Between retches he cursed himself, the cook, and the gods above, and yet the listing and bobbing of the river-galley refused his stomach any respite. He could hear unrestrained snickers all around as the crew watched the guardian of the realm brought low by a few languorous waves. The Brinewater, greatest river of the northern continent
