Karl is almost trembling with anticipation; Kron has the steadfast look of a soldier that has seen battle before. However, Barnacle Bill notices that Meshtak is clinging to the side of the ship, looking green. (No mean feat considering his furry face.) Barnacle Bill approaches the Draga. "You all right, friend?" he asks. "*urp*" says Meshtak. "Dragas usually stay on the plains...I'm not used to the sea much...urg...think maybe I ate too much at the inn..." Barnacle Bill wanders off as Meshtak fights to keep his meal down. Meanwhile, the Broadmarch can be seen in the distance, and the ship is approaching fast. They can also see another ship, approaching the Broadmarch from the right. It is the Narwhal, and it appears that it will reach the Broadmarch long before the Morning Breeze. The Captain is watching the Narwhal through his telescope. "How odd..." he says."It's moving at an unnatural speed." Then he shifts his glance to the Broadmarch, just in time to see two figures appear on the ships deck. Rhoan and Tvarne. Meshtak moans, clutching his shiftblade in his paw, praying that he will be wellenough to fight. Meshtak the Draga -- "You can't help that.
