Luke is still accompanying Paul on the journey, as indicated by the use first person plural. Paul tells the captain of the guard that the voyage is headed toward disaster, but he pays him no mind. As they travel, the winds pick up and begin to make the seas unnavigable. Tossing out valuable cargo along the way and exhausting themselves with the work of staying afloat, Paul finally tells them that will survive, but the ship will not make the journey. They take his advice and everyone reaches the shore without loss of life.
