[QUOTE="Khenemetsobek, post: 885109, member: 11754"] Khen doesnt flinch at the conversation and stays at the back of the group not saying a word. [I]Burne and Rufas? Brioc's words will come back to haunt us. Plus they expect me to row?[/I] The next morning before setting off while final preperations are underway Khen will approach the Captain when he appears to have a moment of relative calm. He is dressed in a long white Pharonic robe more suitable for the open ocean. "Captain Tolstoy, Well met I am Khenemetsobek, from the land of Upper Egypt and companion of Brioc Ap Llwyd on the trip to Sevastopol," Khen says in a fluent but heavily accented Greek. "As a holy man and an honest person I felt it was best to inform you of my... situation. My God, the great Sobek, the Crocodile King, has great influence in these waters as in all the waters of the world that are fed by the Nile. Upon waking this morning I sat in prayer to him for his blessing on our voyage.... However this ship is not among those dedicated to the Scaled Lord and it is custom, nay his divine law that any vessel that his priests sail must be soley dedicated to him. Thus in order to keep his blessing and prevent the ship from being endangered I may not help the ship or crew sail, row, or in any way help operate her. Doing so risks the wrath of my lord, and if there is one diety that a captain wants to have on his side it is he, the Scaled Sailor." He says quickly and in a single breath, attempting to finish before the captain speaks. "It is a mighty blessing on the ship for a Priest of the Waters to travel upon her and I insure you that through me the Scaled Lord will ensure a successful voyage and that through me his power will be wielded violently against any pirate vessal that attempts to halt our voyage." Khen smiles cocks his head and awaits the captains response. [I]Mighty Sobek never have I so much enjoyed the customs of your priesthood as I do today. Several days spent behind an oar would not be plesant.[/I] [/QUOTE]
