Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Double post..))

"Hmm...So what be your name?"

"Killick Ontario." He said, introducing himself.

Killick knew she could tell he had lied. He had drawn one of his pistols, yet kept it hidden inside his jacket and easily accessible as he gazed upon the moonlit sea.

*Looking out of his cabin window on the starboard-side*

"Permission to come aboard granted to ye', now get aboard ye' filthy bilge rats. It's amazing that your on shore so damn long, but never find the means to find a bathhouse. I'll lower away a bloody stretch of canvas for you to swim and bathe in once we get out around the Cape. Now, stow away!"

*Retreats into his quarters and goes to his desk. Taking a seat and lighting a candle, he takes out a quill and ink. As he reaches for a clean scrap of parchment, he finds an envelope addressed to himself in a familiar hand.*

"Dear Grandfather,
I wish to speak to you over this Killick fellow. I do not know what your judgment tells you, but I do know what mine tells me.
You're loving Granddaughter,
Nyssa"

*Closing the note, he places in carefully on the desk, obviously contemplating his decision to let this Killick aboard. His happening upon our exact position & by jolly boat none the less, had been a bit suspicious.*

"I'll set things right my dear... I promise."

((Killick ~ You must earn that name. It'll take awhile. I promise. But if you pull the same shite that I expect you to pull. I'll slice your throat, boy'o. If you know that character well enough, you know what I'm talking about.))

*appears beside her and looks down at the water*
"Hey how's it goin. You know I don't think we've talked once since we met each other."

*Looking up from his paperwork, he came to rest his eye on Killick who stood there in the doorframe.*

"Indeed Killick, your right. First off, your to get aquainted with the ship. I want you to go take the grande tour of the Lady (Go to the Vessel Overlook & Then to the Virtual Tour). Afterwhich, I''d like you to see to the maitenance and shapeliiness of the Quarterdeck. Brass needs polishing and the last battle has left our aftrail in dire need of re-sanding and painting. Please see to it. Also stow away all loose rig and possibley make sure the compass is re-alligned. Also, I am putting you in charge of crew revilrey. When I need crew to assemble on deck to prepare for a battle, I need you to grab the brass drum, of which is there in the corner; take it with you when you go & don''t forget the sticks... And I need you to "beat to quarters". The command will be carried as followed:

, I, Captain J. K. will give the order to the first officer I can find, it will then come to you. As soon as you get the order, you will begin a steady drum roll that wil last until all hands are on the deck. Along with your beating to quarters, the Bosun - Kubain, will pipe to the hands. It''s a shrill call, so the hands will hear it better down below.

That brings us to the end. Please send in Kubain when you see him. I must speak with him. That will be all, Killick. Thank You.
