Chapter Summaries & Analyses
At breakfast that morning, Arent joins Sara, Lia, and Haan. Haan is jovially engaged in conversation, something that shocks Sara and Lia; typically, he is quiet and angry, eating with them only out of duty. After Haan leaves, Arent tells Sara that Haan used to be so kind when they were younger, and he wonders what happened to him.
On the deck, Arent fills Sara and Lia in on the Eighth Lantern and his conversation with Sammy. He tells them two things to focus on: finding out more about Bosey and learning why her husband chose the Saardam. She mentions the large cargo, other than the Folly, that is on board, and says she will find out from him what it is. Meanwhile, Arent will be trying to figure out what Bosey’s bargain was and what “Laxagarr” means.
