can restore all your functions.’

‘You never promised us
we would fly again Captain. We knew there would be doubts about
that from our arrival here. We also know in which particular ways
each of us is damaged. We have repaired many synapses, many
circuits. When you name the time, we will know our
chances.’

Namolos bent forward,
leaning his head against the ship wall next to his hand.

‘You have always
inspired my hope Star Dancer.’

The ship laughed. ‘And
flattery cannot make me do more than I can Namolos. Just remember:
we are Survivors.’
