She slept in the sea when she got tired and resumed her trip after she woke up When she was thirsty, she drank rain water and ate fish when hungry

Joan did not kno long she had to live like this

At first, she had been trying to track tiradually lost the track of ti she had been swi aimlessly in the ocean Perhaps, it had been more than half a year now

Joan alht In fact, she had cried nued with the seawater and became a part of the ocean

She was so tired

So tired indeed

Even when she was asleep, she could not totally relax on the surface of the water, otherwise ospreys and other aniulf her down, their pecks were sharp and painful Also, she could be seen by Sea Ghosts and those ship-like monsters

Joan had actually encountered the the past few months

Every time she had been scared to death

Fortunately, she had always ot additional wounds during the escape

There were hly of The skin exposed in the air turned white As she had been in the water for so long, some wounds started to decay What orse, some parastic worms had found her as their new host and nested in her wounds It was excruciatingly painful to pull them off the body

The time she spent in the water could allow her to have five round-trips from Neverwinter to the Shadow Islands However, why could she still not see her destination?

His Majesty said that Earth was round Could he have lied to her?

If His Majesty had indeed lied, she would swipe his face with her scales if she got such a chance in the future!

But she had to first get to Neverwinter…

Joan took a deep breath and encouraged herself She reive up and an to produce a series of "Ya&8221; sounds over the sea

A moment later, she heard her echoes, "Ya, ya&8221;

A little shocked, she traced the echoes It was a gloomy day today A thin veil of mist pers within a few kilometers, just like the Shadow Islands ater went down Since there was nothing at the front, Joan swam in that direction for another half an hour or so and finally spied soainst the mist

It looked like… a rock on the surface of the water
