The fishermen's faces were etched with deep contours by the sunlight, sweat sparkling on their foreheads, yet their lips harbored satisfied smiles.
However, this tranquility and anticipation were torn apart by a sudden, unusual noise.
The sound, coming from a distance and growing nearer, pierced through the sea breeze with an indescribable strength, causing everyone's heartstrings to instantly tense.
The sound was both unfamiliar and shocking, as if a call was coming from afar, leading all the fishermen to involuntarily stop their work and look in its direction.
Their gazes stretched beyond the ship's rail, looking toward the source of the sound with probing eyes.
And with that glance, eternities seemed to pass,
prompting all the fishermen to widen their eyes in disbelief.
Upon the sea's surface, a magnificent scene slowly unfolded.
It was a pod of orcas, charging through the water with a momentum that seemed to move mountains!
