After visiting the farm and speaking with Jeb and Abigail, Cail walked towards the new dry dock where the Corsairs' Airship was being repaired. Reaching the side of the ship itself, the wizard raised his voice loud enough so people on the top deck could hear him:
"Hey! Anyone up there? Ive come to see Murphy Belle or at least one of his crew. There are matters at hand that need to be discussed."
ross who was sleeping down on the lower deck of the ship over heard the yelling and sat up wondering why he cant remeber the last few months. but not really caring he got up and went to see what was going on and found sorin talking to a man he had never seen before thou not really careing how sorin had gotten back. thou the fact that this man wanted something with the captin was suspicous in and of its self
"I would follow you my good elf, but seeing as I have never met you in particular before, I shant. I mean not to be rude or out of tact, but one cannot be too careful these days with... strange goings on. Oh, by the way, My name is Cail," said the man as he pulled his hood backwards uncovering his white hair. "I come on behalf of the party set out to fight the dracolich Scorch. Your Captain, or perhaps you, have information that may serve to help us along our way."
The Empyrean Wizard waited for the Elf's reply as he saw another man approaching out of the corner of his eye.
Silver walked around the corner of the dry docks to the source of the yelling. "The Captain seems to have wandered off for a time Cail. Perhaps I can be of assistance, since we are on familiar terms, and Ross is not much for conversation." She walked closer and spared a warm smile. "Although I may not be parry to the specific information that you seek. I have been... away from the Corsairs for a time."
The young elf, simple tweaks his head like a confused puppie. Walkes out of sight to return to the edge of the ship with a rope ladder. While climbing down the ladder, the young elf says " i hope you don't mind but Ross and i are the leaders of the ship while cap., is gone you'll have to understand that you must listen to me for information."
Looking at the elf as he climbs down the ladder, Cail doesn't speak a word, but then turns his attention to his fellow Empyrean. "Ah, Silver," he said with mild enthusiasm, "it's good to see you after all this time. And, yes, you may be able to help in fact. Wyrenn of the Reinholdts has bid me speak to the Corsairs about some of the finer points of taking a long trip. He's wanting to know what you and your crew would suggest as precaution's for such, or rather, how would you suggest a safe trip over such a long distance?"
Silver spares a smile at the remarks of the little elf. She turned her attention to Cail. "The Corsairs are more than willing to take on passengers for a voyage. However, I'm sure that the Captain will not offer our assistance for free. He has spoken to me that when the ship is up for flight, he will announce a fee, and also perhaps be open to the idea of trade for passage." She took a moment to look over the outside of the ship. "There are still some things left to do with the repairs. Plenty of time for us to work out a deal with Master Wyrenn. I'm sure from the impression I got of him when I helped to stike the last deal the Corsairs made with him that he will appreciate the time to barter to get his full satisfaction from what ever deal may be made."
"I'm sorry. You have misunderstood me, but as far as I was aware, I didn't think Wyrenn wanted to use your ship to make our journey. I think he just wanted advice on what you, seeing as you have taken long trips before, think would be wise to prepare for on such excursions."
"However," said Cail thoughtfully, pausing only a moment before speaking again, "I wonder if Wyrenn would mind commandeering your ship for such a voyage. I'll have to check with him and see what he thinks. But in the mean time, would you have any tips that I could give to him?"
Silver smiled at the simple misunderstanding. "I thought many in Jastery were quite well travled. But it all depends on the way in which Master Wyrenn chooses to travel. If he is willing to travel with us, he would need sufficient clothing for the trip and anything he might wish to bring to make himself more comfortable, though perhaps I could negotiate for the cost of food and drink to be included in the cost for voyage. Other modes of travel, such as Thalenier's portals -when they work- would require considerably less packing, but less guarantee of sucess. Or means of return."
Silver eased into the conversation a little more, not trying to push Cail into a deal harshly. "Of course, there is always the option of traveling by horse. But that would require the purchase of animals, time put into care of said animals, and the purchase of enough food for them if he will be traveling through any sort of harsh environment that won't offer the proper grazing. He would need one for every person traveling, and perhaps one or two more for carrying anything to or from the destination."
She looked to cail and smiled politley. "Master Wyrenn would be well advised to travel with the Corsairs. We have a spacious hull for anything he... might need to move discreetley. And the crew is quite willing to be accomidating to the needs of a paying customer."
Silver was more than happy to accomadate the Master Wyrenn. "I would be delighted to join you in town Cail. I do believe that it would be best to see if a deal could be struck in person. No offense meant to your services of a courrier, but I'd hate for any key details for negotiation to be muddled." She smiled to take any sting that might be percieved by her remarks. "Granted, any deal will have to be ratified by the Captain, but perhaps I can help to work out the main body of a deal if Wryenn does decide to seek the assistance of the Corsairs for transportation."
Soran looks back to the ship and back to the wizard. "Captian would have my head if i left the ship unguarded" then gives quarky smile and climbs up the ladder and pulls the rope ladder up and yells to the wizard and silver "Don't die on your travels" Winks and slowly walks to were the edge of the ship covers his aperance and you begain to hear the clanks and turning of gears symbolising repair on the ship.
Cail watched silently as the Elf climbed the ladder once more, then disappearing out of sight, he looked to Silver and smiled slightly in return. "Well then I guess we best be off to look for the man. Perhaps he is still at the Tavern because it's not been long since I left. I think it is best to start there," he said smoothing out his sleeves.
Turning to face the direction of the Tavern itself, he looked over his shoulder and offered his arm to Silver so they may walk together and he said, "Shall we?"
Silver took her fellow Empyrean's arm with a slight quirk of her lips. "Why, thank you Cail. I do hope that we haven't missed Master Wyrenn." She kept her arm lightly linked with his as they began to walk towards town together. "Though I don't mind the excuse to go to the tavern." Silver looked up with a smile. "First round is on me, if you would care to join me for a drink my friend."
"That would be quite enjoyable," said Cail still looking down towards Silver as they walked along the path. "But I think i'll just have water. Ale, wine, and the like are just not my forte, but I will toast with you none the less."
"I'm fairly certain we'll find him there. He was knee deep in order shoveling when I left earlier. Perhaps the Urodeq in him still is as we speak, " he said as they walked on towards the Tavern and out of sight of the Airship.
"My dear Wizard, Captian seems to not be on board. I could lead you in the right direction, if you will follow this humble elf."
