As the boatmen enter the Island, three guards come in to the booth. Mart orders each one of them to take care of Tirad and Dalia and walks behind them as they step on the newly paved Island alleys. The sound of cheer comes from the stranded ship that can be seen from here with its lights on. Mart wants to show Tirad his achievements. To let him see how he has changed the Island for the better. Everything is renewed and in order. He wants him to see how he has reconstructed the Island and the Saviour Rules. Not all of this done solely to his advantage, he has done so much good for the others as well. Tirad needs to know every progression has its costs and victims and the bigger the transformation, the greater the sacrifice. Bringing down the Atlan Island, will be the greatest achievement in the history of the Saviour, in favour of all the people in the Oxan area. But to achieve, it they need to fight and in fighting they will lose men. They can never get so far confiscating Atlan riches by just sitting in the stranded Ship, teaching and lecturing. But Tirad doesn’t understand such things. He was always happy for the little he had and can never desire great things as he does.

Mart goes down with the guards and the prisoners to the lowest floor. His own cabin is next to the paper storage cabin. They have separated the forbidden library into two parts. One half is used for the storage of guns and ammunition and because of the heavy rain, they were forced to move the recycled papers back to the ship, stored in the other half of the library. The previous common library cabin is now Mart’s. He makes sure Tirad and Dalia are locked inside the cabin and a guard stands before the door, making sure they won’t get away. The dinner party has already started but he needs to go to his room first and see what’s inside Tirad’s bag. He sits behind his large desk and takes everything out. It’s mostly paper: Tirad’s drawings from Lealy, Dalia and the Oxan fire and another man that Mart guesses is the one who had helped him get away. The man is sketched in a laying position and seems wounded in the picture. He has some peculiar drawings as well. A woman like Dalia is giving birth in the water and there are dolphins surrounding her and a semi-human, semi-fish baby is swimming among the dolphins… Mart looks at the pictures quickly and puts them aside. But he stops as he sees Armina’s portrait. This proves Tirad had been in Parsana and they had helped him get away, but it’s no use anymore, he has already taken care of Parsana. There are other strange drawings from the drowned cities! He always thought Tirad couldn’t swim, but to dive? It is very strange to him. These detailed drawings are not just from Tirad’s imagination, he must have seen it first-hand. He looks in the bag again. There are no coins; he must have hid them in his boat somewhere. He just hopes the guards don’t be too greedy not to return the coins to him.
