章節 111: Tranquil Islands, City of Alendras and the Healer Elara

As the Oceanic Orca, bearing the scars of a single, monumental battle, approached the bustling port city of Alendras, one of the inhabited islands of the Tranquil Islands chain, the townsfolk gathered on the docks, their expressions a mix of confusion and keen interest. The ship's arrival had caused quite a stir among the locals, who had never seen such a weathered and battle-worn vessel grace their shores. 

Whispers and hushed conversations rippled through the crowd as the townsfolk speculated about the Oceanic Orca's trials it had faced. "I think it was the Blackwater Pirates who did this," murmured one onlooker, casting a wary glance at the ship. "Nay, it was the cursed waters of the Leviathans Roost that brought such misfortune upon her," countered another, her eyes wide with superstition. "I say it was a clash with the Thalassaros," ventured a bold voice, sparking a mixture of awe and disbelief among the gathered crowd.
