"well" Brent said "not much I can complain about, I've had worse, of course I've had better too"

He continued eating his meal, noticing the sharp contrast between the wine and the gruel, he took another sip of his brandy, and contemplated, for the 100th time that day, what they were getting into.

Doing something.

Ensifer stirred his gruel. "Yeah... speaking of which. Makes me wonder why the king takes the first bunch of poeple that come in off the street and gives them crappy transportation. I mean, if this is so a serious issue we're dealing with."

He took a sip of his wine. "I'm a lesser noble and a trained fencer. You're right out of the smithy, and bunny is right out of the ranch. I'm wondering why neither of us got a second glance, or much of a first, at the job application."

Bren thinks about this for a moment, "yes, that is troubling me as well, he is probably desperate for help with this"

Ensifer ate while Ronin responded, then replied: "Desperate? He's the king. He could have the entire guard looking into the matter. I think he's hoping the issue will blow over as quietly as possible, with as little impact as possible. I'm also betting he's sending us to look proactive, and waste as few resources as possible in the process."

Ensifer looked at his gruel. "A bit thin. Not bad."

Bunny woke with a yawn and rubbed her eyes. She left her room.

"I wonder where Marisa is?" She said as she peeked into a room. Seeing no one there she walked towards the galley. She peeked inside.

"Oh hello." She said walking up to others.

Bunny sat down after geting herself a bowl. She stared at it and then sniffed it.

"Uh. . .I don't think I'm hungry." She said with a smile.

"So what were you two talking about?" She asked.

He sipped his simply *fabulous* wine continued eating.

Marissa eventually felt ill from looking at the water too long. She headded back to the gally to see if she could scrounge up some crakers and juice, that is, if it even existed on the ship. She spotted bunny and the others.

"Enjoying your meal?" She asked putting on a strained smile.


((OOC: in his last post he said this is a good time for our charaters to interact...other than that, no clue. Maybe he's busy...some people do have to do things IRL.))

Ensifer smiled politely back. "Depends on your tastes. I'm used to the occaional gormet cooking with frogs and snails and such, but Brent doesn't seem to like it much."

Bunny laughed and handed her bowl to Ensifer.

"Here you go." She said.

"Do you think that the frogs are still alive when they cook them?" Bunny said as she noticed a frog let sticking out of the bowl she had just handed to Ensifer.

Marissa made a face at the bowl.

"I guess it's a good thing that I'm not allergic to things like frogs and snail...but to eat things like that..." She shuddered at the thought. She considered herself lucky because she hadn't found anything in hers. Or maybe she was just so hungry she didn't notice.

I'm done for now.

Ensifer shook his head. "No... no snails. Not bitter enough. I've had fancier dishes with worse ingredients."

He finnished his bowl. "Still, it's getting on in the evening. I'll retire for now, and suppose I'll see you all next morning."

Ensifer made sure his dishes were cleaned up, and returned to his cabin. He fell asleep on his pallet with little fuss.

"I might as well get some sleep to, sleep well ladies"

With that Bren cleared his bowl(I hate homonyms, is that the proper form?) from the table and returned to his quarters.

[OOC: GOMENASI!! I've been working about 6 times as much as I usually do. I'm really sorry, rl smacked me about and beat me to a pulp.]

Time went on. Days, weeks, and as months aproached the team started to wonder if there was actually land. Everyone got a little restless. A boat wasn't much fun. You could only play cards, and talk so much.

After a couple of months they finaly saw land.

WE'RE BACK!!!

((OOC:Starts to nod off: Image

What? We're back? Yipee!)))

Ensifer lay down his cards he was holding, abandoned the pile of coingage he had laid down to bet, and dashed to see the land they had all been waiting for.

"What's up first? Hunting for meat or getting some fresh fruit?" He leaned on the rail, and squinted. "Too far off to swim from here... all the pity. I'll be watching it from the fo'cs'le."

He nodded to Brent, and left to watch from the head of the boat.

((Fo'cs'le…you wont find that word in any dictionary, I bet, but I've herd it used firsthand. It's slang for the forecastle: the front/upper deck of the boat.))

Marissa walked back up to the deck when she heard Bunny calling from the Crow's Nest. She set a bowl of rather clumpy gruel on a crate and walked over by the railing.

"'Bout damn time. I think I've actually grown fond of the nasty crap they call food on this ship."

Robert ran from the bowels of the ship where he had spent most of the trip up top.
<hr/>
As they watched they relized how fast they had been going. In a matter of minuets they had to drop the sails to slow down the boat. The anker was dropped about 300 feet away from the shore. The captain came out and was about to yell but then he spotted the whole team.

"Ohh well there ye are. We'll be usin' the little boats to get to de shore."

Bunny ran back to her room and quickly grabed her staff and bag.

"Finaly," she said jumping into one and smiling. "This boat was nice but I would rather walk on land that dosn't bob around so much."

Forgetting the bowl of gruel, she hurried back down to her room and grabbed the knapsack and rushed back to the little boats. Her face was flushed but cheerful.

"Who's up for a good meal once we find some real living animals and the like? I could use a big steaming bowl of beef stew...or at least something that tastes like beef...unlike that crap." She said gesturing towards the abandoned bowl.

(((OOC: A pinnace is any small craft kept on a larger ship. Lifeboats, the captains gig, fishing boats, and loading craft. Pardon my obscure vocabulary. As for the legnth of my posts, I'll make them as long as they need to be. No more, no less.

Next time your kept away from posting, Geocsuppi, please at least let us know. I think we'd all appreciate it.)))

Ensifer smiled broadly from his seat. "I'm hoping to spot some wild fowl, personaly. A nice roast bird would do me just fine."

"Still... I'm more concerned about the things out to eat us. Lord knows if they've got lions or tigers or bears on that island."

((longboat is kinda self explanatory..... its a long boat, not the size of a ship, used for boarding other ships and making landfall, and btw white, sometimes its best not to use words that you know will confuse people....))

Bunny frowed a bit at the mention of killing an animal, but remained silent. She understood that he was just hungry, and secretly hoped that there would be fruit or something else. She smiled as she leaned on the edge of the Long boat and stared at the island.

"Its prety isn't it?" She said and nearly fell of the water as the long boat rocked.

Marissa reached forward and grabbed the back of Bunny's shirt and pulled back on to her seat.

"I think it would be a good idea to say in the boat, hon. Who knows what's swimming in these waters."

She peered over the edge of the boat to see if she could identify any of the sea life.

I wouldn't use "pinnace" in normal conversation, but Ensifer would. I don't mean to be confusing, but its part of his charactor. How do you expect a guy with Manners: Noble to talk?

Sorry, Geocsuppi, for the long OOC.)))

Marissa smiled at her in a motherly way and nodded. She looked over towards the land that had eluded them for some time and wondered what thay would find there, would they find the savages that had murdered her father? Would they in turn be murdered? Or maybe amushed as soon as they landed the boat? Only fate would tell, and it didn't look like she was in a reveiling mood.
