-In a World of Predators, the Larl never fears the Hurt-
is on the Thassa
says to ALL: -The ship was a powerful ship, built especially for
the open thassa rather than calmer rivers. It held a battalion
of one hundred Sulportian Men. Fifty of them were Red Cloaks.
Warriors of Central Gor and fierce, proud Men. The other fifty
were Blue Cloaks. Mercenaries and a somewhat more -sinister-
Force. I stood at the front of the ship. Up on the high deck as
I watched the dockland draw in closer on the horizon. It had
been quite the trek to get here, navigating icebergs and
avoiding Raiders. I peered back over my shoulder and saw the
crew working to prepare for hitting land. Sails were being
adjusted, crates shifted, Oars replaced the sails and allowed
for a more accurate steering through the rocky waters. I did not
command them, I left that to the ship's captain who stood on the
far side. He was experienced in the matter and did not required
aid.-
-I stood 7ft tall and weighed 330lbs. I wore black boots, black
leathers, and a black larl pelt that was strapped about my burly
frame with buckles and strips of strong leather. A 36inch
doubled edged spatha hung from my right hip and a 3ft long
bearded axe hung loosely at my side, gripped by the fingers of
my left hand. I wore no helm and those Nordic tattoos glistened
across my rugged features as my gaze set forward to purpose...-

-In a World of Predators, the Larl never fears the Hurt-
is on the Thassa
says to ALL: -I finally moved away from the front of the ship
for a bit. I knew we would not long be on the waters, no more
than an hour or so, depending on how swiftly the men navigated
along the water.... Whilst I had the time, I moved towards one
of the crates. It was loaded with spears. I picked one out and
checked the edge. Making sure it was sharpened, oiled, and
without any nick or flaw. When I was satisfied, I put it back
into the crate and picked out another. Each one was identical.
7Ft long with an 18inch leafed spear head of steel. They were
the deadly signature weapon of the Red Cloaks.-
-I moved on eventually, to another stack of crates. They were
odd shaped boxes and not very big. I used the 11inch cutting
edge of that axe to jam into the crease and pry open the lip.
When I peered inside, I smirked devilishly and thought ahead to
the sheer amount to lives I sought to take. With these
possessions, they would not stand a chance against us. But
first... we had to get there...-
-I replaced the lid, hammering the nails back in place using the
back of my axe head. I made my way slowly back towards the front
of the ship and peered towards the dock.... Not long now, until
we touch down and could be gone from this ship.-

on one of the main pathways meandering thru the Outpost
says to ALL: The Horns Blew Loud a Ship could be seen on the
horizon and was Moving towards the home .. We knew that it was
possible that we were next to be raided... all men were on
alert...The Horns continued to sound warning of ships
approaching towards the docks,, The guards moved into Formation
to secure the docks...
Hearing The horns i moved from my Dwelling Tugging at my Bow and
quiver as I moved through My door... She stood 5ft 7 in height,
Her build was muscular and she wore a tunic and brown Leathers
leather belt with keys That Hung to her right Hip on a chain,
Her hair pulled back and pinned with the dreaded pins....she
wore a sheathed blade strapped to her thigh... and carried her
New bow and quiver that held 15 of her arrows and 10 of Sulports
from the raid earlier...

-In a World of Predators, the Larl never fears the Hurt-
is on the docks or ship tied to the docks
says to ALL: -Eventually the ship would reach the docks,
manoeuvring up alongside an opening in the extending dockwalk.
Men jumped ashore to bind up the ropes and moor the ship in
place. I turned to face the Men and saw that they had all risen
to their feet, looking to Me for direction. A lot of them knew,
that they would not be coming back from this venture... I rose
that axe and tapped its head against the front of my right
shoulder. They knew its meaning and immediately set to task-
-Half of the Men fifty of them moved towards a certain
crate. Each of them wore sandals and a loin cloth of bosk hide.
Their bodies were etched and shaped for warfare. One by one,
they pulled a scarlet cloak from the crate and fastened it from
their shoulders. After that, they took a 26inch gladius to the
right hip, a spear to the right hand, and a domed, argive
gripped shield to their left forearms. All of them wore common Y
Helms and they looked like a force to be reckoned with.-
-The other fifty Men grabbed cloaks of regal blue and strapped
them in place to hang from their leather clad shoulders. They
were not quite as orderly looking as the Red Cloaks... some of
them wore leathers, others wore animal hides... Some wore helms,
and some did not
They also did not have a specific weapon set
like the red cloaks. They just carried whatever weapons they had
managed to loot from previous battlefields. Sellswords may not
have as much order as Scarlets. But they fought with a ferocity
and eagerness that only coin could entice.... -

says to ALL: ~She glanced up as she heard the horns being
sounded. She hoped this was just another drill, but she still
pushed to her feet and grabbed the walking stick she had just
placed near her seat. She shifted her belt on her hips and moved
the scabbard with the dagger closer to where she could reach it.
The scissors hanging from the belt were near the front of the
belt as well. She wasn't exactly sure what she should do and
looked to the guards at the door for a sign. ~

-In a World of Predators, the Larl never fears the Hurt-
Is far out in the wilderness and traveling
says to ALL: -When the men were all ready. They disembarked the
ship and made their way onto dry land. I stayed behind to speak
quietly with the ships captain. I handed over a pouch of coin
and he wished us well with a shake of his head. I knew he
believed it to be a suicide mission. as he put it. But I had
worked too hard to turn back now and it would be a do or die
moment, one I will face with a smile on my face. I cleared off
the ship finally and heard a ruckus going on, horns bleeping and
tarns squawking. But I paid it no mind, if any of it bothered Me
or my men, they would kill it.-
-I paused a moment on the dock to pull a large sheet of folded
rence out from within my tunic. I unravelled it with a flick of
my wrist and peered at the drawing. The map was not very
detailed but it covered the basics and with it we would not
get lost. But first... the crates from the ship... and for that,
I would need to find something else... I tucked the map away and
headed along the outside of the Outpost walls. My clutch of 100
men following behind me in a military rank.-

-In a World of Predators, the Larl never fears the Hurt-
Is far out in the wilderness and traveling
says to ALL: -We did not bother to enter the actual outpost.
Instead I marched the men around its perimeter for a while and
away to the East. Just long enough for us to find an unclaimed
open area. From the vantage point, I could see the mountains far
off to the south east and the Outpost now to our West. I raised
the axe above my head and the large force of Men drew to a halt.
One blue cloak, and one red cloak came forward. I spoke quietly
with them, indicating for them to set up camp in this location.
I arranged for the rest of the crates to be picked up from the
ship and I sent a handful off into the forest to hunt game for
the fires which some of the mercs were already setting up.-
-I stood on the hump of a wild grassy hill, over watching the
set up and preparation. I was in no immediate rush. Every step
forward was still one step closer and there was no need to ruin
it with haste.

until they both stepped out the door. She wasn't sure what that
meant, but she could still hear their voices outside and so she
decided to stay put~
