Kaleb and Tabet were sprawled on the wooden floor of the poop deck, the boy's body badly injured from the blast. He expected the inevitable.

The spirit of the huachi warrior left his body just at that moment.

-Kaleb! -he said worried-. It can't be, there oor still a few minuts left foor the effect of the tears. I don't un-door-stand.

The huachi wondered what had expelled him from the boy's body. He was unaware that the body was seriously damaged, so weak that it could no longer support two spirits at the same time. Kaleb, for his part, seemed to be aware of this, but he did not mention it, he only said:

-We did it, Tabet... -his voice was almost a whisper-. He won't do anything to the Huachi Kingdom, and now they can send another champion to find the exit.

Tabet looked at the dying human that he had met when he was seeking his freedom, and now he was sacrificing himself for the people of huachi.

-Thank yoo, Kaleb -said the spirit as he faded, the effect of the tears was running out.

-Now I see why the poor-en-suss chose yoo, yoo are a very spe-shool hyooman. Yoo fought yoor own peh-pool to save mine. Thank yoo, Kaleb. Thank yoo.

It was the last thing the huachi spirit said, before disappearing completely and then the dagger stopped shining.

-If I could do more... -Kaleb said, lying on the ground. His movements were slow and weak, his chest reflecting how difficult it was for him to breathe.

Around him, the ship and the wreckage were slowly being consumed. The surviving pirates sank into the darkness and the shadow creatures disappeared.

Kaleb turned to look at you.

-Do you think there is anything else I can do...?
