Synopsis
The Lunar Rose Guild Match
Versa's Journey
While waiting in the stands to descend for their next match, Versa is lost in thought. What lasts a few moments in real time is the process of recalling lost memories, specifically those between the fateful encounter of mutiny aboard the Avarice and her beaching on the shores of Lothbridge Swamp several days later.
The memory begins on the cold ground. Very woozy, she doesn't see much more around her other than trees before the pain and nausea causes her to pass out. She awakens again, this time in significantly less discomfort. She notices she's laying on a bedroll in fresh, dry clothing. She successfully sits up with some effort and surveys her surroundings, noting the open sky above the dense wall of trees that surrounds her with the exception of one opening. Through the opening enters a triton man, holding a bowl with a rag partially submerged in it.
He expresses relief that Versa is finally awake, remarking that he did his best to treat her wounds, but without the antidote in her coat pocket, she may not have made it. Versa, still weak from the in-progress recovery, grapples both with her physical injury as well as emotional strife. The triton introduces himself as Wairan, and urges her to take it easy. Inquiring where she is, he explains he happened upon her drowning body while out gathering supplies, and took her back to his home - a small, mobile island. He helps her up and the two walk to the stern of the island and sit along its shore.
After preliminary conversation about Versa's ordeal that led to her current situation, he assures her that she is free to stay until she feels fit to leave and confront all the unknowns that plague her. He departs but the void is quickly filled by a cast of talking creatures, namely a sea squirrel, a tortoise, and a pug. The inquisitive group probe at Versa's current predicament, offering advice that ranges from innocently useless to genuinely insightful.
