And thus, off everyone went. Anyone walking found themselves lagging behind the people with motorcycles, though the boat was slow enough that everyone could walk within comfortable shouting distance of it.
It was two hours of travel later when the people walking normally first caught glimpse of the whitewashed walls of the bricklike fortress. Drawing closer, one could tease out details.
Behind the walls four times as tall as a man, one could see a greyish, bricklike building of some sort towering over everything. Men-as well as shorter, brightly colored animal people patrolled from behind the walls and on the ground, and one could notice a steely watchtower just behind the corner of the wall. Closer still, and you could see lumps and bumps all over the coverless ground- a minefield of some sort. There wasn't an obvious path though them, and the dark-grey-and-silver uniformed guards motioned for you all to wait, while one wolflike member carefully made his way toward you. "Who are you- never mind, let's get you all inside," he says. Follow my steps exactly- you don't want to step on a mine."

The people on the boat, on the other hand, would see that there weren't many defenses on the sea- there was a wall, but no real patrols, and a decently large gate that was open. As Kerry maneuvers the boat into it, you see a small dockyard containing a number of motorboats like the one Kerry has, and a few, somewhat bigger sloops. There weren't many people here- a bird person and a older man carrying a motor off inside the grey building, that on closer inspection was mounted on concrete stilts, and a pale woman waving at Kerry, before blinking at the sight of everyone else. "I see you found some wanderers, Kerry," she called out as the boat drew up to the dock.
