He then manipulates something behind the desk and goes to the door saying, "A moment if you please." The door opens from within and he steps though. After a wait of only about a minute, Trilby returns. "Right this way Captain." He opens the door more widely and motions you in. Another similarly attired guard awaits beyond the door and there is a grate in the ceiling just before the door. Gustav accompanies you while Trilby closes the door to return to his desk. This room proves to be larger and equally well lit as well as nuatical in style. The the left sits a dwarf dressed as a clerk behind a desk and before a wall of oak file cabinets possessed of stout looking locks. In the center is a teller's cage with only one window. To the right are three doors. Before one of them stands an female halfling secretary. She holds the center door open. "Right this way gentlemen." Beyond her is a well appointed office. Three comfortable looking chairs face a desk of dark wood beside which stands a halfling of late middle age in well tailored clothes. His trousers are Purple with a cream stripe--Imperial colors while at his left breast there is a gold Imperial seal stamped into the fabric. He comes from the desk and shakes Gustav's hand. Gustav exchanges a few pleasantries asking after family and mutual aquaintences as is the custom with halflings before getting down to business. Gustav answers questions about his own family and friends and then he says, "Mr. Nicklebee may I present Captain Michael Stormwarden of the Retribution. Soon to be fleet Captain I might add." The halfling extends a surprisingly firm handshake. "Very good to meet you Captain. Can I have my secretary bring you anything? Coffee, Tea perhaps?" He motions you to a chair and takes his place behind the desk. You note that while comfortable the chair is rather low and the desk and chair behind it designed to put you at eye level with your diminutive host. Gustav says, "I really must get back to the Port. I'll leave you two gentlemen to business. Captain, shall I have my friend in Real Estate call upon you this afternoon or perhaps tomorrow?" </blockquote>
