       dagger [Nyah’s]
       House of Coultrain
       HULNETH
       [At the docks]
       ..A single wooden dock on the bank of a river where serpent
       ships may dock to load and unload small amounts of cargo or
       passengers..
       says to ALL: There was much that needed to be done for re-supply
       of the ships. I was well aware of my Mistresses’ instructions on
       what needed to be done, but before I tackled that I wanted to
       get the contents of the Defiance in order for her.
       The Defiance, still anchored in port, I went to visit with the
       Captain, Kaspar of Kar. He and I had a long relationship, that
       was uncommon among Goreans, even those of our depraved city. He
       was loyal to me, and of a few I considered friend. He had always
       treated me with care and as near to equal as he could, while I
       was free.
       As I approached the ship, few of Kaspar’s men were there as most
       were imbibing the sweet, honey-mead in the longhouse as well as
       the sweetness the bonds had to offer. I could see Gitch at the
       prow and gave a wave. He waved back and whistled to the two
       young sailors to allow me aboard. I knew the Captain would be
       taking his evening meal in his quarters. Before reaching the
       door, Gitch stopped me and grinned.
       “Have you driven the men mad here, yet, dagger” he was grinning.
       I’d known Gitch since I’d left Sulport. He was very young then,
       now he was Captain Kaspar’s Second. I chuckled softly and shook
       my head.
       “I’m afraid I’ve lost a bit of my charm, Master. Please forgive
       me. Is Captain Kaspar in?” I knew he was, of course. But it was
       the respectful thing to do, asking.
       Gitch replied, “Even if he weren’t, he’d be here for you,
       dagger. Come. I take you to him.” I smiled, trying not to feel
       uncomfortable. Gitch and Kaspar were the closest thing to family
       that a slave could have. Or what I imagined family must be like.
       But I did not allow myself to think like that often, because I
       was a slave and slaves did not have family.

       dagger [Nyah’s]
       House of Coultrain
       HULNETH
       [At the docks]
       ..A single wooden dock on the bank of a river where serpent
       ships may dock to load and unload small amounts of cargo or
       passengers..
       says to ALL: [The Defiance] We reached the Captain’s quarter’s
       and Gitch knocked on the door. From inside I could hear the
       Captain. “It’s about time you found that bottle of Karian wine,
       Dimo! I’ve been waiting for almost”- The door swung inward and
       the Captain look surprise to see Gitch there, his brows drawing
       inward and then looked down, at me. “Dagger. I’ve been waiting
       for you, please come in.” He waved me through and I knelt down
       on some cushions beside the table. “Thank you, Gitch. Have Dimo
       get me that wine and bring another plate.”
       “Of course, Capt’n.” Captain Kaspar closed the door and turned
       back toward the table, sitting down.
       “You look hale, dagger. Hulneth is treating you well? I know the
       boys like it here.” he chuckled and I had no doubt the boys were
       enjoying themselves.
       “I’m well, Captain. Thank you.” he looked at me down the bridge
       of his nose so that glacier blues caught me by surprise. Despite
       the grey in his hair, he looked youthful, and not the age I knew
       him to be. I also knew that he did not believe me.
       “I am as well as I can be, Captain.” my shoulders slumped with a
       breath I let out and I shrugged those same shoulders. “I did not
       want to abandon the Jarl, Captain. But my heart and soul are
       fractured.” I looked up at him and smiled weakly. “I will bear
       my feelings here, Captain, deep in the snow. Perhaps, if I am
       lucky, I will come out whole on the other-side.” There wasn’t
       aught else he could say about that. Solemnly, he nodded and
       cleared his throat.
       “Good then. You are here, I suspect then, about the manifest and
       contents of the ship?” I nodded and he stood up, straightening
       his short, wool, cloak and walked over to a lock-box, pulling
       out a key and turning it. From within, he retrieved the rence
       and handed it to me. I looked it over, line by line, pausing
       here and there and looked up at him.
       “Very good, Captain. Thank you. I believe my Mistress would like
       to keep you and your men in her employ. She is a Merchant.” I
       offered this as though he didn’t already know and felt a little
       foolish. The Captain, however, took it in stride and mussed my
       dark tresses before sitting down again.
       “You already know the answer to that, dagger.” He chuckled. “Of
       course we’ll stay. Happy change of scenery.” There was a knock
       on the door then, and Dimo came in with a plate of food and
       bottle of wine.
