A while later, Finnur was sitting at the wheel, reading over his job description, when a small, angry-looking bird descended onto the wheel. It moved the wheel just a little bit before Finnur snatched its feet out from under it and wrung its neck. A pelican, its throat would make for a good, strong satchel. He plucked the feathers, one by one, and started up the heater. It was a good thing to have on a boat on long trips, the small, black stove that he called the heater, to cook whatever he caught or whatever tried to catch him. He tore the limbs from the bird, gutted it, and placed all but the guts into the heater to cook. A little while later, he pulled the bird out, and called down to Lilah, "There's bird up here if you're hungry." He would let her eat first.
