After a day of resting, healing, shopping and interviewing in the port of Marit, the party gathers on the docks where the crew are working to load up their three ships--the Blue Moon, the Salty Dwarf and the Blue Diamond.
"Looks like the last of the supplies is being loaded up now, captain," Auli'i says to Kalana. "Or...admiral? Anyway, Bayla is ready to plot our course, wherever that may be."
============
It is Saffir 13th, at 10 AM. Everyone is back to full health.

"Admiral?" Kalana asks then laughs lightly. "With my fleet of three ships. I'm still the Captain of the Blue Moon, so Captain is fine," she says to Auli'i. She walks over to Bayla. "So Julak said that the Lleiset was around Octhanus, so we should probably head that way."

"Aye, cap'n, I'll plot a course to the island of Octhanus right away," Bayla says, gathering up her maps and tools and heading aboard the Blue Moon.

"You two are captains now," Kalana says. "You are in charge of those ships, and the crew on those ships," she says. "I'm going to be teaching this crew on how to use crossbows, but the people that have been hired should be able to already do that on the cargo ships. It should be smooth sailing for the two of you."

Brax salutes Kalana and heads off to his ship and he thinks about how strange that feels when he thinks about it "I s'pose your leading an we're following aye Admiral?" the dwarf says with a sly smile and a bit of a chuckle in saying the "new title" for Kalana.

"Hey Captain Brax!" Senllip gestures courtesy to Brax. "It just rolls on the tongue." he smiles.
On the Blue Diamond he goes around checking on his people, memorizing their names and details about their own lives when they share it. Giving feedbacks and compliments where it fits. After having few words with each mariner, he takes some time to inspect his people from the side. Learning each person attitude and their relationships. Then he goes to his navigator and explains they will follow to the Blue Moon to Ochtanus but route preparation should be made carefully as if they were sailing alone.
Senllip was used to be responsible to many peoples lives, especially when he helped serving food on the Tiaru, but having a ship under his command made him much more serious halfling. Which still mean light headed in any other race standards, but still...

Each of the captains board their respective ships.
From what Senllip can tell from his new crew, they were all hired in Doubloon, so they are a rough and tumble bunch. In fact, there's a pretty good chance most, if not all of them, are pirates. Or were. They seem quite skilled and experienced at sailing a ship, but none are particularly friendly.
The Blue Moon sets sail first, and the two cargo ships follow suit, staying at a close enough distance to keep it in sight but not so close as to risk accidentally ramming it.
"What's the plan once we reach Octhanus Island?" Auli'i asks Kalana.

"As was stated, there aren't any ports, but I do want to land all the same. Before we continue on, I have something to tell all of you," Kalana explains. " and I will leave it up to all of you if you want to continue with my mission or not."

Brax walks around the ship topside keeping an eye on his crew to get a better idea about them as they sail "Steady as she goes, keep followin the Blue Moon. She's our flagship."

Bayla and Auli'i patiently await to hear what Kalana has to say.
