Mini Action 6: Anachronism and Sailing

    • Everything was prepared, your dispatches sent, and you were setting sail. On one vessel, a detachment of handgunners were desperately clinging to the center of the ship whilst making their way belowdecks, much to the amusement of the sailors. You and the Greatswords would follow suit shortly, but you had to have a touch of fanfare with your departure. Thus, you stood on the aftcastle, waving towards the vaguely colorful mass on the docks, and were glad that none of them could hear essentially everyone near you swear as they maneuvered around you and the Greatswords.

    Eventually, the docklands had mostly left sight and your three vessels began to turn to follow the coast, avoiding the deeper, more perilous waters further to sea. You imagined the voyage would take almost two months time. Hopefully, Taalia would not burn anything down in the mean time. Still, you were fairly confident that-

    Wait, three ships?

    Glancing around you, carefully counting, you realized that, yes, there were three ships in your little battlegroup. That wasn't right. What do you do?

    [ ] Scan the ship carefully, attempting in so doing to figure out why it is following you.
    [ ] Board the vessel, find out personally what's going on.
    [ ] Keep sailing, it likely has it's reasons for following you.

    Well, not enough people wanting to attack their own ship, I see.

    Vote's closed. I'm pretty sure scan won, but can we get a tally anyway?

    It did not take you long to discover why the third vessel was accompanying you. Indeed, you noticed it almost immediately. Namely, because she started waving at you from the forecastle of the wargalley, but such is beside the point.

    Apparently, your newest Knight-Captain of the Templars of Sigmar had felt the need to accompany you on your journey up the coast. The gesture was appreciated, but you hoped she would understand your motivations when it came to wedding the Arabyan. Still, at least the issue would be forced in the Emira's lands and not yours. Any collateral damage would be there, and not in Sudenberg.

    Rather resignedly, you make your decision.

    [ ] Board the Wargalley, talk to the Knight-Captain.
    [ ] Let her continue to follow you and just ignore her presence.

    Better to fill her in now and let her cool off before we arrive.

    Just pretend the problem doesn't exist, and it'll go away. Worked on my wife, ahahahahah.

    I agree. Better to get this over with, and then give tempers a chance to cool down.

    @Claytonimor; I notice you're always including the previous post, or at least the latter pats of it, in your updates. Any particular reason for that?
