Re: Trouble in the Deep (sturm) GMed by thetwo
The man accepted the beer, and took a large sip, smiling. "Ah, that's better." While he did, Amber considered the distances. With the current, she could probably reach the island within a day. Maybe a little more to reach the shore nearby, as the current curved out away from the land as it approached the island.
That done, she asked further about getting there by more conventional means, among the shorebound. The sailor had to think about it a little longer, and by the time he answered he'd taken a few more large sips. "Well, you can see what's in our harbor. Ain't nobody taking you from here, not soon. Probably faster to go overland most of the way, if you've got a horse." The sailor, of course, wouldn't know that Amber could move through the water somewhat more quickly than most, much what about deep currents. "And, uh... can't remember any of the ports around there offhand. Little ones, what don't really seem to last long, what with the aliens in the desert and all. Stick to the coast and you'll find half a dozen of 'em, probably. Idiots always trying to push into Anudor."
