It was at the docks of Halsron, Maddy's hometown, where he and Araevin first met. Araevin's ship had just made it past a storm and was looking for repairs and supplies. Maddy, seeing the flashy pirate wave around some gold, decided to steal from him...and was caught almost immediately. However, Araevin took pity on the boy and hired him into his crew. There Maddy learned to open up, be himself, and fall in love with Araevin himself.

This was not fated to last, however, because after sailing the seas together for some time, Maddy disappears, and doesn't show himself again until five years later, when things are different and very inconvenient. He wants to earn Araevin's forgiveness, but can he, after all this time?
