⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵...(Tour of "High Island")...Continued...
[Last time...]
Just then another short cheer went up from the main deck as the young woman Leyla was led towards the bridge stairs by Seaman Silversaver888 who stopped just short of the steps and motioned for her to ascend. Leyla shyly climbed the short staircase and stood no more than ten feet behind the Captain and Omar.
With a slight smile the Captain motioned her over and said to the man,
“Do you know this woman?”

[On the Silverton…bridge deck…]
Omar wrinkled his brow before turning. Suddenly his muted expression took on a real and vibrant look of life as his eyes lit up! Before he could even smile, Leyla ran forth and embraced him with tears in her eyes!
“Oh Omer!” She cried out, squeezing him tightly like she might never let him go!
“Le…Ley…Leyl...” He muttered in utter disbelief, “Leyla!”
Commander Kerrislravenhill felt a lump grow in her throat and all those within hearing fell silent until the Captain slowly began to clap his hands!
“Cheers fur th' heart!” He called out and soon the entire crew on the main deck was clapping and cheering out loud!
[The Seneca Village…one and a half miles south…]
The chief sat upon his thrown of deer and beaver skins as he listened carefully to what the scouts had to say…
“Chief…” (translated), “The great ship now just over one mile north of us. Shows no sign of retreat!” The lead warrior declared.
“Hmmm…have you been seen?”
“No. They rouse amongst themselves Chief! Taking glory in strange rituals!”
“Hmmm…does not sound like war party! Do they brandish weapons?”
“No...brandish no weapons...”
The Chief now thought hard…”We must not let them come to our doorstep until we know what they want!”
“We attack then?”
“No...take two canoes with seven warriors- paddle south, confront them!”
“Confront the great ship?! How- with weapons?!”
“No! Take Little Grey Wolf! He spent many moons with the prisoner who escaped. He can speak some- their strange tongue!” The Chief ordered.
“Little Grey Wolf?! He no warrior?!”
“No, but I want know... why they come so far into Seneca land?!”
