The chest is quite heavy and rattles when shaken, as if filled with coin. When Xavier carries it out to the first mate, she withdraws fearfully. ”I don’t know where the key is,” she answers tonelessly. Despite the assurances given by Xavier and Sanae, she seems quite upset to see the chest in their possession. Xavier examines the strongbox closely, but can detect no trap. The first mate echoes Xavier’s words about lizardmen unenthusiastically, her gaze shifting from the strongbox to Sanae’s sword. At this point, they hear Erin call down from the upper deck.Meanwhlle, Calabas crawls out from beneath the pilot’s chair. Eff Flat notes that his eyes are puffy and his face is stained with tears. The khorovar shifts uncomfortably, then mutters ”Excuse me,” almost under his breath. Without another word he steps off the back of the boat. He does not go far, but fidgets around in the water, always with one hand clinging to the side of the boat. The three soldiers eye him with amazement, but are careful not to move around too much under the watchful gaze of Eff Flat and the growling dog.Are you taking the strongbox with you? What are you doing with your four prisoners (one on the patrol boat, guarded by ‘he has no name’ and Old Borden, and three on Kolbek’s Pride, guarded by Eff Flat and dog)?</blockquote>
