Ep. 136 - Ch. 22 Ship of Magic - Plots and Perils

Captain Kennit misses another opportunity to capture a liveship, but Etta suggests a plan that might work for the future. Meanwhile, both of our liveships, Paragon and Vivacia, are in turmoil; the former from being sold soon and the latter from Wintrow leaving in the harbor of Jamaillia amidst sleeping serpents.  Althea and Brashen have to contend with a live serpent, however, trying to get a meal and not caring whether it sinks their ship or not. They struggle to survive and to navigate their new relationship dynamics. We're reading Ship of Magic by Robin Hobb, book 1 of the Liveship Traders in The Realm of the Elderlings.
