Oh yes, Alistair was more than familiar with O&K Shipping, their hold on the Vel Luin to Vel Anir pipeline was very tight, so Alistair's ventures had left them to it. It was exactly as he had suspected, merchant companies were not about to take this innovation lying down. "Fair point, the...

"I suppose I'll do that later today then. I might as well assist the fort while I'm here. Besides, I have to stay a few days while my workers take orders from the fort." He would have lost it if he was sitting around with nothing to do, anyway. Alistair had never met or worked with the General...

Alistair would have continued with the conversation with a quickened pace driven by worry, but he completely stopped to admire the steak before him. Damn, that was good. He savored two bites before finally focusing back in on the topic at hand. There was a pause of several seconds while...

That comment left plenty unsaid, which Alistair was sure Same realized. It would not be for asking, and that just meant that it would have to be for the taking. It would not be long, for now, their generation was on the bottom of the hierarchy, but signs were already beginning to show their...

A look of concern crossed his face at the bout of coughing displayed by Amos, but it went away as soon as the coughing ceased. He had been concerned that his magic had been the cause, but it did not last long. Then, a large smile spread onto Alistair's face, partially caused by the success of...

Impressive, very impressive. The success of the plan revolved around the complicated creation of this 'engine', but it seemed that Amos had already completed that part. The rest of the plan was kept relatively simple. Keep tracks straight, and then rails which would only be slightly more...

Alistair could not stop smiling, it was just a cuteness overload. Everything about Kristen was just so perfect. Her sense of duty, the way she treated her family, her fighting skills, her tenacity, all of it was perfect. He went to speak again, but paused, "Oh, you have something right there."...

Altruism? Not a common word muttered among Vel Anir's nobility. It was rare that Alistair had the chance to interact with someone who had that in mind, but it was a nice change of pace. A small smile drew to his face as his eyes turned to the sound of the men talking. The guards also liked him...

By now, a rune on Alistair's hand shimmered with magical preparation as he began to step forward. Those were a lot of guards. Had they left the rest of the place unmanned? "Captain Tilley-" "Where are they?!" the large man roared in outrage Alistair was taken aback, completely speechless...

"Excellent, and if you don't mind me asking, who all currently supports you?" Alistair valued innovation, and that was true, and Vel Anir would certainly be better for it. However, even moral endeavors could hold a small private incentive. If Amos' plans worked then all of Vel Anir would be far...

Alistair was quick to pick up on the tone. Yes, he had become more aware of when people were annoyed with him. He quickly stashed the notebook away before dismissively waving his hand. "Unfortunately, that is unlikely. The boat was a personal hobby, but all the others require approval and a...

Alistair nodded in understanding, seemingly looking off into the distance, not directly at any of them. He had not really thought about what Amos said, but he was right. The Republic did not like keeping the Dreadlords away from their city-conquering duties, which was an oversight in his own...

Oh, that's right Elias was her too...great. As soon as Sam took the bait, he pulled out a notebook from his pack that contained several drawings and extremely advanced runic formulas. "For starters, my pride and joy The Chain Maiden my flagship for my trading fleet. It has so many runes...

Alistair lightly pouted at Sam's admittance, but it made sense. There was not much time for crafting for a soldier. Alistair was the opposite, it felt like he spent more time crafting and experimenting than fighting these days. Hell, the few times he did get to fight, he stabbed people in the...

To outfit the entire Blackguard would be...expensive to say the least. It would likely deplete most of Alistair's stores at the moment, but it would be worth it. He might even buy himself a new villa. "Oh, I'm sure the General and Noel will love the stuff. I brought enough to make a good...
