Chapter 49
Brine Wight
A drowned sailor risen salt-logged on the narrows, walking the tide-line at night looking for a ship that sank a long time ago.
The mere keeps its drowned and sometimes hands them back wrong. They do not speak. They reach. The Hands douse the beacon and run the narrows blind rather than light a path the wights can follow.
