Sarah is the daughter of an innkeeper, nowhere near upper-class. She feels the need to point out - "It isn't my castle! It is the Count's!"

"In Switzerland? But..." She trails off. "Where is this boat going?"

"Don't worry, we're not in Switzerland now. I don't really know if the boat is headed anywhere in particular; no one I've talked to ever remembers it stopping."

"Then what?" She's never heard of a boat that isn't going anywhere, or that never stops - wouldn't they run out of food? "Where did it start out?"
