Kapal pagi merapat di Stromness. Polly melangkah ke batu yang basah. Anginnya tidak berhenti. Seekor anjing collie duduk di dermaga. "Bisakah Anda menunjukkan jalannya?"
Polly belum tahu mau ke mana. Di sini ada sekitar tujuh puluh pulau. Hanya sekitar dua puluh yang ada penghuninya. "Bisakah Anda memberi tahu saya di mana saya bisa naik bus?" tanyanya.
"Berapa lama jalan kaki ke pusat kota?" Anjing itu melihat satu jalan yang sempit. Sebelas menit, katanya.
"Bisakah Anda memberi tahu saya apakah ada acara menarik hari ini?" Jadwal kapal adalah berita di sini, katanya. Ada kapel yang dibangun para tahanan. Ada desa di bawah pasir.
That's the story.
