Les navires gagnèrent en hauteur, se couvrirent de pierre sombre et leurs mâts s'étirèrent vers le ciel, devenant aussi hauts que des tours dont les flèches frôlent les étoiles.
The ships grew taller, coated themselves in dark stone, and their masts and posts reached into the sky until they were tall as towers, with spires that scratched the stars.
