It was a cold and clear night. The black sky was painted with stars, it was not full moon but still the silver giant looked very beautiful as it was reflected in the sea water. There was a gentle wind which made the weather be perfect to sail in the night.

But the atmosphere at the "Nomad" was not as calm and clear as the weather around. Everyone had a strange feeling after the last events. Bryn, Firouz and Rongar were down in the galley. They were trying to divert their thoughts and pass the time by playing a card game. Dermott also was below deck. No one said a word about what had happened recently. Sinbad was sitting near the bow, watching the sky and thinking. He hadn't been talking with anyone for many hours. Doubar was at the tiller and observed his little brother for the whole time. The first mate knew what the young captain was thinking about and it worried him deeply but he had decided to leave Sinbad alone, give him the time.

The blue eyed sailor still had the same pictures in mind: That horrible night, the storm which had taken his love away from him and the scenes from the last day. Maeve screaming for help and him not being able to help her again. Sinbad couldn't stand that anymore. He had to talk, talk with his brother. He turned around and went to the tiller.

"Finally!" said Doubar when he saw who decided to make a move.

"Little brother, I was…" the big man started the but the captain did not let him finish

"I know, Doubar, I know but I needed the time" Sinbad tried to excuse himself.

"You were thinking about Maeve, weren't you" The younger one nodded at the question.

"Today, on this damned island, I thought it was her and I wished it was her…but it wasn't…" he stopped for a while and then continued " I think about her every day. Doubar, I still love her so much. I have to find her, I have to…"

"And I'm sure you will, Little brother but without some sleep you won't be a very good seeker" With saying that, the big brother brought back a smile on Sinbad's face.

"She has his smile, don't you think?", the beautiful sorceress said to her master while she was looking in the magical mirror and watching her handsome love who was so far away. She loved him so much and now she knew that he felt the same.

"If he only knew…" Maeve said to herself and looked at Master Dim-Dim who was preparing the room for some magic rite and asked him "Are you sure it is a good moment?" The young apprentice trusted her teacher but she still had many doubts.

" I told you My Child, it is the best time ever" the old man answered and smiled at the redheaded woman "The dark side lost its vigilance today" he added, lighting some candles. Maeve nodded in response.
Dim-Dim finished the preparation „Are you ready?" He asked his follower. The sorceress looked into his eyes, she had been waiting so long for this moment but now that it came she was not so confident anymore. She took a deep breath and pronounced „Yes, I am" Then she sat down inside of circle which her master had drawn on the floor.

"Good. Just remember: when I make the connection, you will have only a few minutes. You have to say all what I told you to say" the old wizard reminded her. Maeve nodded her head again. Dim-Dim sat next to her but outside of the circle and started to whisper the spells in some old language…

Sinbad and Doubar were still talking at the tiller when the rest of the crew could see that something wrong started to go on with Bryn. She seemed to be in a world of her own just like she would be in a trance. Rongar waved a hand in front of her face, but she did not stir and suddenly the brunette lost her consciousness. Luckily Firouz was close enough to catch her limb body in time.

"Rongar, go get Sinbad!" He yelled to his friend who immediately went to find his captain.
The scientist made some space at the table and gently laid his friend on it. Sinbad came to the galley as soon as he could. He had just closed the door when something strange happened. All lights in the room died. Bryn's face was beaming and she slowly opened her eyes. Everyone turned to her

"What the…" The Nomad's captain murmured but he grew silent when the girl started to talk with Maeve's voice…

"Don't worry about Bryn, she is fine" Sinbad and the rest could not believe it. He knew that voice, he loved it and in the same time he was afraid it could be another trap. His doubts vanished in the moment when Dermott recognized his sister.

"Maeve, is that really you?" The blue-eyed man finally asked.

"Yes, It's really me. Please, listen to me because I don't have much time" the sorceress started

"Master Dim-Dim found out how you can save us! He found out where we exactly are!" Sinbad's heart was pounding faster and faster but he did let Maeve continue without saying anything.

"We are on the island called Alkida! It's forgotten a place, impossible to find for these who don't know about it! In Dim-Dim's book there is a detailed description of this island, there are tips which will help you to find us!" the voice was becoming less and less loud.
Firouz just opened his mouth to say something but he did not do it. For once he didn't know what to say. Just like Sinbad. But the young captain although he had a big mess in his mind right then, was conscious enough to answer.

"Alkida, I will remember. Maeve…" here his redheaded sorceress cut in

"Sinbad! There is one more thing I need to tell you!" her voice was almost inaudible "You have…." Maeve wasn't able to say anything more. Bryn's body collapsed again.

"I have what?!" Sinbad yelled with hope "Maeve come back! Please, come back!

But all the lights in the room backed already and Bryn slowly recovered.

"What was that?" she asked her captain but he didn't say anything, just went to Maeve's old cabin to find Dim-Dim's book. He still couldn't believe what just had happened, he had to find out if this island really existed.

'Alkida, Alkida, Alkida…' he was repeating in mind to not forget the name.

"What did happen here" the brunette repeated her question when Doubar went in, turned to Firouz and said

"Very good question!"
The scientist was still in a big shock but finally he answered

"It was Maeve…she used Bryn as a medium to give us a message…" Bryn and Doubar looked at each other with reflection on their face then back at Firouz.

"What did she say and where is Sinbad?" the big man asked impatiently.

"She was talking about some island where she and Dim-dim are. Now Sinbad is looking for some information in the books, I guess." Firouz explained when his captain walked in with a book in his hand.

"Look I found it! Here we go" he started to read "Alkida – forgotten Island, impossible to find for these who don't know and don't believe in it. The moon would lead these who believe…" he stopped. Everyone looked at him.

"Turn the course and follow the moon!" The captain commanded. „I will find that island!"
