1CONCLUSION Thus ends the voyage under the seas. What passed during that night--how the boat escaped from the eddies of
2the maelstrom--how Ned Land, Conseil, and myself ever came out of the gulf, I cannot tell. But when I returned to
3consciousness, I was lying in a fisherman's hut, on the Loffoden Isles. My two companions, safe and sound, were near me
4holding my hands. We embraced each other heartily. At that moment we could not think of returning to France. The means
5of communication between the north of Norway and the south are rare. And I am therefore obliged to wait for the
6steamboat running monthly from Cape North. And, among the worthy people who have so kindly received us, I revise my
7record of these adventures once more. Not a fact has been omitted, not a detail exaggerated. It is a faithful narrative
8of this incredible expedition in an element inaccessible to man, but to which Progress will one day open a road. Shall I
9be believed? I do not know. And it matters little, after all. What I now affirm is, that I have a right to speak of
10these seas, under which, in less than ten months, I have crossed 20,000 leagues in that submarine tour of the world,
11which has revealed so many wonders. But what has become of the Nautilus? Did it resist the pressure of the maelstrom?
12Does Captain Nemo still live? And does he still follow under the ocean those frightful retaliations? Or, did he stop
13after the last hecatomb? Will the waves one day carry to him this manuscript containing the history of his life? Shall I
14ever know the name of this man? Will the missing vessel tell us by its nationality that of Captain Nemo? I hope so. And
15I also hope that his powerful vessel has conquered the sea at its most terrible gulf, and that the Nautilus has survived
16where so many other vessels have been lost! If it be so--if Captain Nemo still inhabits the ocean, his adopted country,
17may hatred be appeased in that savage heart! May the contemplation of so many wonders extinguish for ever the spirit of
18vengeance! May the judge disappear, and the philosopher continue the peaceful exploration of the sea! If his destiny be
19strange, it is also sublime. Have I not understood it myself? Have I not lived ten months of this unnatural life? And to
20the question asked by Ecclesiastes three thousand years ago, "That which is far off and exceeding deep, who can find it
21out?" two men alone of all now living have the right to give an answer---- CAPTAIN NEMO AND MYSELF.
