"Ha! You are such a kidder Zirial. I was talking to the tall lady and the dwarves. So, we go get the documents and beat up anyone who brought down the ship. The King's Forest is right outside of town, but it's really really big. How are we going to find an airship in it? We'd need our own airship. Hey Zirial. Are you buying us an airship? Wow. That would be neat. You know, airships have elementals trapped in them. I've always wanted to see an elemental up close. Usually, you see them way up in the sky, but the airship always blocks your view. I wonder what you feed an elemental to get an airship to go. I bet they eat little elementals. Zilspar is really far away, isn't it? Like days and days and days away. We'd definitely need an airship to get there quick." Tryn says with a conspiratorial wink.

Braddock starts to talk several times, but keeps getting interrupted by Tryn.

When there is finally a breath in the halfling's deluge of talking, Braddock spits out, "Aye, I'll help protect your goods, Zirial. But what we really need to know is what is in the sensitive material? Who would want to take it from you enough to down your airship?"

He jabs a thumb at Tryn, "And the warrior is right, do you have a means of faster transport for us? Walking won't be fast enough, me thinks."

Mythra stands silently, pondering if he would lose the job if he commanded the owlbear to dispose of the halfling, or at least remove his vocal cords.

Ghourra nods.

"Uh, huh. OK. This I do. Go there. Watch ship. Make sure doc... docu... papers still there."

"Uhhhh... Where papers kept?"

"It is kept in the captain's quarters, under lock and key, although if someone was able to take down the airship, I supposed a simple lock won't be a problem" Zirial replies

"Yes, you have the right of it, simply walking would take too long, unfortunately, we also don't have any air assets located close enough, so you'll need to travel by ship, or via one of House Vadalis' mounts, I'll leave the choice up to you. There are risks with either method." she replies

"Also, do we get to read the documents, what happens if we do anyway and what's in it for us?"

"Those documents are property of our House, and as such they are not for you to read. If you do anyway, we shall see that the seal is disturbed and, well, I don't wish to discuss unpleasantries ." she replies, letting the last bit hang in the air.

"As I stated earlier, one of our magewrights will commission you an item to be decided upon" she adds

Braddock looks over the size of the goliath, "You best be pointing us in the direction of a friendly air ship, Zirial. I'm not sure there is a beast alive that can hold up Orsik."

He picks up his craghammer, "The sooner the better. Do ye have a map so we can find the wreckage easier?"

"I can run the best horse you have aground. This little body has surprising endurance for one it's size.

Still, I would prefer the ship."

"Ship or horses. Ship or horses. That's hard. I mean, if we get horses, then it's a lot more effort on our part. Riding a horse for long periods of time gets painful after a while. And if you get lost, then you're in trouble. And there are monsters that like to eat horses. Plus, ships can sail through the night whereas horses get tired and you have to camp. Going by ship has problems too. You're right out in the open where everyone can see you. You can get attacked by sea monsters or pirates, even air pirates. And then there's sea sickness. A lot of people who rarely travel by ship get sea sick. And it's not fun to fight air pirates when you are sea sick. Too bad Zirial isn't buying us an airship. You can fly over most monsters with an airship.

"Ah, instead of a horse, I would suggest if you go that route to consider a pegasus, or perhaps an Alicorn, it would be much faster than a traditional horse, even a magebred one." she pipes in.
