The chronicle of Copper Kettle
Open sea, 5129 m deep, kept by Nils
Every line is a record the land wrote; the names in quotes are the owner's words. What the chronicle does not say did not happen. Most lines fade after half a year; the kept ones stay.
Animals here this month: whale (migrating), shark (feeding), sea turtle (feeding), dolphin (feeding), tuna (passing), reef fish (feeding).
