You know I am not one for drawn out conversations, however, I feel a correspondence is in order. I am in the position to become the owner of a rather... Amazing vessel, and while I do know your parents have given you a ship due to inheritance, it is, though well-crafted, but a merchant ship.
I do recall your whimsical desire of treasure hunting as you became an adult. I have a proposition for you. I will write you again when I have control of this ship, as well as when I obtain a crew. Perhaps you would like to join me on my adventures, and hire your own ship out to gain revenue.
I must warn you, I can be slightly unlawful. However, your sense of adventure tells me this is a worry you can easily overcome.
If you address your letters to me, at the Western Air Temple, they will be sure that they find me.

Quote: Dao Ruin-- Your proposition intrigues me. ....okay, really, I'm not much for heavy language and big words like that, so forgive me if my letter's not quite as formal as yours. I'm a little worried about leaving my ship in the hands of others-- particularly when I've only just acquired it...but perhaps it will work out. After all, treasure hunting and merchant desires are rather in opposite directions. Aw, hell, adventure here I come, sign me up! ~Ina

I've acquired the ship, and she is magnificent! Not the largest ship, but swifter than any I have ever seen. It has both offensive and defensive weaponry [which I doubt we shall have to use, do not worry yourself].
I was pleased to find your acceptance letter last month, and am now in the midst of finding our crew. I hope it to be mostly females, as I know several capable women that find it hard to find employment.
It will take but a few months to become prepared.
I trust you are learning what you can, being captain of your own vessel.

Quote: Dao Rui-- I have a friend I'd like to possibly bring along. I'll have to ask him about it, but he seems to really want to travel, and I think he'd be an asset to the crew-- he's a waterbender, and they -do- tend to make really good sailors. Other than that, I look forward to seeing the ship. I have acquired several maps that I think will help us-- mostly related to some of the bigger tales I've been collecting. There are some areas in the very south of the Southern Water Tribe territories that are rarely visited and I'd like to have a look at them to start with. ~Ina

As long as you find his loyalty and strength sufficient, I will have no issues with looking him over. I've learned to pick out potential when I see it.
I have most of the crew arranged now, and we are beginning to outfit the ship.
Your maps sound intriguing. However, there may not be much adventure in such a cold, relatively empty place. Though, I am not above looking.

Quote: Dao-- I think there may be more there than you think. There are a lot of stories in the Water Tribes and I think some of them have to have something to 'em. If the stories are right, there may be some ancient ruins there. But, I don't know for sure. And yeah, I think Anyu'd be a perfect addition. You'll like him. When you come to show me the boat I'll introduce the two of you. ~Ina

Quote: Ina-
I will be visiting my Aunt and cousin shortly after a large event I am told that is occuring in the Fire Nation. A masquerade of some sort. I will not be in port by the time the event kicks off, however, I will be there by the end of that day.
It seems like you to be heading there for the event, perhaps with your Anyu? If so, I will meet you there, and you can make your decision.
I have finished our crew and supplied our ship, and it awaits its first mate--that is, if you decide you would like the position.

Quote: Dao-- That sounds like a good idea. Though, I do want Anyu to be able to enjoy the event, so if I can't grab him to meet you, I'm sure you'll understand. I can introduce the two of you later on if nothing else. ~Ina

Just make sure he is at the docks before I decide to pull out of the harbor. If I do not make it in time to see the event, I trust you'll keep me informed of the events? Take part in the firewater sparingly, this time, my friend.

We will be there, don't worry. And don't worry about the firewater either-- I partake only in moderation. Well, insomuch as I get just drunk enough to have fun and not enough to get sick.
If you need anything else, let me know.
