Rory wrote:: "Don't worry. I will." Hearing the resolve tightening Konrad's tone as he vows to pursue Snicker to the ends of the oceans fills you with Determination.

Kolson wrote:: "May we have use of a ship again? It would be faster and we have no idea how long this will take or how far we'll have to go. And he adds quietly, "And we don't have to worry about endangering civilians by using their ships."

Zeiss wrote:: Sonlake considers Steve's idea for some time, and ultimately nods. "I believe I know one ship whose captain would be willing to take you wherever you need to go; the Phoenix. It will leave shore tomorrow at 0700."

Mihai will leave if there's nothing else.

Rory wrote:: When it is just him, Konrad closes the door. "Just how closely are the Coins and the Free Feathers military working together regarding this issue?"

Zeiss wrote:: Sonlake tilts his head, wondering where this is going. "This will depend on my superiors' decision regarding this matter. I suspect we will share this new information with them, so they can relay it to the Citadel's Council, who will then decide what is the best course of action for the Free Feathers. Why do you ask?"

Rory wrote:: "There is another possible target. She was part of the squad they sent with us to retrieve the package we know by the name 'Conan'. Her name is Naomi."

Zeiss wrote:: The handler examines Konrad's features, but quickly turns his attention on his sheet of paper and writes down the name on it. "Yes, I know who you speak of. I will take the appropriate measures."

Zeiss wrote:: Next morning, the party stands on pier number three where the Phoenix is docked. Sitting on the rail with one leg kept inside the ship and with a long pipe stuck in his mouth is Tom Blackcliff, the Commander of the Coins. On his shoulder stands a small winged creature, eerily similar to Breeze. Unlike the blue-haired girl however, this fairy appears to be in his mid-twenties, and wears a rustic red tunic, a blue cloak with square patterns, and brown trousers. "Hi!" he shouts while waving at the group. His black hair is cut clean and short. "Come aboard!"

Rory wrote:: Konrad walks up the gangplank and offers a hand to Blackcliff. "Good to see you again, Commander."

He smiles at the fairy and waits them to get the greetings out of the way. "Nice ship. Smaller than the Barracuda, but strong and tough. Is she yours?"

Zeiss wrote:: Blackcliff puffs on his pipe. To Mihai, he says, "It certainly seems so."

To Steve, "That's Felix. Say hello Felix."

The cloaked fairy replies with a tight smile. "What, am I also supposed to perform a trick? Roll on my back?"

"Charming as always..."

Breeze is curious and happy to meet another one of her brethren, although she appears to be a little shy. Felix gently waves at her, and she responds in kind.

The commander shakes Konrad's hand, and answers him in a sharp tone. "Yes, it is. And it will take you where you need to go."

He examines the party with his eyes.

Rory wrote:: "Where are you from, Felix? How long have you been with Blackcliff?"

Zeiss wrote:: "Exactly."

Blackcliff puffs on his pipe again. Felix is listening attentively to the conversation with the same amiable smile on his face, but then focuses on Konrad. His smile disappears, and he lowers his head in a pensive motion.

"Me and a few friends found him in the Enclave while we were on a recon mission," the commander answers. "He's been with us since."
