“I wanted to, but in the end I don’t know if I could” He responded in a low tone.
“There is nothing left for me here.” She said. “The money is gone, my name disgraced, and staying in England will slowly kill me. I need to leave, anywhere… see the world as long as it’s not here.”
The Captain, slightly lightheaded from inhaling some of the hydrogen from the air ship, stud stupidly for a second. “There is nothing left for me in the homeland any more; I have packed all that is of any value in to my ship, the rest that I am leaving behind means nothing to me anymore.” He said at last.
“Where will you go?” She asked.
“Away from here, anywhere. Maybe France or Germany.” He stopped for a moment. “ India, yes India. There is nowhere more freeing for oneself then India. That is where I am going.” He seem slightly happy with himself for being that decisive in such short notice.
“Then I am coming with you.” She stated as of this was the most natural thing in the world.
