The simple trick by Alina is to burn existing maps so a position of  cartographer now becomes a need and then she is assigned to join the team too. 

The sail enters the dark and soon they are attacked by ferocious creatures known as the Volcra, many of whom are killed. When Alina is lifted up by a Volcra, she suddenly emitted a magical light that forces the monsters to fly away, thereby saving the few survivors.

Meanwhile, in the commercial hub city of Ketterdam, a Dregs gang including Kaz Brekker, Inej Ghafa and Jesper Fahey compete with Pekka Rollins to win a job with a huge bonus of 1 million kruge.

They bring a Heartrender to Dreesen - the potential employer, in the hope of getting a lucrative job. Dressen asks the Heartrender to cast spells on Alexei, a surviving sailor on the Abyss ship, to reveal that Alina is a Sun Summoner. Dreesen kills Alexei and orders Kaz Brekker's team to bring Alina to him in exchange for the job.
