Floki steps up, "My name is Floki. I am a member of Vhons crew. It was like no storm I have ever seen!" He finishes confirming the captains accounts of the story.
Once he has finished, he willl turn to Vhon, "Cap'n after you are finished, come find me. I will be paying my respects to my other captain."
Vhon thanks the priest then prays for a while as the priest speaks to Floki, as they finish he stands and walks to the alter, silently leaving the piece of obsidian as an offering.
"I'll be outside, waiting, but take your time." he says to the northman.
"About time captain, if felt like you were in there for days!" The tabaxi would say as he quickly let to his feet from the ground. "Where too now" He would say as he rolled up his bail of silk and out it on his shoulders.
"Yes, I'm sorry, what can I say I'm not one to shirk my religious habits but we've found out where we are, Llandrain, in the north of Snowdown, whalers and suchlike for the most part. I say we get into town, find a place to spend the night and have a drink while we work out what we'll be doing here." Vhon looks towards the town, looking for signs of a tavern, and then heading to it.

"Sounds good captain" The tabaxi would say with a nod. "I guess it is a good idea to thank someone for us surviving that storm!" He would say with a small. Zephyr would then shift the bail of silk around on his shoulder and follow the captain into town.
(OOC: Feel free to advise if the party stops at any of the buildings described before reaching ‘The Snapping Line')
Just after leaving - like literally next door - the Temple, the party passes a large wooden building. Mounted above its entrance is a sign simply saying ‘Winston’s’. The verandah is stacked with all sorts of goods and tools as well as sacks of flour, beans, rice, etc.
The party follows the road further into town and after about a further 500 feet the street doglegs to the right (East) and continues down the hill into what appears to be the town proper. As the street straightens up at the base of the hill, on the corner is a large two story stone building. Carved into the stone lintel above the double wooden doors are a range of nautical scenes, whaling ships, ships unloading cargo, ships battling sea monsters, etc. Hanging above the door is a sign which has a stylized ship encircled by the words ‘those that travel upon the sea’ and underneath it the words ‘Guildhall’.
As you continue down the road on your left you see a large stone mansion which is an eclectic collection of architectural styles. At the far end of the building is a large amount of scaffolding as if another wing is under construction. On the roof you can see two men busy laying slate.
Continuing to the follow the street to the south, down a lane to your east on the edge of the ocean you can see another large stone building. Stacked out the front are lobster pots and nets hang from various poles whist barrels are stacked haphazardly all over the place. The smell of drying fish pervades the entire area.
On the corner of the street as it now doglegs to the west but also continues to the south is a blacksmith shop with several forges and a several smiths at work hammering away on various pieces of ironwork.
You continue down the street to the west as this is where Wellgar had told you, you would find ‘The Snapping Line' a popular inn and tavern.
On the southern side of the street, you see an imposing brick building. In the courtyard in front of the building is a set of gallows and hanging above the building’s double doors is a sign emblazoned with a a net full of fish.
Next door to the brick building is a wooden building which appears to have been constructed from various parts of ships. Hanging over the doorway from what is obviously a broken bowsprit is a sign depicting a fish on a hook and line leading from its mouth that is broken before continuing into the words ‘The Snapping Line’. Like the rest of the town this building also oozes the odour of fish!

As they approach the tavern, Floki turns to the rest of the crew. "Can't say I will ever apologise for paying my respects to the captain of the waves but let me get the first round since you guys were very patient."
As Floki heads inside, he will go to the barkeep to get the first round of ale.
As they pass 'Winston's' Zin pauses. "I would like to resupply. I like to keep several days of food stowed in my satchel, but I have lost it all in the storm or fed us with it and I am now out. Go on ahead to the tavern if you wish, I will catch up"
"I'll go in with ye," Gilly says to Zin. The blue-skinned firbolg enters Winston's and casually peruses the shelves as he makes his way toward any kind of visible purveyor to inquire about where they might sell their bails of silk.
Zephyr would shift the silk on his shoulder as the weight begins to get to him. "Sounds good captain... This... Silk is getting to be a bit of a burden" The tabaxi would say with a strained hiss as he makes his way into the shop behind the others. Walking into the shop, Zeph would look around wildly at all the goods, taking a moment to find his gem stone in his pocket in case he is tempted to exchange it for goods.
As Zin, closely followed by Gilly, pushes open the door, you both hear a bell ring. Soon thereafter a voice cries out “be with you shortly.”You both look around the store and see all sorts of provisions stacked against the walls, overflowing from barrels, etc. As you’re looking around a beaded curtain at the back moves and a Halfling steps through “Winston Fleetfoot at your service, how may I serve you gentlemen?

