Returning to Doris Island

The third day.

Aboard the ship sailing from Atlantis to Athena Island.

Naturally, it was because there was now a sixth person on the ship.

"So this ship can only operate if Aga supplies it with magic power." Elma had never understood these things before, so she found it quite novel now that she did.
