The Farthest Shore (Eden Series Book 3) - Plot & Excerpts
He needed strength as well as wits for the night ahead. The ship was becalmed. Terlow showed no signs of frustration—since there was only so much a man, especially not one born to the sea, could do—but Ralcilos chafed at the delay. Checkmate didn’t rely on the winds and would leave them far behind. He had no intention of remaining a prisoner, but first he would deal with his guards. There were two of them, as always, both with knives at their belts. The master of the ship didn’t strike Ralcilos as a tactical genius, but he was certainly careful. The guard was changed regularly as well, so no two men were with him for longer than eight hours, and they stayed awake while he slept. As for bribing them, Ralcilos would not have risked it even if he’d had more pearls. After all, what could they do if they took his payment and let him go? Jump into the ocean or wait for Terlow to deal with them? That left him few options.
