MOK #2
After Tense Moments Stardancer id brought on Deck.
BronzeFist Nods at His Crew,Well then.. that worked Out Right... Now , when we get ta where ya wanna go, well Juts Have her Go down the Gang way , we use for loadin' Barrels and such..
Kree leaned on the railings after climbing up,..why was not, that used now?
well? Laddie? we dunna have a place to put the other end of the Plank , now do we? he stood there with his fist on his hips , smiling.
..Kree pointed to the starboard side of the ship where the 'gates' were for the gangway ,could not, have we, rowed around the ship and you would have had to Lift her some 10 feet less in the air?
The smiled Dropped and the Dwarf looked at the Gates, Then Back as he rubbed his thick braided beard,..Aye.. that we could have... Have Ta remember that next time..ahh, well.. all is good she is On board.. tie fer us to clear the Deck for a Party
The ship was moving well upstream towards the Black Timber ..On the wind, there was the smell of Burning Horse flesh and Cattle, as the fires reached the stables if the Merchant Quarter...screams, though faint,, could be heard from those who had been surprised , to trapped by the flames..
the growing light to the Northeast, did little to hide the Bright lights of the western part of the City,, and light up the cleft between the hills where the River Demon once rested.
Kree stood at the stern railing and watched.. Ivy came up and grinned as he rested a foot on the railing and used it to support his elbow, that supported the hand...that supported his chin.
The Dwarven Captain came up to them,,,that's a Mighty big fire...The rest of the city..iffin they'er smart will mark sure to watch for sparks and such.. but those Big walls the Merchant Lord had to separate the poor folk..might have done them in..
Kree Nodded with a half smile, If that fire HAppened at the Palace in Ironmound.. every citizen would be runnign to put it out... there may be soe grumbling about Emperor Lod? But he makes sure his ...'normal folks' are taken care of...If that fire happened in Razorhawk Village,,, there would even be sone animals that tried to help... because they know what we stand for...There.. Teh Merchant Lords treated the poor and working folks like slaves, while they dinned on the finest.. I don't think there will be many folks from the rest of teh town, in a hurry to put out the flames.
