Calliope returned to the Tidelander settlement and immediately began to violently interrupt an orgy. Lamar calmed her down and told her to wait for Adrielle to return from her excursion. Adrielle was investigating the piece that had been discovered and she managed to get it for free after she murdered the archaeologist who had found it. Calliope tracked down Dylan, but she was reprimanded for coming to the settlement. In response, Calliope sabotaged Dylan’s boat so that he couldn’t go sailing.

Violca, a Tidelander, and Colton, one of Augie’s men, discovered that she was pregnant. The pair decided that in order for them to safely raise their child, they needed to kill both Augie and Adrielle. Calliope told Dylan about Augie’s recent murderous actions and explained how she felt about learning that she was half-Tidelander. Dylan tried to comfort her with tales of how he thought Adrielle was manipulating the entire Tidelander society.
