Ep. 172 - Ch. 16 Part 1 Mad Ship - Taking Charge

We delve into Althea's reaction to Brashen and his news about Vivacia. She misses him but is still convincing herself she doesn't have feelings for him. Malta is also reacting to the news of her father, Kyle, being taken captive and enacting a plan. She meets with Cerwin Trell to garner his family's aid. We're reading Mad Ship by Robin Hobb, book 2 of the Liveship Traders in The Realm of the Elderlings.
