Bringing in New cargo

[tommyhook]

Sometimes, the Everquesting sails into port quietly, no flags flying, the Cap'n at the helm, the crew going casually around their tasks. Sometimes, it sails in under cover of shadow, purposefully making no noise, unloading its cargo in utter silence, making sure to not be seen.

"It's... a concrete box." It's a concrete box that's been chained shut and covered in carvings, but none of that matters to a disappointed Wyn. "I thought it was going to be something exciting, the way you were carrying on." she continues from her perch at the bar, Hex next to her (and steadily ignoring everything around him).
