Lucas swam peacefully through the water, a whole week had passed and he was not lacking in hunger, but so many years of famine and difficult times had taught him to combat this problem.

Now his only objective was to reach the island alive and luckily he was achieving it, he came across more and more birds and from time to time he found a buoy that indicated the direction of the port to the approaching ships.

The sea was quite vast and empty, it was difficult to find another creature and Lucas didn't want to do it either. Swimming through the sea for a week, being absolutely alone, towards an apparent destination hidden on the horizon, somehow made Lucas impatient, although he felt free and happy to be able to use his body and not have to hide from everyone in a shell.

But that freedom also caused him fear, swimming alone was annoying, he was very insecure, he never knew if something was going to kill him in a few hours and that was beginning to affect his head.

There was too much empty space around Lucas and no one to help him, but if he wanted to live, he had to fight this fear and keep swimming towards safe land.

'How uncomfortable...it reminds me of when they kicked me out...' Lucas thought, his strategy to survive the loneliness of his life had been to talk to himself, he had used it many times, in prison, as a slave in the mines and on the ship helping as a cabin boy.

``On the ship it wasn't the same... there were people helping me, the atmosphere was very good until the sirens happened and everything went to shit... as always... Maybe I shouldn't have helped Ricardo... Perhaps I just should have handed him over to the captain... Everything would have been different' Lucas thought as he swam, each phrase he reflected on took time and he used that time to keep swimming towards nothing.

'He wouldn't have done it for me...would he? ... No, I wouldn't have ... They never do ... But hey, I can always put it out of my head when I get to port ... and start from scratch again ... But first I have to deliver the message ... The priest promised me a position in the church if I did...and I want it...being part of the church of El Galeón gives security...and there is the old man' . Lucas meditated with much pause, trying to make his words in his mind drown the nerves of loneliness and the danger of the seas.

'I hope the priest didn't lie either...' Lucas thought, that was his deepest fear, if this message didn't come with the reward, he didn't know what to do with his life.

Lucas got out of jail, was free and lost that freedom again being a slave in a mine, then they sold him to the church of the Galleon as a sacrifice, since his body was too weak to continue mining.

But before Lucas reached port, they attacked the church ship, a priest recognized that it was a newt, it was the first time in his life that someone recognized him being in his human form. The priest saw that Lucas was the only one who could get out alive and gave him a vial and forced him to insert it into his leg and then sewed up the wound. That vial had the relic and the message.

Deep down, for the Galleon church, Lucas was just a slave sending an important message, they could not give him the promised position, enslave him again and sacrifice him, but the relic forced Lucas to deliver the message and that's where the problems of this story begin. .

But Lucas spent many months with the relic. The captain and Ron showed Lucas some of his secrets, he believed that he could defeat her and achieve his goals, even if the church betrayed him in the end.

'Luckily, I trusted the Seal and told him everything... he didn't betray me until the end... and he showed me the way to continue living and living well, enjoying life' Lucas said thoughtfully, he only he had to follow the Seal's plan that had shown him a way out of this journey to death alive.

The most interesting thing about Lucas's life story is that there was always one: La Foca, Amanda, who ended up saving his life, but he always lost them in one way or another unfortunately for him, but they also appeared several: Wiliam, Ricardo, etc. that ended up complicating Lucas's life directly or indirectly...
