Since the pirate attack, there had been few surprises, with smooth sailing all the way.
The old captain took some people to control the clipper while also sharing some of the cargo and passengers, which alleviated the crowding on board.

"Land! It's land! Go quickly and inform the Lord!"
The lookout perched at the top of the mast with a telescope suddenly shouted as if he had discovered something.
The ship grew bustling as news of their approach to land spread quickly.
Upon hearing the news, Lance also came out to look towards the horizon. It had been nearly half a month since he left Hamlet, and now, finally returning, his heart inevitably stirred with excitement.
I wonder how things are in the town?
