It didn't took long until the Farruners saw themselves aboard the White Oak and subsequently on the high sea.

"Your father's vessel, Wym? Why not yours?", Donel asked once they were already on board.

"It is mine now, Captain Vici. I am the Captain of the White Oak.", Wym answered, bluntly hinting that his father was not dwelling amongst the living any longer.

"Your father...", Donel's voice failed.

The fat lord and the imperial captain were long term friends and that was one of the many reasons that Donel enlisted his help when King Tormund was preparing the plans. News of his old friend's demise were unexpected, even with Lord Bathou's condition after the Battle of Dunkarn Haven.

"Oh, no...No, Captain Vici, my father still lives. He is still fighting for his life with all his might, but King Tormund gave me the commad of his ship when he took Haven's Pride to himself and renamed it.", Wym explained, quickly realizing the misleading hint he had given.

Donel sighed in relief before frowning in confusion.

"Why would the King need your vessel, Wym?", he worded his confusion.

"That is something only I can answer for you, Knight-Captain...", Balla's voice came as a surprise for both the nobleman and the knight.

"My Princess?", Donel let out after he turned to face her.

"My father wishes to end the civil war against Duke Vladir's General with a ruse. He says and I quote 'Lead the bloody bastards to encounter eachother so they can kill themselves'.", Balla finally explained, although not in a fulfilling manner.

"I fail to understand your father's plans, Princess Balla. Our enemy is landbound and not sea...", Captain Vici scratched his chin, thinking.

"Well, the only person who understood my father's thinking is somewhere south playing 'pirate crew' while his family suffers... So I wouldn't think we'll understand what my father plans to do until it is done.", the princess commented, taking shot at her older brother and finally drawing silence from the people around her.

The Princess, then, proceeded to walk away from the duo, towards the edge of the main deck. Moments later, her beloved silence was broken by an unwelcomed guest.

"Your father has his reasons, Balla... It is not wise to undermine his orders in front of ones such as Donel Vici.", Jacques Chandagnac, her father's Quartermaster said.

"Yes, much like the brilliant reason he had when dissolvinf the treaty with the pirates. My father is losing his mind and pray that our journey home to be less adventurous, since this crew had no rest after fighting off those 2 pirate ships. You trust my father blindly, Jacques and that is your problem...now scram, I must be alone.", the Princess spat, waving the handsome breton away.

She has had enough with pirates for a lifetime, specially the friendly ones.
