Gisli eyes open wide when he heard the
word enchanter. "Enchanter?" he asked. "Yes.
Magician, sage, wizard..." Mysti said. "Did you bless
this boat?" asked Gisli. "Wha?" "Did you bless
this boat so that we don't get attacked by the Sea
Serpent?" asked Gisli. "Umm... I... was... just about
to do that," Mysti recovered. "Good, you better do
that before we get too far. The Serpent can come up and
eat this boat whole if he was tempted..." Gisli said as
he pulled out a large block of wood and began
carving. Mysti walked away, doing this behind Gisli's
back. Meanwhile, Dr Warrell got back on board just
before the boat shipped off. He was admiring the motor
and engine down below, wondering what kind of fuel this
boat used to make it fly. Speedy was on the bow,
enjoying the feeling of wind through her feathers. Just
like flying... oh wait! We are! Speedy thought as she
smiled.
On the bridge: Hi there FM, you said
you'd like to navigate; I think that's great! Since
Elkaes relto is the only thing on the radar right now,
i'ts really our only point of reference, so I think
we'll set a course that's a slow spiral out from there.
that way we shouldn't miss anything, OK?
Captain
Stubing, would you please take the helm for a while, or
better yet, once FM sets the course we can put it on
auto-pilot. I'm going out on deck for a
while

Gisli finished his carving of wood. Out
came a nice little dragon head:
He then went up
to the bow of the boat, gently pushed Speedy out of the
way, and attached the wooden head to the bow of the
yacht. "There!" he gruffed as he admired his
work. Speedy gave a weird look. Wood and yacht don't
mix in her opinion, but if it makes Gisli feel
comfortable, then why not? Gisli turned around and
went to the cockpit of the yacht and saw of the
buttons. "Holy Odin!" he muttered. Meanwhile in
the engine room, Dr Warrell was having fun with the
motor. "Now what does this wire do?" he said aloud as
he touched a wire.
Dr sputnik wakes up and finds that, happily,
he did manage to make it to Elkae's Relto in time for
the boat trip - though he can't honestly recall the
details of the journey.
"Hmm... I wonder if there
are any rooms left?"
The Dr wanders off to find
his sea (air?) legs and hopefully a
room...

Veronica sat at the counter in the
DISCO, chewing on a fig newton as she studied the torn photograph she had discovered in
the office by the docks. Grizz walked into the store and
she called him over to show it to him. "This is me, but
I am not sure who those other people are." She pulled
the file from her backpack with the original photograph
and note and showed him those as well. She told him what
Chuckles had told her
earlier.
"I want to go back to that office and
search some more, want to go with
me?"
"I have no idea either, but that person on
the right is wearing a maintainer suit from Gahreesen.
Yes, I think I do want to go with you back to that
office at the ferry terminal. And it kinda looks like
you need to go to Gahreesen for another look around too.
I'll be glad to go there with you as
well."

Elkae pops into the DISCO looking for
help with her communication dilemma.
"Hi,
Veronica. Hi, Grizz. I wonder if you have a carrier
pigeon or a ship-to-shore radio or something I could use
to get a message to the Navis Caelorum? It's
urgent and I'm starting to panic."
She looks at
Grizz first. He puts a finger to his temple and looks as
if his brain is about to short circuit. Elkae looks at
Veronica and finds her looking at Grizz.

Pleased to be aboard the Navis Caelorum,
Cordelia starts to make herself at home in her State
Room. She starts to unpack her things.
"Now then,
did I forget anything?" she wonders as she takes out
laptop computer, printer, pens, pencils, notepads,
files, filing cabinet.....
Eventually, when she
has produced almost the entire contents of her office
from her suitcase - it was like Mary Poppins' bag - she
gets to the bottom and finds her swimming costume,
suntan lotion, camera and of course, most importantly of
all..... her umbrella
No sooner has Cordelia arrived on deck
having finished unpacking than she has to duck. You never know quite what is
floating around in the air above the
clouds!

Meanwhile, boatingirl has been rummaging
around for her suntan lotion. "Rats! I must have
left it in my lab! no one should notice if I quick link
out and get it"

I
know, I know, but no one was coming to the rescue, and
my last post was me going to get suntan lotion I'll get back on
the boat quickly; oh and I think we need some kind of
communications expert on board!
