"It's all in the perspective," Rae remarks, wry and amused. The feeling here, in the jungle, surrounded by water, it's different than anything she's felt before. A wet heat like a pervasive sauna, the hot, humid air thick in the throat. It's different from anything she's experienced. "This is definitely the grandest boat I've ever seen, much less been on."
Those people who had cabins or houseboats on the lake near New Arcadia before the Wars... either no longer have enough money for such things, or they simply aren't around any more.
"I've been out on the lake with Mel a couple of times, but it was just a small rowboat we rented for the afternoon. Nothing like this."
