Even though Vesper is so quiet - That the silence, almost drives me insane
the Veeties do theire best to keep themself entertained, while they wait for Customers to arrive.
Last week, I were tidying up in the attic.
I found some of Dad's old chests, holding old armor, kilts, skullscaps cutlass's, some black old flags, tattered old maps with huge X's on them.
I opended another chest and there I fell over alot of fishing-nets. Truth be told - I can't imagin my Dad to sit on his ship and fish..
I mean, the old Bastard, prefer Grog, Rum and Wenches.
Anyways - With the lack of Customers, I decided to bring the fishingnets with me to the Swaggers, were I found the - Always loyal Veeties
Angie, Declan and one of our new faces - Tony.
I told them about my cunning plan! We were gonna go out fishing! Personally, I hoped for a mother fecker huge chest loaded with doubloons!
But.. A handful of doubloons, would also be accepted!
Now I have this lil' boat, Dad gave me, before he dissapeared, so all we had to do was choose a Captain for a day!
Dad would be so ashamed. Beeing a daugther of a Pirate and without the slightest clue, how to control a fecking boat!
- But thank Gawd, I aint the only one lacking knowledge about boats!
Tony was rather quiet. And I have - according to Locke, a tendensy to sink them, by just looking at them!
I swear, it was a accident! Must have been some crappy boat, I borrowed from the shores in Vesper! CLEARLY!
Now Angie, well she got a thing with bridges and since we were outside the Swaggers and there is loads of bridges,
Angie didn't get many votes either! So Declan finally volenteered to be our Captain and of we went - Or... Is it out?
We sailed out and I handed out a green fishingnet for each one of us.
And then we tossed them in, one at the time. We didn't catch any huge chests, filled with gems and doubloons, but only some Sea Serpents,
Water Elementals and a nasty orange one with long whipping arms!
When the pesky creatures were slayed, we picked up the doubloons, they had been eating from other unlucky Sailors.
I suggested, we took theire hides aswell - Because Susanna, the Swaggers Seamstress could make some armor for the Veeties in need.
We pushed our luck a bit too far. There were some coloured fishingnets aswell, and Tony hurled a net out!
Ow! Ow! Ow!
If the Orange fecker, that hit us before were tough, the ones we pulled in now were far worse.
First Declan got knocked of his feet, then my mind went black, and I aint sure which ones of the Crew who then fell.
When we finally got back to our senses, the wind had moved us so far away from Vesper and closer to Trinsie.
We decided - Prolly because of the bruises, lumps and wounds, that we had done enough fishing. So we sailed to the docks in Trinsie, gave the Tillerman orders to sail my boat back
to Vesper and then we went towards the moongate.

Wesley finally got managed to escape the British Port Authority.
He dressed up as a woman and somehow managed to fool the feckers! Har!
Thats what you get for keeping a Veetie behind bars.
However - Heddy did ask me some days, before Wesley escaped, if Wesley knew about him and me.
Blergh! No! I ain't sure what Heddy exspected, but I could'nt tell Wesley, while he was behind bars.That would just be too mean.
But the question didn't stop there... Heddy wanted to know, what I would do when Wesley got out and he asked me to be honest about it.
For once, I actually were. I told him, like it was - I didn't know.
The day, Wesley ented the door to the Swaggers... I spotted him, rushed up to him and hugged and kissed him.
Telling him how great it was to see him. Gawd, I had missed him, so much - My charming Captain, were back in Vesper.
Wesley were tired after the trip home and I followed him upstairs and Wesley fell asleep, while I were laying next to him.
I couldn't keep my hands from him. I keept running my fingers over his hair, so reliefed that he was back hom and safe.
Sitting here now and thinking back at that day - I hate to admit it, but Hedlyn weren't even in my thoughts.
- - - - - - - - - -
I were in Yew the other day. I went to check on Heddy's house in what they call Nihon. I will never learn the way through the forest,
I always get lost! - However, there is one thing I learned though! The fecking Yewians are a bunch of dogs! All of them! Bloodi backstabbers!
When I left Heddy's house, it was almost eve and I got changed into the Veetie clothes, cause it was my turn to stay in the bar.
I decided, that since I am total helpless in the yewish forest and didn't have time to waste beeing lost, I follow the road through Stonekeep.
I checked, I had the 50 doubloons for the tax and then of I went.
When I reached the Crossroads outside Stonekeep, there was this huuuuuge shrine!
And then the first lesson came - The Yewish Guardsmen, don't have any humour - What so ever!
I walked up to them - Said hello and then added "Wauw! I didn't know the Yewish preferred a mess this big" - Followed by a chuckle.
Then the D'Gar Guard just frownded and then he was sure, he had seen me before. Now here, I made my second mistake.
But, I honestly thought we were on neutral terms with the Yewians. They mind theire business and we mind ours.
I told him, that I was from Vesper. And Helloooooooo!!!
- We have been at theire Tavern Nights, Some of them visited the Vesper Fair, Theire Baron - Caden had hired us as dancers for his
Gentleman Night... But no!
They hate Vesper, as much as I hate Macil!
A Guard raised his mace, maul - Whatever and aimed a wack for me! I bloodi didn't do anything!
I lifted my arm up to parry his blow... With that quencequense that my arm broke! Fecking hell, that did hurt!
I bursted out, while hugging my broken arm, what the feck they were doing and then ofcause I called them arseholes or something like that.
Then I just heared the click and the next thing I saw, was the Rookie aiming for me... The bolt came through the air, as fast as a Vesperian Mage can cast a lightning strike and
the bolt pierced it's way through my shirt and into my side! Oh Gawd... I can't think of anything else, that hurts that much!
Well, mebbe the 17 lashes I had under the wars with them in Minoc.
I was told to leave and trust me - There was nothing more I wanted to!
If I have had, any scrolls - I would have opend the books and get the feck out before they could have said "OI LASS!"
A Besieger keept following me, aiming pointless hits for me..
I nay get it.
Why do the yewish Guards, see Civvies as threats.
Only good thing about it - THEY DIDN'T GET ANY FECKING TAX!
Suits the Bastards and I swear, they will get what they deserve!
More later..
