Summary: Elizabeth learns a song.


The song, as she learns it, is a history and warning and call all in one. Elizabeth learns it like drinking fresh water, her hands busy with the ropes, her legs tangled with the rigging as the evening turns towards night and the breeze rises fresh and damp over the waves. It seems familiar to her somehow, the story of trickery winning over something almost beyond fighting, like a tale her mother might have told when she was young and still a child. She thinks she quite likes it.
