The two decided to head back. They encountered no danger along the way, apart from a House Mouse that jumped out at them.
With the Flame Serpent's Fang on cooldown, Yang Yi switched to the Flintlock. A single shot turned the spherical mouse's body to mush, leaving only its head.

They took a shortcut back. With the shelter's structural diagram, they had no worries about getting lost, and returned to their original port in less than ten minutes.

Yang Yi made several circuits of the deck, driving
