Even with the speed of the DeathsHead, it had taken weeks of stormy seas and tribulations, The DeathsHead had pulled into it's port. The island of Ivorius in the Seas of Frozen Time.
A haggard Nik called to David. "Wake up boy, we are finally here." he spoke quietly but could be heard very clearly.

David was on his feet in a moment. He had slept very lightly for weeks now, and had made himself of use as best he could.

"Good luck to you David, I must go on alone. As must all of the members of my crew. Try not to get yourself killed on this island. I would hate to have to tell Sarah." he spoke with intensity.

David was again silent.

He smiled brightly. "Don't worry though....you should be fine....."his smile faded slightly. Nik handed David one of his swords. "Just....be careful.... and don't go swimming in the Mermaid ponds. Trust me on that."

"I won't. " His demeanor had changed much over the months with pirates. No longer did he seem the playful, grinning boy, but instead a meloncholy man.

"I'm proud of you David. Yet, I am also disappointed. I wish we knew what Jaklyn was up to." he looked at the still water, then handed David a flare. "If you get into trouble, just remember, Fire is your friend." he smiled, the first true smile in months. "Good luck." he said while starting to walk to the ramp.

Nik stepped off the ship. "Alright boys, you know where to go and who to visit. I will be back at the ship in about three days.....make sure to be back before then....or you know what will happen." he walked into the wilderness.

"Thank you David."
The voice floated through on the wind, and a chuckle breathed near his ear. There was a slight disturbance in the air, and Jaklyn appeared, though her outline was fuzzy and unsure.
"Trade with me. Hurry, Arwin can only keep this magic for so long."
"Trade?" He asked confused.
Jaklyn's outline grew more indistinct. "You go home, and I go here. Home to the ship, home to Sarah. She awaits you."
She reached for the boy, and he took her hand. As his body appeared to lose substance, she became more real.

Scallahan held a musket to the back of Jaklyn's head. His height barely enough to reach it. "So, who might ye be?" he asked with a truly playful tone.

"Captain J. Ebon. " She replied, her tone not nearly as playful, yet not threatening. It was simply a statement. Her body was thin, and her normally grand clothes were ragged. However, she still carried herself with the deadly grace that was so much a part of her regal interior. Her face was drawn and her dark eyes haunted. It had taken much pleading and bargaining with Arlen, the witch, to achieve this goal.

Scallahan holstered his pistol. "It's not even loaded, you kno me bettar than tha' Jaklyn." he smiled. "Now turn round, so's me can get a better look at ye. Tain't seen ye since yer was about four." he pulled up his ever growing pants.

"Scallahan!" She said, a trace of surprise and enjoyment creeping into her flat tone. "It's been a long time. Your captain won't be happy when he finds me here. He did his best to keep me away."
