Chapter 7 Summary: “Physalia Physalia”

The following day, Alex rides to Port Tallon. He is amazed by the beauty of the fishing town. He notices the tin mine near Sayle Enterprises, which he knows to have been used for thousands of years before the tin ran out. They arrive at Sayle’s house. Inside, Alex sees several artworks including one called Judgment Day showing a “swirling mass of doomed souls and demons” (90). Alex also sees a large aquarium containing a jellyfish. Sayle greets him and says the jellyfish reminds him of himself. Alex accidentally introduces himself as Alex instead of Felix. However, he protects his cover by explaining that he likes to be called Alex because of the name’s connection to his favorite soccer team. Sayle is friendly toward Alex, making him question Blunt’s suspicions. Sayle introduces Alex to his butler, Mr. Grin, who used to catch knives with his teeth. An accident mutilated his mouth and cut out his tongue. Sayle has Mr. Grin show Alex to his room, the same one Ian stayed in when he was undercover as a security guard. Alex uses the bug detector Game Boy cartridge and finds one behind a picture on the wall.
