Bill stays in his position in the middle of the boat. His sword of blinding nothingness vanishes and he appears to be a bit calmer. The bartender has since sat down near his feet and seems to be trying to look away from him. Her verdant blush proves she doesn't quite have her heart in it.
The fog is completely lifted. Rather, a black wall of air is behind the boat. It seems to stretch all the way to the horizon in both directions. The ocean's swell gives the rest of the view a rounded shape, as if the world is suddenly smaller. The setting sun reveals a small break in the water. A greenish mound in the distance ahead sits like a pimple on the otherwise blemish free water. It is unmistakably an island.
Heather giggles at Matt and pokes her in the hip. "At this rate, you're going to need new pants, sister."
Hilda looks up from tending Kimiko. "Finally. I thought I'd never see the sun again."
(Boss Fight over. Oh yeah, I so just pulled one of those "essential to the plot, so it's not really a fight" fights. Don't you just feel cheated? Don't worry. The real thing is coming.)
