Dante entered his office at the Asunder Inc. crab fishing warehouse and headed to the desk. He had been travelling for over a month trying to expand his business. He returned to check the books, and maybe make a few fishing voyages with the crew. He did love sailing, although he couldn't fly outright, he imagined that sailing was probably the closest thing a land bound creature could achieve next to it. He sat down on the stool, that he purposefully brought in so that he could spread his wings and have room for his tail, then got to work. Everything looked in order, Old Beard was a trust worthy dwarf as were all the other men on the ship. Dante found himself excited to be able to go out on another fishing voyage with them on the next brightening, weather permiting. As he was working, there was a knock at the door.
"Enter." was all Dante replied. A stout young looking dwarf with a relatively young beard entered the office.
"Ah Captain, your back. I saw the door open and figured I better check it out," explained Old Beard for the intrusion.
Dante smiled at his first mate, then rose and gave him a firm hand shake. "It's good to see you Mr. Old Beard. I can see I left everything to the right person. Everything seems in order," Dante replied with a grin.
"Aye captain," Old Beard smiled "you have a good crew here and they're loyal."
"Aye that I know. How is everyone?"
"They are well Captain. Meran and Pip have been about and are looking to give you their reports when it's an opportune moment. We've been taking Meran with us on the ship while you were gone so we could keep the fishing up," Old Beard explained.
"Good idea. Tell them I'll be here for the rest of the cycle at least and they can find me here, on the ship, or at my room in the Leap of Faith. Whenerver they are good," Dante replied. "So how's my ship?"
"She's as good as ever. You want to go take a looke at her?" Old Beard questioned hopefully.
"That I do, Mr. Old Beard." Dante replied with a laugh. Then the pair left the office and headed for the Hatorania.
