Morning was barely breaking over the city, as a well armed vessel was secured to a dock. It had been over a decade since Captain Blood had been in port here. Had been home. Many no doubt thought him long dead. Lost at sea from a dangerous storm or that of an enemies cannons.
Many of the crew had changed over the years, but one thing remained the same. The Bloody Howl was the Captain's ship and any onboard that thought to change that were swiftly dealt with. Once more in the good graces of his Father, Captain Blood had secured work for his vessel and crew with The Lysandros Syndicate.
Older, wiser and if possible, deadlier.
A hand rested to the handle of the modified flintlock pistol. Across his belt to the other side laid the triple barreled flintlock pistol with ivory handle. His unique sword laid to his right side. A fingertip in tap against the railing as he peered at the shores of the city so close at hand. How much had changed" He certainly had. Rhydin's seas had a way of doing that to a man. As did its bounty of species and races one could run into over the passage of many years.
Captain Blood gave a look over at the tall form of Red Nose Brenton. Acquiring his nickname through holding that big red nose of his. "Mr. Brenton, leave...be granted. Let's not burn down any Inn's or Taverns in this Port shall we" Have Mr. Adams set the watch onboard with shifts. Business comes to us soon. Prepare to receive the cargo this afternoon and ensure it's locked in the hold properly. You may take coin out of the chest for Kallista, Rebecca and Gilinda to purchase them more perfume and silk. Our Moral Girls need to keep their splendor. Please try not to find yourself emptying a barrel all by yourself for a day or so either."
Captain Blood turned his gaze back over the port. A slow smile perking his lips. "Yo ho me hearties, yo ho."
