The ship successfully returned to the shore. Caramel left even before Grey would be ready to leave. She was already avoiding him. Grey drove Beatrice home and left the elders in charge.

Grey nodded briefly. "Are you leaving with her?"

Beatrice hesitated. "I guess I will have to stay behind. I mean I need to help you here."

Grey nodded briefly. "It is. Just update me if anything comes up."
