The Santa Maria stayed at the port of the Isle of Cyrin.
The distinguished guests disembarked one by one, choosing to remain silent about the events of the previous night.

Selena and her companions got off the ship.
Sterling Norwood and Hughes conversed on the side.

"But outside of The Northern Realm, there are a few stubborn entities; I think their expansion won't be too smooth..."
Selena paused upon hearing Hughes' words.
