Experience II

[Thanee]

Silvermoon

“No, a big ship. One to cross the ocean.”

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

"Large canoe, perhaps harder to portage, but what is this 'ocean' word?"

 

[Thanee]

Silvermoon

“Ocean. Sea. Water. Huuuge lake. Thousands of miles across.”

Silvermoon looks around for two landmarks, which are roughly a ships's length apart and tells the lizardman that the ship would have about the size of the distance between those two.

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

He laughs. "I will believe in such a lake, and such a canoe, when I see them."

 

[Thanee]

Silvermoon

With a smirk, the elf says: “You will, my friend, you will...”

“I will send note to the ship's crew and then lead you there.”

After she said this, Skreg flies off to tell someone (probably Rana or Teratius) telepathically, that Silvermoon has found a group of lizardmen who do not seem to be hostile and who would be able to lead us out of the marsh. And that she will lead them to the ship. Also, that it might very well be, that the ship cannot be brought out of here, as there seem to be no large bodies of water in the vincinity. Skreg asks that someone, to inform the captain, waits for a reply and then comes back.

In the meantime, Silvermoon tries to keep the attention of the lizardmen with some chatter.

“You look like you were hunting. What do you hunt?”

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

"<Untranslatable>. Very dangerous. You should be very careful."

 

[Thanee]

Silvermoon

“Thanks for the warning. What does it look like?”

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

"Twenty feet tall. The ground thunders as it walks, and its teeth can cut a man in half. Outlanders pay good money for the teeth."

 

[Thanee]

Silvermoon

“That should be hard to overlook,” Silvermoon says with a smirk.

“Outlanders? What kind of lands will we find beyond this marsh?”

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

"Dry ones. Hot, fertile, but dry."
