Leviathan Chapter 38 Summary

  • Alek runs through the airship, not sure where the gold bars would be hidden—then he realizes they must be near the bow, because the nose is tipping down.
  • He finds Volger already jettisoning the gold bars.
  • They argue as they pitch the gold overboard, because of course they do.
  • But then comes a warm and fuzzy moment as they come to a mutual realization that Volger has been protecting Alek at every turn, and Alek says his life must take a different path.
  • Also, they totes keep one gold bar—you don't want to throw all your money away, after all.
