Welcome to Gaia! ::

El Diablo Loco grabbed Veran and danced as he cheered "Whoooooooo!! We won!!" Diablo stomped on the floor and called to Jak, "We won!- Wanna make us some food?" he was only partly joking, though he really did want some food. The Apple he had eaten a while ago wasn't filling enough.

Imogen tossed over the half, Namid sandwich to Diablo. Her aim back to par it hit him in the chest. The lookout wouldn't say it but she was impressed by the simple meal.

"We might have one now."

About a day later, the orchid pulled into port at sailors island. "Alright, lets try this again, refuel the ship, re stock food and water, and... other drinks, then report back her in 3 hours or so" said scott to the crew.
He walked down the gangplank and into the town.

Jak bounced happily down the gangplank her empty gold purse tied to her belt. 'I'm going to get those belts dammit and I dare anybody to get in my way this time!,' thought Jak.

Scott strolled into the tavern and sat on a bar stool next to a man in a hood.
"Oi mate, I need some information" he said without looking away from the bar tender.
"you know the price" the cloaked man said as scott gave up 20 gold pieces.
"What does the good captain need to know?" he said, counting the pieces. Scott spoke "I have it from a very reliable source that you posses the knowledge of where I can find a certain stolen treasure" he said.
"So it's true, you are looking for it, the-" Scott interrupted the man "Shh shh shh mate, not so loud, most of the scum here still think it's a myth what only crazy old prospectors go after, they hear that I am going after it, I might have more competition than I bargained for, eh" said scott. "So do you know where I can find it or not?" asked scott. "You will need the map which is stored in the underground archives of the valuan grand palace." the man said in a low tone. "Hmmm that might pose a problem, the king is not too fond of me since he found diablo trying to, now how did diablo put it, 'Make sweet hot love' with the queen" said scott, imitating his crew member. Scott began to get up when the man stopped him "be weary, spyre, a wind most foul is blowing your way, don't let it rip your sails" he said as scott gave the man an odd look and walked away.

Scott spun around and looked at the boy "Oh yeah? well we did just lose a few raiders a few weeks ago, what are your names. hm? must have names right?" he asked.

Imogen though would have usually went with the captain had found herself lounging on the deck. She had no reason to leave the ship. After her little leave she was more comfortable on the ship at this point.

"Calm winds. How long though?"

Duo chuckled and nodded before starting out of the tavern knowing his twin would follow. "Will do captain." he says as he heads toward the harbor.

Duet started toward the door muttering to herself. "Big, magnificent, black thing? Ok i agree on the first two parts but last I checked a nice ship like the dark orchid what not a black thing...." she shakes her head as she follows her brother to the harbor slightly hoping that her new captain had not heard her mutterings. Her brother had always told her she talked to much after all.

Once duo reaches the harbor he looks up at the magnificent Dark Orchid. He knew his father would have been proud to have his son and daughter on such a ship as this. Getting up his courage he starts up the gangplank and looks for the captains wife. He had heard she was a great beauty but not one to be crossed, so no flirting with this one then. He just hoped he didn't get stuck swabbing the decks... but then again one had to start somewhere.

Duet chuckled as she knew what her brother must be thinking as they got on the Dark orchid. He was probably deciding not to flirt with the captains wife. Probably a good idea in her books as her brother always got himself and others into trouble with his flirting, AND his gambling. She sighed as she helped him look for the vise-captain and wife of their new captain. Her father and mother had told them this ship was a good place to start their lives on their own. although duet had to admit she was nervous. This was her first time on a ship other than her fathers and it felt a bit strange to her to be following someone other than her father. Ever since she was a child she had been on her fathers ship and now her and her twin were setting out on their own. On a new ship, with new crew-mates, and a new captain. She just hoped she didn't disappoint them or herself.
