Ring of Brodgar ipo kati ya maziwa mawili. Mawe hufanya duara lenye upana wa mita mia moja na nne. Watu waliijenga miaka elfu nne iliyopita.

Zamani kulikuwa na mawe karibu sitini. Sasa yamesimama thelathini na sita. Polly akazunguka nje. Hakuna aliyeandika kwa nini duara lipo hapo.

Kisha ikafika saa ya kuondoka. Ofisini mwa bandari kulikuwa na ndege nyuma ya kaunta. "Kivuko kinaondoka saa ngapi?" Polly akauliza. "Hii inagharimu kiasi gani?" Kisha akasema, "Ningependa kununua tikiti, tafadhali."

"Safari ya kuvuka inachukua muda gani?" akauliza mwisho. Asubuhi meli ikatoka ikipita rasi fupi. Visiwa vikazama nyuma yake, kimoja baada ya kingine.
