It had been 3 days since Erik set sail with his ship, and he estimated it would take another two days to reach the next port. The sea was mercifully calm, allowing him to focus on navigating in the right direction while spending his time fishing for food. He planned to sell any extra fish once he reached land.
On the fourth day of his journey, the weather took a turn for the worse. The wind grew stronger and dark clouds covered the sky. Erik lowered the sails and prepared to face the storm. As rain poured down and waves rose high, Erik's trusty ship proved its worth in handling such conditions. A few hours later, the storm passed, leaving behind a calm sea with birds soaring through the blue skies.
Suddenly, Erik spotted a boy struggling in the water, clinging to a log for dear life.
