The sky grew darker as they marched, and as they emerged from the wood, a warm rain drizzled down over the rolling field they emerged into. The inclement weather seemed to lift Rey's spirits and though she didn't smile, she sat up a little straighter, looking around at the scenery in earnest — at least, until one of his men pointed out the trouble with rain and sailing; 'Bad weather for men at sea, Lord Commander.' He knew better to offer more than that.
Rey had never been on a ship, of course. A ship couldn't get you from Dorne to the Saltpans. A ship could not keep Lord Plutt off her back. A ship would not find her parents. ]
