(The Timeless Ocean, Leonardo's POV)
Just like the other men on board, Leonardo too felt the small ache of disappointment grab him when he failed to see the floating island upon reaching the designated co-ordinates.
Secretly, he had somehow been hoping that he would be the one to uncover the secret of that mysterious island, proving his worth as a reliable nephew to his uncle.
However, those dreams began to get crushed in real time now, when despite arriving at the location, he saw nothing worthwhile.
'Was it really a sailors tale? Nothing more than a ruse?'
He wondered, as he gazed at the horizon in disappointment, ready to retire to his quarters for the night, when suddenly, a flicker of golden light appeared in his peripheral vision.
It was neither bright, nor large, only a faint golden blink at the very edge of his vision, which appeared only for the briefest second before disappearing again.
"The hell?"
