Blue looked around the tavern. It was like most bars in Micae, full of drunks. Still maybe there would be someone would be worth her time. Yeah and next time she picked up a handful of beach sand she'd find a diamond. Chances were just as good. Still she would try.
Since reaching Micae she had tracked down enough of her employers to buy a good sturdy ship and had enought to hire a crew. But the only ones who would sign up for this venture were the daredevils and the idiots. So far she had not had much luck in that catagory. Blue wondered how well Blake was doing on his quest to find a Naiad, but she would leave that to him.
"Listen up. I'm hiring for a ocean journey on a good ship. The money will be paid upon completion of the journey. This is a one trip thing, you aren't being asked to sign up for longer. If your interested speak now or come to Gallows Dock, thrid ship from the harbor end." Blue watched annoyed as some men laughed. Here was this Pretty little Faye wanting to hire them! Some one yelled they weren't drunk enought yet to be taken into a Faye trick. Blue walked out of the Tavern disgusted. She had gotten the same response in the 6 other Taverns and inss she had tried. Why did she have to be born a Faye? Why?

Nicholas slowly departed from the position he was at in the tavern. He walked out and looked toward the female. "Hey!" Nicholas ran toward her. "About your job. Sounds like it could be of benefit to me. I will accept it if you don't mind."

Blue looked the man over. He may have been the only one interesed in the job but she couldn't go and hire people who would be more of a burdon than a help. "Alright, but ypu should know that this trip is to the Black Waters, the supposedly cursed sea. If your still interested we can talk about how much experience you have with boats and what your pay will be." Blue said as clam and cool as ever.

Landra walked over to Blue slowly and quietly, still a bit drowzy from her arrival. She had walked to the city from a strange beach in Tyraan for a while and had finally reached her destination. "I'm willing to come as your chef on the ship," she told Blue, trying to stand up as straight as possible.

Blue was surprised, two people were actually taking her serious and asking to join, though the girl looked a tad drunk. Both appeared in good physical condition. "As I told him this trip will be over the Black Waters, I'm sure you've heard the rumors about it. Considering that the pay is pretty high, and you get paid once the trip is over so don't think you can take the money and run. So far you two are the only ones I've got that are even interested though there the person whose idea this whole thing is, Blake. He is off looking for a naiad since even he knows that to sail the Black Waters without one is death. If he can't find one there will be no trip and no pay but if he can we'll leave as soon as we have crew enough to sail. The ship is pretty good size and of very good quality. You guys still interested?"

"You needn't worry about me. I'm a bit of what one might called...in tuned to the waters..." Nicholas grinned slightly before cracking his neck. "As for something like a boat...I used to travel on them as protection for merchants. I quickly learned how to operate, meneuver, and control many ships in the past several years." Nicholas felt that he'd spoken more than he regularly liked to in a short time and thus decided not to go any futher into any of the subjects.

"Of course I'm still interested!" Landra exclaimed happily. "Nothing could drive me away from this." She didn't really have anything else to do with her life, so why not add some danger to it?

If Blue had been an emotional person she might have danced from joy. This was the knid of person they needed for this insane adventure. Instead she nodded. "Well then you most definatly have the job. The name is Blue, and as I told you the other employer is Blake." Blue noticed how he told only a few facts about his past, that meant he was hiding something. But Blue herself was hiding things, after all she hadn't told either of these two she was a offical assassin and that their pay had been gotten by killing others. Everyone had their secrets.

Blue was surprised by the girls enthusium but also took that with a calm face. "Alright since I can't cook to save my life I guess your hired as well. I guess you'll need to buy the supplies, here take this." Blue tossed a heavy bag of gold to the girl. "And if you need anything tell me and I can supply you with some cash." She said to the man.

"I'm Landra. Thank you so much for letting me come!" She sounded like a little child who had been invited to play with the "big kids" now, and she stopped talking to stop herself from saying anything else this stupid. Life seemed so wonderful now...Only the gods could have given me this much luck, she thought with respect.

Again the girl was enthusastic about what most would call a suicide mission. Oh well, don't look a gift horse in the mouth and all. "Well then would you like to go buy supplies firts or see the ship to get your stuff put away?"

"Everything I have on me is all I feel the need to take. Food, water, entertainment, and 'tools of my trade'...so...I'm set and ready to go at any time. I will be keeping all my things on me at all times though so I don't need to store anything." Nicholas looked toward the sky as he watched some clouds move through the air.

"Well then since I already told you where to find the ship I guess your free to do whatever you want. Till Blake gets back with a naiad we're not doing much. When he does I'll make sure to find you and tell you we're going. What's your name by the way?"

"Alright, I'm off to find supplies," Landra said cheerfully, half-skipping half-walking off. She looked around in the market for food and supplies for cooking. "Pots, spoons, pans...." she muttered, checking off the imaginary list in her head. She briefly wondered where the Faye had gotten the heavy sack of gold, but forgot about it and continued to go around with heavy bags of supplies, picturing herself as she often did now sailing the seas on a huge ship.

Nicholas glanced back momentarily and smiled before heading toward the boat. "My name? We'll just go with Nicholas for now."
