At some point between their trip to Urithiru and departing on the journey to Aimia Nikli hired an assistant, [[Plamry]],{{book ref|sa3.5|10}} to help it perform its duties. Nikli and Plamry carried Rysn and her baggage aboard the ''[[Wandersail (1174 ship)|Wandersail]]'' and carried her around the ship as she required it. Sometime before they departed, Nikli poisoned [[Screech]], the Wandersail's [[skyeel]] mascot, in an attempt to frighten the crew so they would abort their mission.{{book ref|sa3.5|19}} After Nikli put Rysn in her new chair on the quarterdeck, it told her that it thought that the captain and the crew did not trust her. Nikli tried to suggest that they delay the trip so they could find a more suitable crew, but Rysn brushed its concerns aside, saying that they were good men chosen by [[Vstim]] and they had been training with the ship since it was built. When Rysn found out that Screech had died she told the crew that anyone who wanted could stay behind without penalty, placating the crew and foiling Nikli's plot. After Rysn found out why [[Drlwan]] resented her so much she had a philosophical discussion with Nikli about how sometimes you had to accept an imperfect solution for an imperfect world. [[Kstled]] returned to them and reported that although the ship's cook, [[Nlan]], was among the sailors who accepted her offer, [[Cord]] would be able to take her place.{{book ref|sa3.5|4}} This put another kink into Nikli's plans,{{book ref|sa3.5|19}} and they set sail.{{book ref|sa3.5|4}}
