The first level of the Skyfall Tower went fast, but the second one? Damian and his crew sailed for three days following Radagak's ship. That land was farther than expected, and the idea of being fooled crossed Damian's mind, but it shouldn't be possible because the ships only went in a straight line.
It was not like they were sailing in circles; at least, it did not look like it from Damian's perspective, but maybe Radagak was fooling him sohow.
Damian wanted to go there and question him, but it was nightti, so he decided to stay put and wait. He and the other ship were making a stop, as both crews were getting tired, and it would be impossible to keep the ship going.
They feared soone would try sothing while the other slept, so Damian and Radagak placed their ships close together, using an anchor to stay put.
'I'll hit the bed now.'
Damian had not slept during the past few days, covering so of the other crew mbers' tasks so they could sleep. He wanted to reach the land as fast as possible, yet it was taking forever, so they all decided to make a decent stop and rest.
It was late at night. Damian and almost all of his crew were sleeping, except for a few who were still active, and those who were still active had an evil plan in mind.
"Your captain is sleeping, right?"
"Yes, he is. So how is the plan, exactly?"
"Captain Radagak is willing to accept all of you to ride on our ship, and we will explore the land together."
"What we are already doing, but Captain Dawn will be out of this? Why?"
"He's at the top of the ranking, that's why. Why should we help him get ahead of us?"
"I'll notify the others."
Movents happened that night with Damian's crew speaking to each other, explaining the plan they had in mind with Radagak's collaboration. Everyone accepted it without overthinking it, and they all left Damian's ship, riding on Radagak's one, which was close.
Damian was sleeping without knowing what was happening, and he only woke up after hearing the noise of an anchor retreating to its ship.
'Huh?'
He was sleepy, without thinking straight. Not that it mattered, though. It would not change the outco if Damian were as fast as possible.
Radagak moved his ship away and attacked him using the ship's cannons! Huge tal balls flew toward Damian's ship, wrecking it!
"What the fuck? Help, everyone!" Damian yelled to his crew, yet no one answered.
Then, before he could even leave the captain's room, a tal ball from one of the cannons destroyed the door, hitting him right in the chest!
It wasn't supposed to hurt Damian that badly, but the cannonball was of another type of material, one that wrecked through the defenses of beasts, aning a superhuman wouldn't have a good ti either.
The ball sent Damian flying, destroying the ship's walls and sending him to the water, with cracked ribs, arms, and legs. He was severely hurt, his vision blurred, and he passed out.
"Are you sure he's dead?"
"Don't worry; he can't be alive, especially with a dangerous sea like this one. Let's move out."
Damian's crew was still scared he might return to haunt them, but Radagak kept saying he couldn't be alive, and they trusted him.
Also, Damian had no ship, so it would be impossible to follow them or find the land even if he were alive. That was the thought everyone shared, making them finally sigh in relief, leaving the area afterward.

Damian was unconscious, falling down the water, hurt. It looked bad for him, and everyone believed he would die for certainty, yet he regained consciousness, realizing his situation.
He first felt pain and a sense of urgency as his breath was not endless, and Damian could drown as he fell deep into the ocean.
The act of swimming was impossible for him with his broken body, but his Telekineses ca to help him, allowing Damian to move his body with the power of his mind, not having to rely on his body.
'Those motherfuckers betrayed , even Radagak, fuck. I thought we had an agreent.'
It was not the first ti soone betrayed Damian, so he knew the feeling, but it still hurt; they almost killed him this ti! Damian would drown in the ocean if he did not have his Telekineses.
'I should get the fuck out of here before a beast appears.'
Damian was about to fly up to the surface when sothing approached him, a girl with long blond hair and she did not have legs but a fishtail!
'A rmaid?'
That was the first thing that ca to his mind. Damian had no idea if that girl was friendly, but it was not like he was in an excellent state to fight, so he begged that was the case!
She said nothing but grabbed Damian, swimming away from their location.
He made so gestures, moving his head, trying to tell her he needed to catch his breath! The rmaid understood it, moving her hand and creating a bubble around Damian's head, which allowed him to breathe and speak!
"Who are you? Are you friendly?"
That was the first sentence Damian said.
"A rmaid. It's been a long ti since humans appeared here. Yes, I am friendly. Hold on, and don't die!"
The rmaid's voice was calming, making Damian forget about the excruciating pain he felt all over his body. She swam fast, and Damian could barely look at the surrounding area before it disappeared.
He had no idea where she would take him, but after around 15 minutes of constant swimming, sothing entered their sights, an underground city with others that looked similar to the rmaid with Damian!
They all had fishtails, a city of rmaids and tritons. Damian never thought he would find sothing like Atlantis inside that dungeon floor, and just looking at it made him think about a secret place.
"Where are we?" Damian asked.
"Our city. We have doctors here to help you heal, and you can explain to what happened to you!" the rmaid said, smiling at Damian, and hell, she was beautiful.
