With Elisheba now gone, Altair felt like he was missing a piece of himself. That rod had been with him since he was very young, and he made it with his own hands. Being without it made him feel... naked. But Altair knew that the rod was a tool for protection, not for liberation. No, his sword would be a much better weapon for that purpose. But, he did feel like a change of scenery would do him well. After all, he was a wanted man now in Heliohapt, and though nobody knew it was him exactly, he didn't want to overstay his welcome. Altair chartered a boat to get across the ocean to Reim. This was another country where slavery was a big probelm, and Altair felt that he could do some good over there.
Altair watched from the boat as they prepared to disembark. Many people were watching the merchant ship set sail. some children waved, prompting Altair to wave back. It was a nice day, and definitely relaxing to feel the gentle rocking of the boat and the beating of the sun on his neck. Altair wondered what kind of people he might meet in this new country, and whether or not they might sympathize with his cause.
