A huge swarm of bigeye trevally appeared in front of me out of the azure blue,
like thousands of horsemen riding through the wilderness, rolling up dust.
The school was constantly in great motion, changing its shape into columns and spirals.
It was an overwhelming presence, and I could clearly sense what it meant.
