Fatal encounter on the water.

               Chapter 3



               A little further down the coast on the way to the country's capital, Copenhagen, ligger der a
               smaller harbor and town called Vedbæk, as well as Vedbæk Harbour. It is a significantly
               smaller port than the Port of Rungsted, but just as exclusive. Those who have their boats
               lying there are often very wealthy and discreet people. "The Port of Vedbæk is, unlike the
               Port of Rungsted, a simpler port without restaurants or shops. In addition to the boats,
               there are only a few large areas used for winter storage. The port office is the only facility

               beyond this, but it offers both showers, toilets and a gas station where sailors can refuel.
               Although the harbor is smaller than the neighboring town's Rungsted Harbour, it still
               radiates a distinct air of exclusivity. The meticulously designed buildings, crafted from
               elegant black wood, harmonize perfectly with the natural surroundings. Every facility is
               maintained to the highest standards, ensuring a sense of luxury for visitors.

               Among the standout features are pristine bathing and toilet facilities, a cozy sauna, and a
               specially fenced swimming area for winter bathers. Additionally, the active winter
               swimming club has its own dedicated section, complete with a sauna and an exclusive

               dressing room, offering privacy and comfort after their invigorating swims.



               Victoria, like Edward, comes from an extremely wealthy family. She is created by nature as
               a beauty, which as most people would consider to be a rarity, because she is at the same
               time kind and warm, an extremely well-trained woman with sharp eyes, a perfect mouth
               and high cheekbones. Her gestures are relaxed, and her language still has a form of slang,
               and the latest swear words and similar quick remarks of the time can be expected to

               introduce friends and family at any time. that occasionally pops up. Her body is slim and
               extremely fit. People say of her that despite her extremely prosperous position, she is one
               of the most unscrupulous and unimpressed people imaginable. "

               Her grandfather was a Danish engineer, inventor and adventurer named Karl Smed,
               originally trained as a blacksmith and worked in a large blacksmith workshop in central
               Copenhagen during his first years as an apprentice. Later, he established his own small
               blacksmith workshop in the then tough working-class neighborhood called Nord west in

               the northern part of Copenhagen.

               But the young blacksmith and very skilled and tenacious Copenhagener called the fairy
