Hey Newbies, over here first Come on in and tell us more about yourself. IMPORTANT: For new members, please read "New Members Only" BEFORE registering.
Well...I can legitimately justify the confusion based on scrolling speed, and the proximity of your posts to each other, and the similar blues in your avatars...
TROY: Hile Troy. I'm captain of the Millennium Forestal. Ruel here tells
me you're looking for passage to the Andelain system.
MHORAM: Yes, indeed. If it's a fast ship.
TROY: Fast ship? You've never heard of the Millennium Forestal?
MHORAM: Should I have?
TROY: It's the ship that made the Kemper run in less than twelve
parsecs!
TROY: (continued) I've outrun Giantships, not the local
bulk-cruisers, mind you. I'm talking about the big Covenant ships
now. She's fast enough for you, old man. What's the cargo?
MHORAM: Only passengers. Myself, the boy, two Waynhim, and no questions
asked.
TROY: What is it? Some kind of local trouble?
MHORAM: Let's just say we'd like to avoid any Elohim entanglements.
TROY: Well, that's the trick, isn't it? And it's going to cost you
something extra. Ten thousand in advance.
LIAND: Ten thousand? We could almost buy our own ship for that!
TROY: But who's going to sail it, kid! You?
LIAND: You bet I could. I'm not such a bad sailor myself! We don't have
to sit here and listen...
MHORAM: We could pay you two thousand
now, plus fifteen when we reach Andelain.
TROY: Seventeen, huh!
Okay. You guys got yourself a ship. We'll leave as soon as you're
ready. Pier Ninety-four.
