Mormegil was in the process of business when the other person, sounding elfish, walked up and asked the captain for voyage as well. In fact, the elf struck another bargain that was even better than his, and the captain had bailed out, leaving him to just pay! Smiling at the newcomer that had helped save him some coin...Mormegil paid the 75% of his origional offer, then watched as his elven friend paid for the two of them. His bodyguard was tense with worry and agitated at the suspense.

They walked out of the tavern, toward the docks to get a look at this ship. Suddenly, three robbers approached them and demanded to be given money. THis was not the first time that Mormegil had to fend off attackers, as rich people usually tend to draw interest from the ruffians of the town...but this time, he had a "bodyguard" with him.

To Karthias, he said, "These people are not with the captain, my good Karthias...they want to rob me of my riches and put your second half of the employment payment at risk. I suggest you prove to me at this time that I have purchased the arm of a capable bodyguard."

Mormgegil stands still and crosses his arms, hoping that he did indeed have an able-bodied hired hand.

After the money transaction was over, the male elf strolled over to Skye with a satisfied smile on his face. She gently placed her harp down, and waited for her companion to speak.

"Well, that went well. Not only do we have passage on a ship..." he paused for her to insert exclamations of joy, "...the other passenger should be somewhat friendly towards us, since I helped him save coin. The captain I'm not so sure of, but I trust you will be able to make him see us in a kinder light," he added dryly, and Skye pouted slightly.

"Hey, I can't help it if people get along with me well. Why don't we follow the other passenger? We weren't informed where the boat is, or when it's leaving, and we don't want to get cheated out of my hard-earned coin just because we didn't know what the boat looked like."

Nodding in assent, the male elf followed the cheerful half-elf out of the tavern and after the rich man and bodyguard.

Corinthian

Heading home from the little beach he had to cut through some parts of town, he didnt care to much for some of the town's folk and was just thinking how happy he would be to get out to sea and not have to come back for a while when he heard" Troubel? Id like to say u are the one in troubel.
he laughs and looks at his friends a says: look he doesnt look like hes even going to fight. *they all start to laugh* "is the litle rich boy to scared?"
Guys just get rid of the anoying one and ill take care of the "prince" here." looking at the odd's here he thought at first to just go around, but then he had a change of heart, he had seen these ruffian's before and had little to no love for them. summoning forth his magic he began a simple spell of webbing and before anyone could even hear his chanting the spell was cast and a sinuous and sticky web the size of a giant net spewed forth from his finger's covering the thieve's."That should hold them, my apologies for interfering but I have seen this scum before, to lazy to do honest work they are."

OOC>>>I am waiting to give my companion a chance to post and do his thing, if that is ok with the DM.

[RoSs_bg2_rox]

ooc>> sorry different time zones, just got home, I tried to get on earlier but the server was down.

Karthias was about to give the loud mouth a good smack when suddenly someone, which he later found out to be Corinthian came up and gave everyone something to laugh at! Karthias proceeded to say to the robbers "You want a go then do you!? Well here you go" and at this point he gave the smart mouth with the shortsword a good hit with the flat of his blade in the stomach which caused the man great pain. "Now you wana continue this or are you gona leave us alone to get on with our business?"

" NO please! just get on your way please!

Karthias casually walked past the 3 robbers, giving each one a good thump in the face with his big fist and then the pair [Mormegil and Karthias] proceeded on their way to find the ship, closely followed by Corinthian and the elf and co.

[Calsiumus]

Coruno steps out of an dark alley right next to where the fight was. Ahh I se you arent as useless as I first tought of you. *he walks over to the men and drops a bag on them* the clining sound gives away what it is in it.
But as you already know ruffians ar nothing comperd to dragons and other creaturse you might meet out there on the ocean. While the most of the dry land has been seen and built upon there is still lots of water and island whit have never been seen by man, so I give you "the esmerald" he points up to a big ship made in whit wood whit red sails and in the front a huges painted dragon head.
Made by the Mortaniuns, they where the best boat builder this world has ever seen. *he starts to walk aginst the ship when he is about twenty meters from the boat he falls down on one knee and rubbs his eyes like they where in great pain it only holds on for a few seconds and for any one who was paying attecion they wuold have seen that his eyes blinkt green.
"sorrry about that´I triped, shall we board?"

[Skydracgrrl]

Skye's elven companion coughed a little when Coruno mentioned dragons, but didn't say anything.

After looking at the ship with wonder, Skye turned back towards the captain just in time to see his eyes glint with a green shade. She raised an eyebrow slightly but didn't comment. He's not the only one who's not mentioning something... she thought to herself with a small grin, thinking of her companion.

"I may not have much experience in this field, but I know enough to know a good ship when I see one," the male elf said. "Ah, but before we board, let us introduce ourselves. Unfortunately, my companion and I missed the introductions."

Skye continued for him. "My name is Skye, bladebard at your service. And my friend is called Lyulfe." he inclined his head slightly in assent. "If you ever need help around the ship, or a song, or just someone to talk to, just ask," she finished with a smile.

Mormegil


After his guard had taught a lesson to the 3 fools that tried to assault them, Mormegil and Karthias were asked to begin to board the ship. Mormegil was talking to his guard when the captain had a trip...and so missed seeing anything unusual. He was, however apporached by the elves and introduced...and they wanted to get to know who is was as well. He politely obliged.

"My name is Mormegil Dragonslayer. My grandfather was famous for his adventures...which earned him the name, and the fortune that I now enjoy. This is my guard, Karthias, who I have hired to see me kept safe along this adventure into the sea. Please...if I may be of any service to you folk, you shall call upon me, for I shall certainly call upon your bardic talent this evening at dinner aboard the vessel, and beyond. I will pay well if you keep my friend here and me entertained while we travel. Is this a fair arrangement?"
