Children of the Whales, Vol. 1 Quotes

“We lived hand in hand with the sand, the wind and the sun. When the wind blew strong, the sand from the sea whirled up and violently battered the Mud Whale. The grains would get inside the keep and stick to people's skin. When the sun shone, the mud walls, the drifts of sand, and the grains on people's skin all sparkled.”
― Abi Umeda, Children of the Whales, Vol. 1

“With enormous claws, the angel of slaughter tore open our paradise.”
― Abi Umeda, Les Enfants de la Baleine, Tome 1
