===A month Later===
They find themselves on the ship. Nilrem remembers the name , an old friend of nobles of Augustus. The Captain remembers Lady Lazul staring at him, her face fades into someone else's. Archie remembers soft textile on his arms and legs, with vivid colors and long drapes, but cold. Saol checks their coins, none of them have The White Prince's face on them, they are not from the Dardens.
