Having made contact with the people of Kaihon, exchanging maps and learning a little about their cultural practices, Perrin pushed on towards Miskatonic.  |

The Dunwikki, good friends to the Sheenish, received Perrin and the Unicorn warmly, eyeing with obvious interest the baubles they had acquired on their voyage. Merchants in Dunwik traded as best they could for information and relics, giving over in exchange some new cameras, a reel of film containing a most likely illegal movie in some areas (A black tie based on the fictional outlaw Sammael Hyd). As a gift of goodwill, the harbormaster gave Perrin a parrot who was trained to speak Sheenish.
The parrot, while a wonderful and beautiful bird, was obviously trained by Dunwikki men who mostly learned Sheenish from sailors, and as a result she had a foul vocabulary, freely mixing Dunwikki and Sheenish swears in a thick Miskatonic accent. She could operate a lighter also would regularly demand tobacco, if she didn't steal it from the crew.

Having restocked in Dunwik, Commodore Perrin set sail for the last port of call, Sheen. SNS Unicorn erupted into cheers as the first Association territory was spotted on the Starboard side, the trading post of Glassensea, who sent a signal to the odd vessel; --WELCOME HOME SNS UNICORN-- Sailing onwards, they passed by the familiar shores of the Aylscor Ducal Confederacy, then by the old Port of Queenstons-upon-bumber, and finally reaching a sight that brought a tear to many a sailors eye, the Commodore included, as the Port of Sheen's centuries old lighthouse came into view:  As the Unicorn slowly entered Port, the Harbour walls were packed with people cheering them in, bands playing The Land, and the Flagship, SNS Yerkes, giving a 27 gun salute. Once the Unicorn was docked and her gangplank laid down, Commodore Perrin walked briskly down and found himself face to face with none other than Lord Mayor Garend Marston and First Councillor John Smith, though the Commodore was slightly confused at finding the NLSDAP leader in front of him, as when he had left port, Mr Yerkes was still First Councillor. Nonetheless, he was proud his arrival was considered such an event that the Lord Mayor had came to welcome him back. "Commodore Perrin I assume?" Marston asked. "Aye, Sir. A pleasure to meet you your Excellency." The Commodore responded. "Well, Mr Perrin, I would just like to congratulate you on a job well done, and welcome you and your crew back home, please, come celebrate your return today, the Navy has given you and your men leave till tomorrow."
