Cigars at Sunset

The cigar is preserved just right and lights only with a good puff. It proves to be milder and smoother though not necessarily better than the supremes.

OOC: Twiddlying thumbs until the battle ends next door. You're already about 13 hours ahead...

 

[J. Alexander]

OCC: Guess I should check back next week sometime then

OOC: Next week? I think you'll be lucky to get things going again as a Christmas Present.

A thought

HMMMMM

I think MIchale should just sail off and leave them to work things out and continure on his merry way....that way be christmas he will be at least two years ahead of them...and not have to worry about it

Actually, i do hope they get more involved, I love the interaction in the other game....makes a dm's job a lot easier you know to have players who actually plot etc....but lord the posting lol dont these guys ever sleep.

Vitorrio

The older man puffs contentedly. "Tomorrow we will be sailing for Waveborne Hold (the southern capital). What's next for you Captain?"

Afternoon Cigars

"That is a good question, I leave this afternoon in an attempt to take a pirated ship, i have a somewhat reputable map as to where the "Crystal Princes" was scuttled and then I was very lucky this afternoon and was able to dispose of my cargo of tobacco in a combination swap of goods and coins, so I must go back an replensih before i set sail and trade my way to the northern capital then on to icewatch to settle with these northerns. From what interaction i have had with Captain Marin he deserves the utmost effort i can give him in helping find his son or at the very lest causing those who have wished him ill the same grief they have inflected." Pausing and taking a puff Michael continues "All that is tenative as this is Mermaids Rest and who knows what may happen next"

Vitorrio

"You've been rather busy. All that and you managed to rescue many a good man and bring down the conspiricy last night. Had I not witnessed some of this myself I might take you for a braggard." He takes a puff and adds, "The Crystal Princess. That was quite a story. Not many a Captain would choose to sink such a valuable ship. Had he survived I don't think he would have gotten a warm reception from its owners. Do you really think you can find and raise her?"

Smiling Michael comments, "I have found sometimes the truth is a little hard to belive also". Continuing he says, I do belive i have an idea as to how she may be raised, and i have a few tricks that may well turn the tide and allow her to be raised quickly, I am thinking it may well be worth anytime involved and the map was not to expensive." Then as an afterthought he says "I had not head anytying other than her crew scuttled her in order to prevent her falling prey to pirates"

Virtorrio

"Yes that is the story. They only had a skeleton crew aboard just out for a quick work up run after an extensive refit, when the pirates fell on them. The Captain and crew knew they could neither win nor outrun the pirates with so little manpower. They choose to scuttle her and take to boats. They ran in four boats in opposite directions. The angry pirates were furious and tried to catch and kill all the crew most grusomely, but one boat of three got away to tell the tale. A sordid business at best." He shudders, "She was a very valuable ship." Raising his glass he adds, "I wish you fair winds and smooth seas Captain. Manage to find and float her and you'll be the talk of the inner sea, as well as a very wealthy man. I sailed aboard her once years ago. She was a fabulous liner then. It is said the refit had outfitter her spendedly to be one of the most luxurious ships afloat."
