Four days later...

Thoris: "(vomiting) I'm almost out of stomach acid."

Makoh is leaning against the mast.

Makoh: "You've really got to take some medicine or something to help with your seasickness."

Veld is at the wheel.

Veld: "I can see if we can get some Sprixies to help enchant some herbs to help."

Rox is looking through the scope.

Owen: "Are you seeing anything?"

The path ahead is somewhat foggy.

Rox: "(focusing) I can't see through the fog."

Lariat: "(yawning) This is getting ridiculous, even for me. We should've seen anything by yesterday."

Makoh: "Do you need me to check things out?"

Veld: "How are you going to find your way back?"

Owen has an idea and ties a pretty decent rope around Makoh's waist.

Makoh: "I get it."

Makoh jumps into the ocean.

Owen: "Veld, you and me need to hold the rope in case it goes flying. Lariat you need to take the wheel."

Veld and Lariat follow instructions.

Lariat: "You just keep looking ahead Rox."

Rox: "(focusing) I'm on it!"

Makoh begins to swim forward incredibly fast.

Veld: "(struggling) I knew he was a fast swimmer, but that's insane!"

Makoh soon fades into the fog.

Rox: "I lost sight of him!"

Owen and Veld move to the front.

Owen: "(struggling) Then could you help with the rope?"

Rox grabs onto the rope behind Veld.

Rox: "(struggling) Could he go a bit slower?"

Lariat: "Too late now."

Suddenly, the rope stops moving.

Owen: "(afraid) Uh..."

A faint giggle is heard around them.

Thoris: "(dry heaving) What was that?"

Rox: "Sounded like someone laughing."

Veld quickly brings Owen and Rox close.

Veld: "(terrified) That was not okay!"

Lariat: "(calming) Makoh stops moving and a creepy laugh gets Veld to crumble."

Rox: "(struggling) And we should've hit land yesterday."

Owen: "What's happening?"

Most of them are stumped.

Lariat: "Sprixie tricks."

Veld: "T-Tricks?"

Lariat launches an arrow forward.

Lariat: "Sprixie are able to cast offensive magic powers and create illusions to defend themselves."

Voices soon echo throughout the area.

Voices: "So these people aren't with those plants?"

Makoh's Voice: "Yes! In fact we're fighting those things!"

The fog begins to fade.

Voices: "You're going to see the Queen when they arrive."

They can see the clear sky, and in turn land.

Makoh: "Guys!"

Makoh is on shore.

Veld: "(relieved) Thank gods that it was only an illusion."

Lariat: "Makoh was moving so fast, he broke through the illusion and onto shore."

The boat is docked on the shore, with three Sprixies and Makoh waiting.

Makoh: "So Lariat figured it out?"

Lariat: "Yes it seems that we got caught in the illusion during the night."

Sprixie 1: "I'm bringing the barrier back up, you two take this oddball group to the Queen."

Sprixies 2 and 3: "Yes ma'am! Follow us!"

The group follows after Thoris is done kissing the sand.
