We weren't really supposed to cross most of them anyway, but I never had need of a boat. [She doesn't need help either, her balance is impeccable to the point of being almost uncanny but she accepts it anyway, thanking the worker before she settles into the seat beside Set.]
My people have always loved water though. We were drawn to the stars and the sea and Ulmo, the Valar of the sea, has always been good to us. They say he argues our case more than any other. [Though it hardly seems to have mattered in the end.]
This is a magnificent boat. Unlike those I have seen, though they are few.
