Seemed like city life, any city, birthed a certain kind of person. Acteon conceded to the complicated life suiting him and Gal could only more confidently nod her agreements considering what she had learned about the man in the short time she had known him. She didn't get the appeal, but she...

Gal puffed a small laugh at Acteon's response. She had a lop-sided smile, not jumping immediately at the opportunity he pointed out yet also clearly not discouraged by it either. She liked having fun and already considered a number of those on board, Acteon included, to be her friends. But there...

Acteon made these kinds of jobs sound like they normally had little injury. She couldn't help but think about how previously he mentioned people being scared of the ship going down and everyone drowning horribly. Perhaps Acteon still had the most realistic outlook and those mercenaries whom...

Acteon spoke of his past. Of bad men, bloodshed, and close calls. According to the one leading them, this was some kind of well-known story, but Gal had never heard it before. It didn't entirely surprise her; her clan members rarely went into town and any that did, if they heard of Acteon's...

Gal had expected that, back at the docks, she had only bumped into and befriended a random man. Like she had done many times before, and would undoubtedly do again and again. It was continuously surprising to see the scruffy man take command. It was amusing, and Gal had never gotten to play this...

Gal had taken a fighting stance, ready to defend herself while giving the chance for her friend to run. Or at least otherwise defend her. She hadn't expected the ship to lurch, but her posture was already stable and she only swayed awkwardly in her spot. Well, she definitely didn't like that...

Gal nodded when Acteon kept the 'fine details' to himself for now, satisfied enough that he didn't seem pissed now that he was officially committed to being on this ship. At the mention of the turnip, the orc took a step away from the crowd, about to leave. The two had their own plans, and Gal...

Gal felt someone nudge her and she immediately looked over. Her expression brightening to see a familiar face; Acteon! At his question, Gal barked a laugh; "I don't know!" Gold had been exchanged, she'd booed, ahh-ed, and cheered, but she hadn't been keeping track of anything. She was pretty...

Gal listened to the man as they walked. At the mention of a very valuable resource, she gave an understanding "ahh," as if she had a good guess as to what it was. Or at least the notion that there were things far, far more valuable than plain old coin. She had no questions on it, but her...

Gal’s curiosity was piqued by Acteon’s proclamations. He was confident in his abilities, and more than arm wrestling her, Gal was actually half-tempted to make a boat-wide competition of it. Apparently being a pretty girl was good luck around these parts, so she was interested to see how that’d...

The orc’s demeanor settled a little once the man elaborated. She still had a fairly serious expression on, but without animosity towards Acteon. She had decided some things about him, namely that he was a bit like her; nice but sometimes poor with words. He’d made it right as rain by the time he...

Gal was keen-eyed, she noticed the stranger glance her over. She simply didn’t think much of it. She was a lot to look at, and a lot of people had done so in one way or another upon entering the city. She decided against ever commenting on it. Before he spoke up, Gal’s attention had temporarily...

Gal was still learning what to even make of ‘the urban expanse’ and crowded spaces when she heard news of mercenary work. Apparently the amount of people in a capital didn’t make word travel any slower than it did amongst mere siblings. She too had only just heard about there being something...
