It had only taken the group a couple weeks to reach the beach of Split Island Ocean. Namesake given due to the fact it only surrounds a couple small islands otherwise it was vast and open.
There was a boat waiting for them already, beached, which was arranged ahead of time by Tao; and perhaps unlucky or lucky, it was a small wooden vessel barely bigger than a rowboat.
Cherri was the only one that was okay with riding in such a small boat, the others were a bit more reluctant.
"Are you sure you want to destroy rot?" Viktor complained as he held the boat steady for the rest to get into it.
"Were you once a strong, brave guard?" Mana snapped back with a slight smirk as she hopped into the boat first. "Of course I want to destroy the disease. No matter what happens, I will not stop until I do."
Cherri climbed in while her parents bickered, though Fluffy was the one that spoke up. "I mean, if you're dead that'd stop you wouldn't it?"
