They were only half way to India, but they already lost their boat and almost everything they had. All they
had in hands were small amount of cash and a map. They had to come up with a new plan to finish their
journey. After discussion, they decided to just walk as they did in the very beginning of the journey, but
there was another problem. They started their journey in the summer, and they were all in summer clothes.
But, the winter was just around the corner, and they needed something to wear. The friar was the only one
with money, and everyone started to suck up to the friar, the one with the money.
Although he had only little amount of money, he used all of his money to buy a soft and big blanket, that
would make everybody warm. Also, with that map, they just continued to go to the west. They had many
ideas to go to the West. For example, they first walked, secondly they ran, thirdly, they borrowed 2 horses
to go, lastly they walked again!
Well, the story ends here, and we do not know if they made it to India. As far as I know, they are still
walking to India.
