They traveled for hours and made many stops, but when night fell the captain came onto the deck and looked at the passengers talking and eating snacks, then looked at Nessa and approached her.
"Miss," He said and she looked at him and then smiled.
"Yes," She replied.
"With the water current, we'll arrive in Mascra by tomorrow; would you like to stay in my cabin?" He asked as she stared at him.
"Thank you, but don't you have to stay in there?" She asked.
"Well, I took my rest earlier, and I won't be using it for the night, so take it and make yourself comfortable, Skiro has taken a liking to you, and I want to help a friend of his," He responded.
"You like Skiro a lot, don't you?" He nodded when she asked.
"He may not be my kind, but he has always been helpful, better than some of my kind, so yes, I do," He responded to which she smiled.
"All right, I'll take the cabin, thank you," She said, and he smiled.
