Plus tard, Polly traversa le village. De la vapeur sortait des fissures de la route. Un grand bassin brillait en orange tout près. C'est la même chaleur qui a cuit le repas.
L'eau chaude remplit un grand bassin public. Il reste tiède toute l'année, sans machine. Le fer dans l'eau la rend orange.
Certaines maisons utilisent aussi cette chaleur pour l'eau chaude. Il n'y a pas besoin de feu. Tout le village vit grâce au volcan en dessous.
Polly se posa près du bassin chaud. Elle sentit la chaleur. Ce village a trouvé une façon maligne d'utiliser son volcan.
That's the story.
