27 Field trip, just taking care of some business, multitasking is easier than you might think.
Yuki Eiri - Initial sales figures have been very good. There's currently a worldwide push distribution in effect for the newest novel. It may very well outsell your last manuscript by two or three times. Easily. All those who've ordered will be receiving their copies in the mail within the next two days. All of you who'd still like to order are free to mention so here.
So, as I promised:
Thank you very much for your assistance today, Elphaba. For such a large fleet of supposedly successful pirate-smugglers, they certainly didn't have much interest in remaining so. Due to a certain...indiscretion, I needed to take steps. What could have been a tedious though necessary remonstration as I tracked them down throughout the day was instead rather delightful. I hope you had a good time; I know I did.
There were five ships total, scattered some distance away from each other so as not to attract too much attention. We found the first one in the morning, when most of the crew were either hungover or still intoxicated in celebration of their successful raid of the day before. A little unfair, perhaps, since they didn't really have a chance, but then, neither did the village they raided two nights ago.
I didn't realize I had put the camera on this setting until afterward.
Halfway through the day we caught up with two of their smaller vessels.
The last two (one of them the flagship) eluded us until after dark. They surrendered and cleared off the first one and then we set fire to the other.
Perhaps, Haruhi Suzumiya, you might find some use for these? Actual explosions can be difficult to stage and are always very useful as far as movies go.
That one ship made it through intact and perfectly serviceable. It's a little small to suit my taste, but it's certainly spacious enough for twenty people to comfortably live, with enough room to take on provisions for up to six months. In short, there's a lot of storage space.
And again, from the front:
I have a few more things to take care of, and then I'll be going to bed. Do not disturb me.
