Mirielle took a deep breath of the brisk ocean air. One day, she and the Captain and crew would go far, far away on the ocean. She would gather treasure and have fun adventures, and come back one day to her family, to shower them with gifts and maybe make up for running away and becoming a pirate on them.
"Capitaine?" she called out, wondering where Essex had gone. Ever since he had accepted her into his crew, she had been following him like a puppy, entranced with his every movement. It may have been bothersome, but she was sure to keep rather quiet, listening to his various stories of adventure. "Capitaine, où êtes-vous?" she said, asking where he was.
