-- Is at the docks where ships are unloaded of goods for the
Market --
says to ALL: A Merchant ship....anyone else would call it a
common cargo vessle....But This was my pride.... I had Waited in
the docks for months for the ship to Be finished off... it had
Taken so long...But in the end I had Exactly what I wanted....A
round ship of medium class....The Holds were deep to transport
my merchandise...it was good to carry about 7500 gorean
weight..... I looked up and smiled as I watched my crew work
hard to sort the stock...and maintain the vessle.... She had
permanent rigging and Two Huge masts....although I did Love when
she was under full sail.....it was rare for the ship was Mostly
under oars.....I was Lucky enough to have good men on My
crew....100 slaves the rest FM I found this a better Idea....Ol
Josh sorted The Sailors and men....and the Captain answered to
Josh......never an issue so far.....
The Cargo had been loaded and was now Just up to me to decide
when We should sail.....I opened up my ledger and Just quickly
Looked over the stock inventory ...as I rested back against the
stone Wall....

jewels;
rugs;
tapestries;

says to ALL: I closed The ledger ... I would not need to Bring
This ship here Now untill winter had passed...."good" I
muttered.....I pulled the ledger to My chest as if hugging it
and just watched the work happening round the docks ...I had
spent the last Three days here......Waiting.....I questioned
Myself every night when I lay awake unable to sleep wondering if
This was all lies.....and I was just a fool...."maybe" I spoke
softly......But i didnt make preparations to leave just
yet....."One More day " I again whispered..... I smelt the
Air.... that sea salt smell was Great....

says to ALL: I sit down at one of the tables and start eating my
simple dinner relaxing while trying to decide which of the
cities that was recommended for me to go to. None are really
close and I try to decide whether to try to join a caravan going
to Turia or a ship to Schendi, scratching my chin with a
fingertip not knowing exactly where Fort Haskins is other than
near the area where the Red Tribes are.

says to ALL: I could see things happening on and around many Of
the ships.... I lent Back.... from a distance I would probably
not even be noticed for I now had my hood on my cloak pulled up
to cover and keep me warm ...the breeze had blown up some where
I sat..behind me was a Post and i used that to lean against...
stopping Me from falling Back Off the wall....I tugged the cloak
so it covered my legs.... and Just Remained still and silent
taking in what was happening around me... Was then I saw Three
men.... Move slowly along the docks....they Mingled and spoke to
some of the others who were sorting Goods and doing chores.....
making them selves look Like they belonged....maybe they
did......

says to ALL: I looked Over to My ship... and back to the
Men..... they were still talking .... one seemed drunk and was
talking Much Louder then The others ... I was far enough away
That I could not hear what they said...but I could hear the
sound of the drunken mans voice.....His black sleen coat
billowed behind him moving slightly with The wind off the
Sea....In a few hours the inns along the docks would close and
empty there drunken patrons.... many I guess would stumble
home...and arrive safely....while Others would hang about and
want to continue the excitement....joining others and There
friends ...loitering till after midnight...finding card games
and making coin off in the darkened corners of here The
docks.....

says to ALL: As I proceed down a dock, the bracelets on my
wrists jingle softly as I read the names on the ships, not
really knowing a lot about ships but I can recognize some of the
flags of the larger cities, having visited most of the larger
ones with Ports with my parents when they went travelling.

says to ALL: I hear the Men arguing on the docks and glance in
their direction wondering what they are arguing about then I
pause and glance up at the flag on the ship, not recognizing the
Flag of the ship then debate whether or not this is a good place
to turn around and go back in the direction of the Market.

says to ALL: I see the name of the ship and smile as it is named
after a Woman but then when I hear the word "Thief" I jump and
turn and run back down the docks, not knowing who stole anything
and not wishing to be accused of being the thief.
