== Plot ==
The party attempts to negotiate for their ships.
== Synopsis ==
The party are leading a “Captured” Sahge towards The Vice Admiral’s office. They’re prepared for anything. Kifo mentions that perhaps they could just buy the boats which Sonney reiterates that he means HE would by the boats. Mikey chimes in but Sonney offers him five hundred gold to not speak and he zips it, temporarily.  Fancy also points out that Mint probably thinks the Admiral is still alive so they could use that to their advantage. They arrive to see Mint, who now dons a special mask to protect the hole in his face while it heals. He immediately questions how Sonney got there but Sonney ignores him and asks about the ships. Mint is very upset since Sonney didn’t even check to see if he was alive after he was shot and declares their friendship over. Mint also mentions that a seagull just came in informing him about his new rank and the traitor. Sonney runs. The others just sit quietly, awaiting their fate. Kifo suggests trading Sonney for the three ships, The Marvelous Macaw, The Wailing Warden, and The Armadillo. Fancy steps in and mentions he’ll boost the deal by trading all four of these people for just his ship. Leader of the Rebellion, Son of Montgomery, and the Ghost of Benki as well as the traitor. Mikey breaks out in hysteria from all the fighting and Kifo counter bids again by offering The Pirate Lord for the Armadillo. He tacks on Mikey as a shipwright for good measure. Mint agrees to all offers and gives them a chance to run so Kifo traps Fancy against the wall and starts running followed shortly by Mikey and Sahge who can’t follow him through the walls. Sonney races to the dry dock and finds hundreds of ships being dismantled. He hides in one of the untouched ones and waits. Kifo on the other hand, seeks out the armory. Mikey and Sahge also find the dry dock and Mikey introduces Sahge to The Armadillo. 
Mwana is sitting in the captains quarters of the Daronna Rose, lost in the Painting of Bennsyn and Daronna, confident his relationship with Sahge could get to that point. Rika interrupts and gives him information about the “Mystery Couple” which doesn’t deter the Darfellan from his dreams. Rika also tells him that they cannot let Mikey die out there and he should go help them. He questions her and they discuss the term “Orphan” before she shows him some of her notes. Mwana decides to go after the land party and requests Gregory join him. Big mistake. Sonney is still hiding and spots Mikey and Sahge. Kifo is having trouble finding the Armory but he spots Nigel waking back up so he shadow-walls the man and interrogates him. He gets his answer and knock him back out. Sahge asks Mikey if he built the Ship and the boy lies and says he did. Sahge is impressed but not completely convinced. Before he can question him further Mikey attempts to deceive a passing soldier to help them get the ship back on water by claiming to be Mint’s new Vice Admiral. It fails. They jump on the ship and try to fire cannons and defend the ship. It’s not loaded. Mikey sucks. They get caught in a fight. Sahge, in an attempt to save Mikey who is surrounded, fires a Rocket at the crowd which kills most of them and knocks out Mikey. He hides the boy within the ship as Sonney joins the fray. Mwana awakens if front of the fort, no Gregory in sight. He heads into find the crew. Kifo finds the armory and collects a few minor things before blowing up the gunpowder ration, causing a massive fire in the fort.
Mint escapes with Fancy and everyone in the crew converges at the Armadillo. They hide out in the ship while everything around them burns. Sonney remembers his father’s jacket in the crow’s nest and exits the frying pan. It is a blaze of wonder and he gets his hair singed a bit but makes it back into the ship. They attempt to wait it out but Mikey needs medical attention and they don’t know how long or far the fire will spread. They decide to risk it and run into the inferno. They all make it, barely and immediately head back towards the beach, No sleep for two days. They realize Sirene has left so they get back on the Daronna Rose and head back towards Ere. 
Kifo calls a meeting and sets a game plan once they hit the shore. The definition of Orphan comes back up and Kifo also realizing the translation error offers to be Mikey’s new dad since he did such a good job of that the last two kids. Mikey declines. They get back on track nd set the plan. Kifo, Sonney, Sahge, and Mwana will head inland to save the pirate lords while the rest prepare for a quick departure. They arrive at Ere and head towards their destination. Fancy is placed in a cell with Black Scalp, Mad Monty, and Tecnic. They discuss how screwed they are and Tecnic mentions not to underestimate his crew. Fancy tells them where they were when he left them and Tecnic second guesses his words.
