Erekose's Savage Tide - Act 1: There is No Honour

[SBLOCK=Alix]*Alix does his best to try to spot his pursuer surreptitiously before retreating into the relative safety of the villa. If he still hasn't, he points where he last saw it and quietly asks the guard with the best eyes in the place (probably around +5, +6 or more for a level 1 Expert with ~4 ranks and good Wisdom) to help him out. He definitely doesn't rendezvous until his shadow is spotted or at least gone.*[/SBLOCK]

Docks: [sblock] "Now that's interesting news. Sounds like they've found something good and but have to get it out of somelace deep and dark. Three weeks ago, you say. And have you seen them since? Sounds like they might have something worth trading if they've returned."[/sblock]
 

[SBLOCK=Inside the Shack]Jerrell stays silent and listen. Somehow, the attention of teh Sibbecai is still annoying him and for a moment, lose teh conversation flow but he focus again on it as he hears the dwarf have seen them 3 weeks ago.[/SBLOCK]
 

[sblock=Alix]Alix does manage to get a pretty good look at the guy as he crosses the bridge between sections of the city. The rogue is wearing a tan coloured cloak to easily hide amongst the adobe or wood buildings used through out the city. He has a rather angular nose and a prominent pointed chin. Beyond that though, Alix does not recognize him. As he passes the description on to the guard. The guard nods and continues to peer in the direction indicated. About an hour later one of the other guards reports to Alix that the rogue seems to have buggered off.[/sblock]

[sblock=Shack]"Nah thats the last I seem of em. If they've found somethin good, mind, I do be hoping they comes to see me. Might be able to interest you in some of the items perhaps? Not that they have come though, just a hope really."[/sblock]
 

[SBLOCK=Alix]Alrighty--once he's shaken his tail, he can go about his business. One important thing is to send word not to send the insurance letter about Rowyn. He also writes a new one about Vanthus just to be safe, in case the others found the scoundrel's whereabouts. He includes such gems as the claim that Vanthus murdered his parents by setting the boat to burn down and assures that if Vanthus is subjected to truth magic, the truth will prevail. Once he is finished, he goes to meet the others at the appointed time.[/SBLOCK]
 

Docks[sblock]"Yes. Definitely they might have something interesting. Thanks very much. We'll be keeping in touch. I'm sure we'll get some business going at some point. Good night."

Julian is ready to leave[/sblock]

With both conversations concluded at exactly the same time (:)) Alix, Jerrel, Julian, and Tereg head towards the docks in the Merchants quarter to find Nathan. Upon arriving there they see him pop out of hiding and come running over.

"Thank goodness you guys are here! A few of the deck hands on the Blue Nixie started moving about quite intently just 15 minutes ago." he says somewhat franticly. Looking out over the harbour, the group sees the sail on the main mast drop.

The ship is preparing to sail!

"I've secured us a dingy over here, quickly!" says Nathan pointing to a small floating boat just off the side of the dock.
 

"They're leaving harbor!" Julian gasps with dismay! "Did anyone hear of this? Will they return?"

Julian moves to the dingy. "Shall we pursue? I doubt we can catch them, but we can try. We can work up a plan as we row."
 

"If we pursuit, let's not waste time." replies Jerrell who jump into the rowboat and prepare to row.

[SBLOCK=Erekose13]Just a note to tell you that Verbtim is back online under a new alias: Ayden. I'm not sure if he still have time and interest for this game, but you could ask to see if he want to take back Natahn. Here his mail: crow112101(at)yahoo.com [/SBLOCK]
 

The 5 leap quickly into the row boat to give chase before the Blue Nixie is ready to launch. With extreme effort and Jerrel's sailing expertise the little boat manages to catch up before the last sail snaps into place. The crew appears to be too busy getting ready as no alarm has been sounded yet. As the boat closes you see the chain from the anchor begin rising, pulling the heavy piece of iron from the harbour floor.

ooc: Thanks Velmont, I'll give him a shout.
