The Belligerents sailed toward Cypress aboard the Gravy Trained a pirate ship out of Grugar's Anchor, and captained by a Gorgon named Madigan Made, who, upon appearing to the crew, turned Raithe and Hukbi to stone
To release them from the curse, the demanded financial compensation, which was provided by the group, while she flirted with Flapjack
It soon became apparent there was not enough food for everyone on board, and so Captain Made ordered the black flag to be run up the mast and to hunt down a ship out of Trine
Raithe and the group convinced the crew to slow the ship to try a different approach to the plan. A crewman named Patty, a simple-minded dwarf, agreed to mutiny along with Flapjack if Raithe's plan to procure food failed.
Raithe called the crab people with his magical shell and soon the ship was awash with all manner of seafood, the crab people of the ocean repaying the kindness the Belligerents had shown them back during their first voyage
The crabs took the shell back, the debt now balanced
A crewman named Carmello made a feast of the seafood each night during the voyage and the Belligerents made friends with the crew of the Gravy Trained.
After a week of travel, the ship arrived at the Filotimo Gates of Cypress
