Year 19. The Ookamalas realize that the fish they catch, known as Peconn, produce a compound very similar to Yrrondi. They also learn that Yrrondi is edible and has many health benefits. The Ookamalas feed their pet fish using berries, which they grow in a small compartment by using a shadoof-like tool called a Tlinge to pour water on the berries, making them ripen. Then they crush the ripe berries, add some Yrrondi, and produce Yrrondi soup. This food encourages the Peconn to secrete synthetic Yrrondi.

Unfortunately, a storm strikes the Ookamala boat, causing it to flood. However, as Yrrondi is only slightly more dense than water, it takes 43 hours for the boat to sink. In this time, the Ookamalas make two lifeboats out of Yrrondi and stock them with fish, berries, and more Yrrondi. Sadly, some Ookamlas do not make it onto the boats and drown. They cannot make a sail, so they make oars out of Yrrondi glued together by the berries, known as Srongh.
