Glancing down at her cup and took a swallow from it before Alysneri starts eyeing this woman smiling at her. She gestured to herself and replied "Alysneri."

Courtnay picked up the parchment and peered at it, hoping to somehow divine some meaning behind the letters, but it was hopeless. He cursed and handed it to one of his men. "Keep it like that, don't roll it up. Might damage the parchment. We'll see if anyone back at the Rock can make anything of it," he said.
Courtnay knelt by the body and scooped up the coins, squinting at them and trying to work out if he had seen them before. He'd known many coins in his time, plundered from this ship or that - silver and copper and gold coins, square or circular or hexagonal or other, stranger shapes, stamped with king's heads or god's symbols or fanciful creatures.
"Take him back on the ship," he commanded. "Someone on the Rock might be able to recognise something about him. Search the rest of the island. There might be something more hidden around here."
