When Solomon awoke the second time, it was because he heard the sound of heavy boots stomping towards him.
Upon opening his eyes, the face of a stern-browed instructor greets him. Luckily, it is not the one he tried to maim...
The instructor initially says nothing, but he does unlock Solomon's restraints.
"Out." Is all he bothers to say.
Solomon rises to his feet, and he naturally towers over the instructor.
Stepping past him, he moves past the maze of wooden crates before walking up a short staircase and pushing open the doors.
Sunlight hits Solomon in the face like a brick.
He raises his hand over his face while his eyes adjust, stepping across the deck of the ship with nothing covering his bare feet.
Solomon looks around, expecting someone to be there to meet him.
However, there was no one present. Not even so much as a bird.
A ramp was lowered from the deck to the old dock that Solomon had first arrived on.
