THE CHAOS EFFECT
SEGMENT 013
"So, what do you know of the Golden Eagle and it's captain?," Kerrick asks the group, trying to pass the time with some small talk.
Spike replies to Kerrick's question: "Honestly, I don't really know a whole lot about Sharn and its inhabitants. It wasn't a strategically important city during the war and therefore I've had very little reason to study it. It's a very fascinating city, though."
Rashleigh (Know Hist 23) Captain Dreek was one of the first Air Ship Captains for Breland. He was involved in the Battle of Red Clouds between Breland, Cyre and Aundair. 25 ships went in and only 6 came out. Vander (Know: Nob 17 / Know Hist 21) adds to Rashleigh's comments. The Captain refused to give up his ship when the Treaty was signed. Instead, he bought it from Breland and was among the first to run a private airship between cities. Many of its weapons remain since he is among the few that will travel over mountains and possible hostile areas. He is not cheap and Jaskin is spending a lot of money on this.
anything more?

Settling back into the carriage with a loaded pack and saddle bags full of gear, Rashleigh looks nervously at his new horse and hopes Delay plans to take it a little easier considering the animals now riding as passengers. "Well then. By all means let us meet our illustrious new Captain. I'll assume I need not say it, but just for the sake of all involved- Ms. Delay please consider the nerves of our new equestrian passengers. It wouldn't do for anyone to be kicked in the head by a frightened mount before our journey even begins."
Once Delay is doing her thing, the priest continues in a lower voice intended only for his travelling companions, "Ascribe whatever motive you will, but to all indications Jaskin has plenty of money at his disposal for this little endeavor- contrary to his explanation for why we would be paid in information or whatever our individual cases may be. Curious indeed." He shrugs and looks out the window as the city passes by, dark eyebrows furrowed in thought.

The man with the probe
"Jaskin did say there would be gold and equipment on board the ship that was ours." Vander says "I belive the information he is offering is beyond any normal gold he might be offering. However, those willing to be bought by gold might be just as easily swayed by more to betray him. However, information is a rare comodity, and the though of it is much more likely to breed some loyalty than simple gold."
Vander scoffs thinking of himself as a simple mercenary, but the truth hits him as he speaks it. Jaskin holds almost all the cards in this arangement, and certaintly not only over him. While he knows and trust Tamin, he wonders what information the others might need that they feel it worth risking their lives for.

THE CHAOS EFFECT
SEGMENT 014
Delay looks bored and almost desperate after picking up the second horse. Her medium sized sky coach is crowded and poorly balanced. She can be reckless but is not stupid. She slows down considerable and even follows the rules of the airways. A faint smile and expression of releif grows on her face as the craft rises. It hovers to allow for everyone to get a sense of balance then slowly docks. Several guards glare at her and the horses.
"You can not bring these animals here. This is a restricted area." says the concerned guard. Before anyone can comment on the matter Delay shouts out with some mirth in her voice. "Tell that to Lord DeMell. His friends are expected." And with that the guard is quick to reel over the ramp and secure the lines of the hovering craft.
As you walk around the towers large open circular courtyard you can hear a soft roaring and crackling sound. As you go around the corner you see the Golden Eagle. The ship is massive. The deck is nearly 170 feet in length. It has a deep belly for storage. The fire elemental roars in circles. Many men in uniforms scurry around gathering tools, lines and supplies. There are a handful of possible passengers here also that appear to be waiting to board.

First Post
Spike walks past the ship a couple of times while inspecting it. He doesn't mind sailing but wants to make sure that there aren't any serious damages to the ship's hull. He may not be a sailor, but he knows a hole in the hull is a bad thing. After ending his inspection he gets in line with the rest of the passengers as that seems to be the only way to get onboard the ship.
