Foul Play Chapter 5-6

In which a night pilgrimage to the harbour reveals unexpected departures and tender sorrows beneath starlight, while a young man’s heart wrestles with despair and secret devotion amidst the shadows of love and duty. Meanwhile, the humdrum of colonial commerce conceals a curious nocturnal intruder and the diligent custody of treasure, as one whose passion is both his torment and his cloak prepares to assume a new guise and soldier on against the tide of fortune and fate.
