Aboard the Cinnamon Wind, Sam and Gilly mourn the loss of Maester Aemon. The old man succumbed as the ship neared Dorne. Their tears bring them into each other’s arms and Sam’s vows are history. Simon and Mackelly sprinkle rose petals in the bathtub and try to light a scented candle.

Chapter Review:
Samwell Tarly eulogizes Maester Aemon to the crew of the Cinnamon Wind. The Summer Islanders honor their elderly and their funeral rites involve drinking and love-making. The news of the dragons that Xhondo provided put a spring in Aemon’s step, but it couldn’t last and as the ship made its way around Dorne, he succumbed after a period of sporadically lucid dream and prophecy. Part of which was a realization that the Prince Who Was Promised is in fact Daenerys.

Drunk on rum, Sam and Gilly make love in the women’s section of the boat. Sam has fleeting regrets about his vows, but they’re swept away by his feelings for Gilly. The next day the regrets are in ascendancy, and he avoids Gilly all day.

Sam has paid for passage with the books intended for the Citadel, and with his labor. But the captain assures him that the Citadel shan’t miss out - he’ll sell them the books and make a healthy profit from them. He uses the excuse of work to avoid Gilly but eventually he’s taken aside by the captain’s daughter Kojja who tells him to go to Gilly or swim.
