What you find there will depend on some of the groups actions. We may have to delay things here a little and I may have to advance some time there. Michael can't be sure, but it seemed like Fa'Duatha just appeared in the hallway as he opened the door, perhaps it was merely a trick of the light. Nac'Losin nods at Michael's suggestions. "We'll need to stop in a major port to get the sort of things you are discussing. The barrels are fairly common and should not be a problem. You should note that our people, both Lizard and Toad need to soak fairly regularly in fresh water. Salt water will do for a time, but it dries one out dangerously. Once we get to the north it will be even harder. We may need to build some way to heat water. It could be challenging. This boat was sung at its construction and the traditional wards are sound. It should be easy to add something to that. I suggest we hire a singer for the crew. Most of my people don't know the deep water songs that protect a boat and crew. They are more familar with fishing songs and such. The weather around Tregere is predictable, so there is no need for weather songs that see a ship through storm and wave. We should consider this carefully in getting ready to make the long voyage to icewatch in such a small ship."</blockquote>
