    Broken Voyagers

    Bette had swum ahead of her already, leading the dive as she always did.

    The brief was as per usual; try and make sense of the wreck and look for all three elements of the riddle. There was no need to look for a sail or sails as those would have, given the time elapsed, disintegrated long ago.

    The roman vessel would have counted two of those. The foresail which flew from a forward leaning mast and the front of the boat, and the main sail hanging from the main mast at the centre of the craft, and would have been adorned with paintings of mystical beasts.

    A search for a compass would also be fruitless. In 65BC, there were no compasses. Mariners found their way at sea using the Sun during the day and the stars at night. Their patterns guided them safely across the seas and oceans alike.

    Only one element was left to be uncovered: the keel. Tina strained to make sense of the wreck as they approached slowly. The current here was very strong and the biologist marvelled at the sponge divers who had made the discovery over a hundred years ago; no breathing apparatus and no suit to protect them from the cold water. They would have dived down to the bottom of the sea, relying solely on holding their breath as they went about collecting sponges to make their meagre living.

    A scene emerged in her mind. Maybe it had happened like so or maybe not but she imagined the proud and fearless divers as they dived from the jagged cliffs that towered above the surface; leaping through the air, the feel of the wind passing their faces, the blissful silence of their mind before they broke through the restless water. For a second there would be no sound, only sight – the shine of the sun upon the water’s surface, a wayward strand of hair, a lone bird flying just over the horizon; but then bursting through the liquid barrier, it would all change, the roar of the splash would fill their ears before silence again and a whole new submerged world would appear ready to be scavenged.

    Distances were hard to judge underwater and she became aware of currents tugging her. She kept alert to not lose her sense of direction but also because she knew all too well that the kind of underwater movements she was experiencing swept things up and collected them in corners and crevices. No stone as it were, needed to be left unturned. There were fast running out of time and out of wrecks to explore.

    1. Hi! You one of my favourite writers and i very glad and happy that you returned and finished this amazing story! Thank you very much!
      After i reading i leave another comment which will be more about story plot.

    2. Hi, Kins

      Oh my God, Kins, welcome back, after almost 2 years, it’s been a long time, but reading the whole story now I feel, the wait was worth.

      You have given us a quite wonderful and interesting story full of adventures and riddles and full of love of my favorite couple Bette and Tina.

      You ended the story in a very good way, but I feel as if I want to know more about them, if Bette gets the funding for her project in Mexico, the wedding, their partnership, what Tina does for a job… and many more things.

      I hope we could read more new beautiful stories from you; I like very much your style.
      Thank you very much and please, post other TIBETTE stories

    3. Ok, i read again this story, this time the whole and i’m ready to leave another comment.

      First – thank you again for finish the story.

      Second – happy to see happy final -treasure was found, bitch Kelly got lost. And i must say i like how you got rid from her – like in life we can say with 100% probability what happened – or she sank or she was killed by shark.

      Third – i like how you described Bette and Tina and love between them. I like it in all your stories (maybe with one exception – in Frozen beginnings i don’t like your Bette during the story, but in final she corrected :) )

      So, welcome back and maybe in the future we can see another great story from you? I really hope so.

    4. Hi Kins,
      Really enjoyed the read, thank you so much.
      A great Story and I loved reading it in one post. As an English Lady I really enjoyed your explanation of Cricket!
      I would love it if you would now consider a Sequel with these two characters.
      Thanks again for posting.

    6. Hi Kins,

      You took us trough a incredible journey! Full of adventures, little clues i tried to catch to find the treasure, the background on the history of those ships and of course the love between Bette & Tina.

      I really hope you will continu with a sequel or a new story.

    7. In-cre-di-ble! Kins, thank you so much for returning to this story and for giving us such a glorious and sweet ending. You’re such a talented writer. What a wonderful plot with astonishing details to the treasure hunt.

      I second the previous comments and hope you’ll find the inspiration (and time) to work on a sequel. Maybe Bette’s project in Mexico with a twist with some unexpected traces of a legendary Aztec treasure ;)

    8. Well ive read it at last.So pleased you managed to finish this story.I know how long it was in conception and all the research you did for its authenticity.
