They did indeed arrive to a sandy shore of a little island. There were boats decorating the shoreline and Serenica thought that the people who lived here probably went fishing often. Otherwise the island looked rather barren. There were strange trees with long leaves erupting at the top of their trunks. The Admiral said they were palm trees. Serenica didn't know if he was lying. She had thought palm trees to be different.
She was given the option to stay on the shore, but she preferred to go to the inland area with Spade and Myorka. They said they needed diplomacy. Serenica considered herself to be adept in that. She hadn't been killed yet, after all.
