Island Empire - A Warlock Alone Part2

The weather does indeed break and clear off. The winds are not as favorable as might be desired but after an uneventful day and night of sailing you are approaching the Crosscroft Isles. Just before high noon word comes that the Isles have been spotted. Over the next hour you start to see small hide and whalebone fishing boats manned by rugged looking Halfing fishermen. The smaller rocks give way to actual islands clearly visible from the quaterdeck.

Chandar calls the Marines to station and they put on an impressive display. Parchment is brought out for mapping and the ship makes its way toward the port of Adrilin. It takes the rest of the day to make your way to the heart of the Crosscroft islands and to the port at Adrilin. Stout buildings of stone adorned with a surprising amount of decorative wood line the docks. There are only a few ships here. One or two look like they might have just come down from Icewatch, though you suspect most of the ships have just come to trade with Crosscrofters. It is not a big port, but as the trading hub of this island chain it is busy. The majority of the folk here are halflings with a smattering of orcs and a Centaurs, which are rare in most of the Empire.

"Take us dockside if you please" Michael calls to the officer of the watch..."Prepare to recive a representative of the port authority" he adds..
Then turning to address those around him he says "So what may we expect to find here"

The general consensus is that this is a back water of the Empire with little of importance. The islands are famous for lobster, sheep, hats and Crofties, the little hard working dog breed of the islands. In more recent years the area has grown prosperous for providing banking and financial services. The local halflings are reputed to be quite good at such things.

Seeing the port authority man Michael says "Permission to dock for a few days to resupply and perhaps do some trading"

Used to such traffic the man efficiently takes down your information and soon has your paperwork processed. He makes one somewhat unusual request. It seems standard policy in the Crosscroft Islands is an inspection of the ship for evidence of vermin or disease before he will allow anyone or anything to come ashore in the island.
