The Belligerents made ready for their departure from the Church of the Mire Made to Serenity Shores when they realized Brine could teleport them into the city as he had teleported them out before
Flapjack strongarmed Brine into agreeing to the plan by threatening to burn down his church
The group said goodbye for now to Dahlia, Lily, and Arakis, but took Vainya with them due to her knowledge of the city
They also dressed in the adornments of the Golden Guards they had killed outside the church
They were teleported to Serenity Shores, and after escaping the home of a guard by convincing his child he was dreaming of a group of guards appearing in his bedroom, they made for the docks
Arriving, they noticed a commotion and spied a woman picking pockets and tried to apprehend her as fake Golden Guards
They learned her name was Captain Saoirse Chataway
She seemed to immediately see through their rouse and offered them a job seeking out and kidnapping a man named Varsmak, who apparently had something she wanted but he didn't know he had it
The group agreed in exchange for the use of her ship, however when arriving where it was docked, they found it has been confiscated by the Golden Guard, and Captain Chataway drew her blade and bade the group to retake her ship
