An old Spanish sailor, Hector Del-Fuego Magellan, is spending his retirement days in solitude after returning to his hometown. He's a lonely man as he's outlived his closest friends and his life at sea prevented him from starting a family, which he now regrets. He wanders the beach as an old eccentric, claiming to be descended from the famous Magellan, carrying an old heirloom hourglass, and talking with the ocean as he reflects on his past and wonders if there is any real future to look forward to. |
