Set Post-Calamity, Wyra has returned from her five month stint in a hideaway in Gyr Abania and is a full-fledged red mage, and is ready to be a pirate captain now too. Her childhood friend and romantic partner K'hali is receiving the offer to be Wyra's first and most important crewmate: her first mate. Perhaps Wyra has a double entendre to that, as K'hali looks at her with wide eyed innocence.
Wyra knows what she just asked was absurd.
"You want me to join you?" K'hali parrots back to her incredulously, her hand halfway to her mouth as if to demurely cover a gasp. "Wyra, don't be ridiculous! You haven't a ship or a crew." She frowns, her voice gentle and sympathetic.
There is an unspoken sentenceβ one that is a factβ that dangles between them and threatens to drop and shatter like glass. The Golden Coeurl is in the abyss. It is never coming back. Wyra interrupts before that can happen.
"I don't have a ship or a crew yet," she points out, leaning on the merchant stall K'hali's family had so neatly decorated. She smiles devilishly with teeth, in the way she knows that K'hali secretly loves in public and is vocal about in private. "An' that's where yer goin' to help me."
K'hali's eyes did indeed flicker to Wyra's fangs, and Wyra almost wonders if she didn't hear the question. "I beg your pardon?"
"Yer goin' to help me. I'm makin' ye an' offer, love." She holds out her hand, her hair that is both slightly too long and not long enough swaying in the Lominsan breeze. "Ye have never wanted to run yer parents' shop nor do any o' the shit they want ye to do. I think we both know where freedom lies in this city, hm?" She has K'hali's enraptured attention now, and this is where she sinks her fangs in. "Come on an' take some o' their fortune with ye and be my first mate. I promise ye will never have to look back."
K'hali doesn't hesitate in taking Wyra's hand.
"C'mon -- maybe if yer sweet to me tonight, I'll even let ye name the ship."
"We both know that's not happening. You already have something in mind, don't you?"
