Samuel and Corvo left to get someone new, leaving the little trio of pirates without a boat. They sat by the water edge as the sun was beginning to set. "We have no boat, captain. We're boatless." Powder grumbled, tapping the water with a stick. "By the time they get back, Lydia will put me to bed. It's no fun." Emily grumbled unhappily. "We could ask her if we can have a pillow fort." Ekko suggested, nudging a pebble into the water. Emily perked up, eyes wide. "Ekko! You're a genius!" She swiftly got up, running into the pub.

Powder and Ekko made their way into the pub, Emily pleading to Lydia. "I promise I'll do an extra hour of studying!" Emily promised, Lydia glancing to the two. She then looked to Emily. "Fine. You'll do an extra hour of studies for a week. Let's get the room prepared." She offered.

Vi sat with her feet dangling off the edge, the yeasty smell of ale brewing behind her. She was waiting for Corvo to come back, holding a sword she found. "There you are." Vi looked back, seeing Admiral Havelock. "Here I am." She gave a soft chuckle, looking at the water once more. "I wanted to let you know, since these are your siblings and I know an honorable person when I see one... If anything was to happen, you and your family will be spared." He quietly reassured. "Especially since it'd break Lydia's heart, that poor woman has gone through enough." He handed Vi a cigar, leaving after she took it.

Mylo and Claggor soon sat beside Vi, confused themselves. "Pendleton is taking us in as his heirs to his aristocracy." Mylo blurted, Vi leaning back on her hands and stare at him. "Make good decisions, don't want to end up in one of the silver mines his family owns." Vi warned, their faces going pale. "I'm just kidding, Pendleton wouldn't do that." Vi reassured, getting up. As she glanced up, she saw Ekko, Emily, and Powder heading to the tower with Lydia. They carefully walked across the sheets of metal, giggling and talking to each other.

The moon hung high in the sky, Vi slowly coming into the tower. She saw the bed frames moved with the mattresses on the floor. Blankets created a shelter where Vi saw three figures in the light. They were quietly talking, tired in tone.

"Alright. Time to sleep." Lydia spoke up, spooking Vi. "Do we have to?" Ekko quietly and tiredly asked, rubbing his eye. "Yes. In the morning, you'll get to send Corvo off." Lydia promised. Vi slowly and carefully got down, seeing Corvo ready to leave. "Where are you going?" Vi whispered, confused. "I have to go to the Boyle Estate." Corvo spoke, glancing to the girl. "Can I join? I promise to stay on the boat-" "If you stay on the boat." Samuel grunted, making Vi promise. She crept onto the boat, ready to go.
