"Well, ain't you two a sight for sore eyes" the two of them turned to face an exhausted Sven, who'd climbed back on from the other side.

"Did you jump off as well?" Katla asked, lying down on the boat and catching her breath.

"No, that monster knocked me and a few others overboard when it broke free.
