“Can she be trusted?” Eliana asked.
“Of course not,” I responded.
I had taken a break from speaking to Calypso and was now on the deck of the ship. Alysia was now in the hold watching her, giving my mind some time to rest. Talking to that woman gave me a headache. Every word that came out of her mouth felt like an attempt to manipute me. I had told Eliana everything the other woman had told me, which admittedly wasn’t much, but still enough that it caused me to worry.
According to Calypso, she had attempted to gather the pirates and was pnning on organizing them, but then a rge and organized attack send the pirates running in every direction. Ever since Calypso cimed she had been on the run from these opponents, and that was why they were in desperate need of supplies and decided to attack the wrong ship.
“Was she able to tell you anything about these enemies?”
“She said that their ships were very rge. They didn’t have canons, but they used magic heavily.” I expined, my mouth twisting. “She also said she didn’t get a good look at them. According to her, right before they attacked, a fog moved and provided them cover as they unched their attacks.”
“That sounds difficult to believe,” Eliana responded.
I nodded. “Yeah, I’ve thought about bringing Celeste over. She can tell if someone is lying. However, I have a feeling that even if Calypso was lying, she’d be able to hide it.”
Ultimately, Eliana questioned her as well. Calypso was a bit more flirtatious with her until she left the room red-faced. She also flirted with Alysia, but she managed to keep her cool longer. Like that, Alysia and I kept exchanging shifts as we kept watch of her. I kept Anne away from her, considering she wanted to exercise the other woman. Instead, she interrogated the other pirates, and they seemed to colborate on her story.
“We’ll just have to take her with us to the Tearfall Isles.” Eliana decred. “We’ll leave it to them to decide if she’s guilty or not.”
“You’re wasting time,” Anne responded unhappily. “You might as well let me get rid of her. They’ll just rule to have her killed anyway. Even if she’s not the pirate king, she’s still a pirate captain, and if even half the things you’ve said about her are true, then she deserves death.”
This didn’t settle very well with me. I wanted her to pay for her crimes, and considering her predominate crime was attacking the Ost Republic, then a gathering of the leaders there would be a perfect time for her to fast justice. However, something about her words regarding vilins had gotten to me. Did she have some story in her past that expined all of the things she had done? Would it matter if I knew that story?
At least, it was enough to keep my mind off of the rocking of the boat, and two days ter we finally arrived at Tearfall Isles.
