[QUOTE="biorph, post: 1552246, member: 10426"] [b]What Part of the Pig are These From?[/b] The day of departure had finally arrived. Kem didn't know about the others but it was his first time out of Kalimsport let alone Kalimsham. The captain, Lady Sahn herself, greeted them as they went aboard, though, Omar looked at her strangely. Kem noticed in the bright sunlight that she had ears that were...different. They were longer than an elf's ears and strangely shaped. As they were shown to their rooms they were in for a rather big surprise. Someone had taken all the beds out of their cabins, there were just a bunch of fishing nets in the rooms. Solafien became indignant. "Where are the beds? Is this some kind of joke? This is how she treats US?" "Hold Solafien" said Omar "I've heard of these. Feather beds don't travel well on ships, so most people use these net things. I think they're called Ham-Hocks." Omar demonstrated by attempting to get in one. He almost fell out a couple of time but managed to maintain his balance in the net-swing thing. Omar was right, it took some of them a few tries but they all managed to be secure in the 'beds' in their rooms. Sargazzo seemed a bit worried that his might break when he got in it, but sure enough the ropes held. The rest of the voyage was fairly uneventful, though sea sickness struck everyone but Kem. All that time on swaying wires was proving useful in more ways than one. Their first stop was city west of Kalimsport for refueling and preparation for the voyage. Omar said something about magical importance and mages, but it was of little interest to Kem. They were only staying for a day or two, so Kem didn't bother filling his mind with useless facts about someplace he'd never return to. As they landed Kem heard a knock on his room. In a flash the door was open and a very surprised looking Solafien was staring down the business end of Kem's quarterstaff. "Sorry about that" Kem apologized, "I'm still nervous being in a new city. What can I do you for" asked Kem lowering his staff "Several hundred gold" replied the assassin "I want you to help me sneak in to a house in the city, I've got a...target. He's an ex gold taker who's been selling secrets, and I've been asked to silence him...permanently.
