Summary
It’s been two long, long weeks. Two weeks of sitting in a huge bare room, nothing left but a bed and a previously smooth, beautiful table, now pockmarked with knife gouges. Two weeks of throwing the crew at any ship they come across, fighting with vicious, brutal efficiency. Two weeks of drowning in rum and gin and anything he can get his hands on. Two weeks of wondering how long he has to keep doing this before it all just ends.

After a whirlwind few months together, Ed believes that his wordkeeper has chosen his wife and family over being with him. As he tries to cope with the rejection, he gets more bad news: Stede has died. With that news, he loses all pretense of being able to keep it together.
Stede has made the decision to give up everything in his old life to go home to Ed, the love of his life. Despite his initial concerns about Ed not being his wordkeeper, he's all in. First, he just has to find his way back.
