"Okay, I'm going to start over from the top. Because explaining like this is clearly not working for either of us. The first thing you need to understand is this ship is not in your world, or anyone's world. Everyone here comes from a variety of times and universes and the Serena Eterna exists in its own vault dimension. If that sounds nuts it's because it absolutely is, but it's also true. I've been here eight months. The boat does not physically dock anywhere. The weather does not change, it's always summer. And the boat is always in pristine condition, there's always food and water and power. That much has been true almost the entire time I've been here."
