Smoke on the River

The man who walked has kept to the rail since we entered the river, and by now the men watch him more closely than they watch the banks. Brought before the officers at last, he studies the shore for a long while and says that the city lies farther on. It is always farther on, past this town, past where any of these people have ever gone. The men choose to believe him, because belief costs nothing tonight, and the alternative would cost the whole voyage.