"I'd also like to get a few rations," Gilly says. "And a flask of oil for my lantern." He pulls the piece of obsidian out of a pocket. "Do you happen to know where I might could sell this?"
Eventually, he asks, "We were actually shipwrecked during the storm and were only able to salvage a portion of our cargo," he says, indicating the silk he is carrying. "If we were looking for a way to offload said cargo at a fair price, would you have any suggestions of a buyer?"
Zin smiles at the shopkeeper. "Good day to you. I am need of some daily ration provisions. 10 days worth ought to be enough for now." He looks around the store a bit and then comments "Quite the storm a couple days back. Ever seen anything like that before?"
Winston gets out 10 bags and wanders around to several barrels, at the first barrel he puts a scoop of dried fish in each bag "best dried fish in all of the Moonshaes here!" Moving onto the second barrel he puts a scoop of dried vegetables into each bag and at the third, fourth and fifth barrels he puts a scoop of lentils, rice and beans in each bag "boil it all up add some salt and pepper and you'll have a fish stew to die for" he says. He then moves off to another barrel gets a larger bag and puts 10 scoops of what appears to be dried fruit and nuts into the bag. As he is doing all of this he comments "yeah it was a big storm but they come and go regularly at this time of year."He then puts the bags on counter and says "that'll be fifty taran. (SP)"
"I'd also like to get a few rations,"Gilly says. "And a flask of oil for my lantern."He pulls the piece of obsidian out of a pocket. "Do you happen to know where I might could sell this?"Eventually, he also asks, "We were actually shipwrecked during the storm and were only able to salvage a portion of our cargo," he says, indicating the silk he is carrying."If we were looking for a way to offload said cargo at a fair price, would you have any suggestions of a buyer?"
Winston follows a similar process to get a ten-days of rations for Gilly. At the end of it he pulls down a flask of oil saying "best whale oil in the Trackless Sea, bit more pricey but worth every bit of it!"Gilly has heard of this whale oil and knows that Winston is right it gives an extra 10 foot of light when burned in a lantern."That'll be 52 taran all up." He then looks at Gilly and says"offloading wrecked cargo, yeah I might know a few people who could take it off your hands, I could even do it meself if the price is right!"
Zin passes the man 5 danter (gp). "How are things in town? I visited here once but that was many, many years ago. Seems to have grown since I was last here." Zin asks the man casually, a friendly smile on his face. "And thank you for these." he adds as he places the rations in his satchel.
Placing his bail of silk on the ground, the tabaxi would make his way through the shop, picking up a few items that caught his eye. Zephyr would move quickly as he kept through the shop, pulling from shelves and holding them in his slender black-haired arms. Once he had picked up the items he would carefully place the items on the counter. "Ya got quite a few treasures here friend... hoping we can make a deal" Zeph would say with a Grin. "I have coin sure... but I even be willing to part with this beauty as well... " zephyr would say as he pulls out his tigers eye and holds it in the palm of his hand. "This baby was party of a harpies treasure hoard... looted it myself after we killed the savage" He would say with a grin.
***items placed on counter wanting to buy, I have 3 days rations already correct? I am hoping to haggle a bit if possible :D Yay Tabaxi :D***
"How much would you offer per bail?" Gilly asks, giving the man six danter and receiving eight taran in change. "I'd like to report back to my captain and let him decide if it's a good price."
Floki steps up, "My name is Floki. I am a member of Vhons crew. It was like no storm I have ever seen!" He finishes confirming the captains accounts of the story.
