Mingon:<br/><br/>Here’s a thought I’m having…<br/><br/>Perhaps Lazarette was being pursued by someone?  Maybe sent by her mother to bring her back?  Or just bring the sword back?  Maybe Erianthe was even part of such a group of people.<br/>Alternatively, someone might have been kidnapping her to use against her father.<br/>Erianthe wound up helping her escape from these pursuers and Lazarette offered her one of the contacts out of gratitude and hope for friendship?  Or perhaps the confrontation lead to reasons they would be less welcome on the mainland, such as someone important dying, or someone proud and important defeated and scarred?
