Re: The Game: Chapter 07
In reply to Maeve Hassan (msg # 970):
The cook heads below the deck, and soon a number of barrels are brought to the deck.
"Meat," he says. "Mind you, parting even with just this much will make our meals all the less satisfying."
He does not look pleased, and neither does A'tril, though perhaps for different reasons.
"No need to be flippant, Falseblood," the dark elf glowers. "Lest you forget, it IS my decision to make. This may be Garfunkel's mission, but Darris sent me to supervise. And that means overruling stupid decisions when and if they are made."
He turns to Maeve and nods.
"That much, at least, makes sense. If we were to kill it, we'd need to do it quickly. A full salvo from the ship, followed by 60 arrows and a dash of magic."
The dark elf looks hungrily at the dragon turtle.
"There are so many uses for dragon parts, I'm not certain Darris would mind trading our cargo for a whole hide. Still, we're on a timetable..."
He falls silent, pondering the variables involved.
"We have no rudder," Captain Pri'chard chimes in. "I would just as soon not lose any other pieces of this vessel. If we were to lose, for example, a mast or the sails, we would be well and truly stranded."
