Sure enough, Noelle was able to heal the lashes from yesterday's flogging. After her emotions settled down, she had some in the Infirmary assist her in applying healing salves, topping off with a touch of restoration magic to ensure that no scars remain. While some of the crew may hold onto their scars, Noelle found them to be unsightly. She decided to help maintain the ship since she had used practically all her time yesterday trying to get leads for Sharee, while her crew were often occupied spying on the Miriam. This did however, leave the ship's infirmary under supplied. Expectantly, after some of the crew came back from their shore leave they often returned with new scars and injuries that Noelle needed to patch up. And they did not make things easier for her between their own wounds and their gossip.

Though Sharee may have intended to withhold Noelle's illusions from the crew so that Noelle can still us it against them, it only served to be ripe materials for the crew to make up petty rumors to besmirch Noelle's name. Between her whipping and now, the name "Whore" and "Slattern" (For the more eloquent) somehow became synonymous to her. Noelle made no immediate efforts to counter the gossip, but she knew what power words had. If she let this continue, her authority would be undermined by the crew, regardless of her position as officer. To them, Noelle's punishment wasn't just a show of intimidation on Sharee's part, it was a chance to humiliate one of her officers. She'd have to find a way to redeem herself not just within the captain's eyes, but within the crew as well. Last thing she wanted was to be seen as a joke among the officers.

Between spying on the Mirian Noelle gathered local ingredients to create more potions, mainly to sell back to the populace for quick coin. She had much use from Naaji and Omdran, who stole small samples of moon sugar for her. While Sharee wanted to raid a bandit camp for a larger supply, Noelle helped herself to the small samples of Moon Sugar and refined them into skooma, adding cheap improvements to them so she could sell them back at Khenarthi's Roost. Using her magic, finding a buyer who would purchase her goods at well over it's regular cost was an easy task. She might as well have been taking the coins right out of their purses. Using the money she earned, she brought more regents for herself to use and occasionally some luxuries. Making use of Malakaus's enchanting services, she had her crossbow (Which she took from Gaius who kept to his longbow) enchanted. It took some time getting used to it, and even than she only brought it due to her own lack of range options. Noelle made a mental note to research a some elemental spells next time she finds a place that would sell her the magic texts.

Eventually Noelle arrived to Sharee's office. Despite what happened yesterday Noelle lost any feeling of contempt from Sharee, but also lost any feeling of familiarity either. Right now Sharee was merely Noelle's employer, with all that it implies. Noelle also decided to take Corrira with her for this mission. His expertise with Destruction and Conjuration magic would allow them to turn the tide of battle in a pitch, and should the battle be brought to them, he ensured her that he is quite capable of summoning creatures to protect them should none of their allies be near by. Not only that, but Noelle planned to use this outing to try to get to know Corrira better mainly so he could teach her destruction magic.

As Noelle waited she felt someone tap her shoulder. Turning to see who it was she saw Sarel, one of the officers, telling her about the garden she wanted on the ship. Noelle wondered when and who told Sarel about her request for it, though she imagined that Sharee told all her officers the truth behind yesterday's fiasco. She said nothing and simply waited in silence for the captain to address them.
