Abstract
I am on the Swedish west coast in an older time. We are staying in a house by the sea, waiting for some people coming from the sea. I ask my brother to prepare for the visit. I see now that the guests are coming—an old sailing ship with two masts is approaching. When the ship comes closer the water level sinks and a large stone becomes visible. The crew sails the ship near the stone. They throw an electric net over the stone and blast it into thousands of pieces that, like a white cloud, disappear in the air. I tell everyone in the house to stay away.
