The chronicle of the grey one past the shelf

Open sea, 3534 m deep, kept by Maren

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: orca (passing), seal (feeding), whale (migrating), shark (feeding), dolphin (feeding), cod (feeding).

The people

Names from their own tongue. They hold the sea sacred.
They keep: boats sung in; burial in the water; the first-catch feast; shared catch; songs at the water.
They like timber, rope, cod, and the water. They dislike storm, fog, and stone. Open to strangers.
Their words: hearth huovaevi, river or sea niepe, winter or the rains horuhe, the dead pookaavuni, home awemi, stranger apuipi, feast waputo, child meletapo, old one riakenuto, the place Olukeno, the beast imivi, the sky eku.
