[ Thassa - Approaching ]
-- Out in the waters of Thassa, approaching or leaving the Port.
This area is beyond the safety of the Port --
says to ALL: The port showed on the port bow as the Sea Kur made
headway across a rising sea, The sound of the waves drumming
against the light yet strong hull was rhythmic in its tempo and
as I watched the wind change so I called for the first mate
"come about and tack to starboard" I called to Sven who heaved
on the tiller swinging the bows making the vessel run with the
waves toward the Port entrance. The vessel surged now riding the
crest of the swells then down into the trough and up the other
side, the thrill of a running sea and the wind behind you back
and the sting of the salt spray while the wind cracked and
snapped in the sails above our heads exhilarated and thrilled me
making me realize how much I loved the Thassa and her tempest
moods.

[ Docks - Dock Area ]
-- Somewhere on the docks of the Port. You can be on a ship or
simply walking the docks. --
says to ALL: The Sea Kur running now with the momentum of the
wind as I had the sails dropped and as it surged in towards the
docks and my berthing the deck was alive with activity. Men
swarmed over the yardarm rolling the sails and making fast,
others were at the bow with oars so they could steady the ship
as it came into berth. Others opened coils of rope looping them
in their hands to cast to the dock hands so they could tie the
vessel fast. I stood there watching as they moved satisfied that
I could trust them to do things right. The passengers sat in the
stern under a canvass cover that protected them from the wind
and sea spray in the open sea they had all been at the fair and
had now returned to the Port to set about setting things up and
ensuring whatever was purchased and arranged was carried out or
implemented on time.

[ Docks - Dock Area ]
-- Somewhere on the docks of the Port. You can be on a ship or
simply walking the docks. --
says to ALL: With the Sea Kur tied fast we were home. The gang
plank was pushed out to the docks and the First girl and the
others began carrying boxes and packages ashore where the dock
hands had brought carts so that the goods could be carted away
to their respective destinations. I watched the Port girls
giggling and laughing as they carried the goods off the vessel.
I knew that the Lady Nyah would be there soon enough and there
would be goods to be offloaded there too....but that was for the
dock hands and Nyah's crew. Mine was done.
I looked across to the docks and saw that soraya had packed a
cart with boxes and parcels and was now waiting for instructions
from me. I called across from the deck of the vessel "don't wait
for me, go on ahead to the villa I have work to do, I will see
you later for dinner" with that I waved her off and turned to
the crew "maintain the standards me, maintenance and checks. I
would want want the Kur ready to sail by the morning" Bjorn
nodded "Yes Captain" and the men chorused his acknowledgement as
they set to work.
