Maria de Rai'naren, or Lady Maria, had gotten used to life on a pirate ship, with the crew of the Sea Sapphire II. However, Marcello, Jonju, and several other crew members had either left entirely or taken extended shore leave to look for someone to replace the two Lucain that had just... left. She hadn't expected the three girls to stay around, but for their adopted father to just mysteriously disappear...!
"I suppose it's no use crying over spilt milk," Maria said lazily, taking out her fan and holding it deliberately. "There will be more crew aside from Marcello and Jonju. I'm sure that the captain will find someone else to replace them."
