Hopefully I didn't take too long, and people haven't jumped ship yet (pun or nah?) and Alex is caught up
Erik parried a blow, and grabbed the man's sword arm by the wrist, yanking him down into a knee to the face, knocking the man out cold. He turned to see Eren catch a blade to the stomach, and reached forward, grabbing him by the shoulder. Erik tried to pulled the man upright, but he was already deadweight and likely short for the world. Erik released him and ducked back from a wide swing as the Knights stepped through the door. Erik stepped backwards from the rank and file soldiers to put distance between him, them, and the newcomers. He didn't expect the diplomacy to follow.
Once the problem was sorted out, and the knights and soldiers left Erik looked up at Lazuli. "I think we could have handled them." The golem looked down at him, and shrugged. Erik helped clean up the first floor as Jericho and the Wizard went upstairs to heal his wounds. Once finished up, Erik went upstairs, leaving Lazuli on the first floor. They were unsure if the second floor could support his weight.
Erik watched the magic at work, and listened to their leader talk. "Well, its simple. Our options are pretty cut and dry." Erik said. "We take a boat outta here, sorry about your luck chuck. We sneak out. Or we try to fight our way through an army and make a lot of enemies." Erik scratched his face. "Or we could charter a boat, and have it drop us off further up the coast or some such thing. But can we afford it?"

After Grady and Alex had subdued their own pyurgist, Alex rolled her limp body off of himself, and sighed. Grady issued orders, and he nodded, standing up and brushing himself off. "Right-o." He said to himself. "Wounded get off this ship, if you can help, take the dead over to ours." He pointed at two sailors. "Get her over on our deck, and watch her. And get a few more strongarms over here." The men nodded and hustled at his orders. He ran a hand through his hair, and looked around at the bloodshed.
Alex enjoyed that shade of red, the deep vibrant kind that came from arterial blood. Alex drew his pistols and reloaded them, and was holstering them when Errol's boys showed up. "Right lads, uh. You three, are to go below decks and get a hold of our guys." Alex said. He surveyed the scene again, their wounded and dead back on his ship, and the marines who had defended their vessel sitting on the deck. Once the infiltration crew had come up, waited until they were on the Aleph null, then the boarding party, and finally he stepped off last. As they removed the boarding planks from the other ship he sent runners to gather others that didn't know to meet in the wardroom. Once they were off, he stooped down and scooped up Rei and carried her off to her room to lay her in her own bed.
After dropping Rei off, Alex went to the boarding party next and handed them a bottle of rum. "Good work today, Lads." He said. "Extra rum ration on the house for your work." He said smiling at them before stepping back out. He made certain to stop at end wounded man's cot and make sure they were fine, or asleep. Those that were awake he reassured they had done a fine job. Finally finished with his detours, Alex made his way to the Warroom and stepped in, the last one there. He nodded to everyone that was there. "Sorry about the delay, was checking on the lads. Didn't have time to tidy up" Alexander said with a toothy grin. His hair was still disheveled, and flecks of dried blood splatter were on his face. On Alex's arms and hands that volume of dried blood was a bit higher, as was expected of someone who had been in the thick of the fighting for several minutes.
Alex made his way to his chair, and reached down, undoing the belt he wore around his waist, with the holstered sword and pistol, and draped it over his chair back, taking a seat. "What did I miss?"
