FranzCastellan: ::he was on the docks, with gangs of men::cargo was being unloaded from the smaller boats by hand, it took a little longer than usual but the bay was meant to offer some protecton from a beach landing by anyone mounting an attack from the thassa::
Rodicus Primarus: ::the sails of the fleet would be seen by lookouts, and he had planned their arival for daytime, in clear skies. three round ships, two heavy rams, and three serpents. the fleet stopped outside of the small entrance to the harbour, the flags of House Primarus, a grey flag, with the figure of a man and a hammer beating on an anvil on each ship.
Marius Of Torv: He saw the men to the docks as he walked out of the main Hall...And ships in the far out distance to the Thassa. He walked to the droves of men gathered there...Moving through them to stand just behind Franz.
Nevaeh Serinas: :: Nevaeh stood on the deck and watched as they came into port:::
Rodicus Primarus: A flag was waived to a serpent, and the flagship waited ::
Arin DarkShaddow: ::His ship would be that first to sail into the harbor, Arin was after all the head of Rod's security, Arin himself was at the bow of the ship, his voice would drift over the lapping waves of the harbor:: Hail, we are Rodicus Primatus' party, where should we dock the ships?
Rodicus Primarus: ::He stood on the deck of his Flagship, "Primarus Pearl" Wearing his grey tunic, edged in cut gems, his war hammer over his shoulder, Issy and the children, and Neva beside him::
FranzCastellan: ::He strode over to his men and issued commands shouting loudly above the noise of the docks:
Marius Of Torv: Marius simply stood there just ahead of the growing crowd. All of Fehu Isa seemed very excited about this particular arrival.
FranzCastellan: ::the little barges would sail upto the serpent ships and the dock master would shout::anchor here!!..we can pick you up in the barges
Arin DarkShaddow: ::The serpent's captian began barking orders as Arin nodded and moved back towards the stern of the ship, signiling the rest of the small fleet to move into the safety of the harbor::
FranzCastellan: ::Franz watched from the actual dock itself the impressive arrival. His men knew their jobs inside out and would sail a short distance from the bigger ships into the harbour::
Arin DarkShaddow: ::The crew of the ship soon had the oars drawn into the ship and the anchor would splash down, the ship itself drifting with its own momentum to pull the chain tight and finally come to a bobbing stop, men would move over the deck, setting everything into place as Arin moved easily among them, keeping an eye on the heavy ram that carried the majority of his troops
FranzCastellan: ::he noticed his magistrate then and grinned, he slapped him on the shoulder:we have been expecting them for hands now
Marius Of Torv: He looked to Franz and he smiled with a nod.
Rodicus Primarus: ::::he nodded, and gave the signal, sending the "Milea Stardust' in first, the ship moved through the Harbour entrance, and pulled in next to 'Arins Serpent', heavy ropes lashing the ships together::
FranzCastellan: ::the little barges would manouver slowly onto the sides of the Serpents and others when they were leashed together::the men would motion for the crews to climb down into them::
Rodicus Primarus: ::the Milea was the Main Mercenary Ship, and would be the ship crossed to get to the Pearl::
Arin DarkShaddow: He didn't try to bark orders himself, the seamen knew what they were doing, moving to the opposite rail, he'd nod to the men in the smaller crafts sent to carry people on shore, as tasks were finished on the serprnt, the men would start to board the barges::
Rodicus Primarus: Next, the Fire Opal, the Trade Ram, entered, and Tied to the second ship, then the Pearl came in and tied up, and so on, until the fleet was all in the port, all lashed together, and boards were set between ships. ::
FranzCastellan: :the men on the barges waited patiently for the crews to disembark and clamber onto them::they held the line firm against the bigger ships::the crowd on the docks was seen growing larger by the ihn::
Marius Of Torv: It was a good day for these people to have arrived. The weather was a mild 22 degrees Fahrenheit...Partly cloudy skies...The winds mild.
Rodicus Primarus: ::Seeing all the ships securely tied, He led his family to the boards, and then to the Serpent. He nodded, and said to Arin":You go first, and We will come in the Next barge"
FranzCastellan: ::the men in the barges would help anyone across who needed it with any personal effects that needed to be shifted::the ropes would be released and the barges shoved off the bigger craft, the oars were lowered and the men rowed into the docks::
Arin DarkShaddow: Yes, Sir ::Now it was time for Arin to begin the ordering around, the house shaddows followed Arin into the barge when it returned, the majority of his men would remain on the ships for a time, making certain everything was secure and would take later barges to the shore, when Arin and the fifteen elite of Rod's personal guard reached shore, Arin would ask to see the Administrator of the Hall::
FranzCastellan: ::oars raised as they neared the side and Franz and his men would grab the ropes thrown to them and pull them into the side of the dock:
Rodicus Primarus: ::He stood on the Barge with His Compainion, Ldy Isolde Malen, carrying his infant son, his ten var old daughter, Roseta, his en Safora, Rods Thiera, His Se Safora, Rods Ora, The House Physician, Lady Nevaeh Serinas, House Kitchen Mistress, Lady Zuri Kamaryia
Nevaeh Serinas: :: Nevaeh stayed with the Family. They were her priority:::
Rodicus Primarus: ::He stepped onto the pier, and his fifteen stepped in around him and his family. these were all very big, nasty looking men, and they all looked about, though waited for a signal from Arin::
Marius Of Torv: His icy calm stare moved to each man there. Indeed...As nasty as any man he had seen in the north.
FranzCastellan: ::the kailla arrived with Ivan leading from the front, as per orders any large contingent were arranged to meet by thirty well armed men::Franz himself would stride over to the him as he heard him speak, The men would dismount , their bows nestled in their arms::but..non threatening yet ready to react to any threatened action::
Rodicus Primarus: ::"The huge metal worker did not look like he needed protection. He was tall, and wide shouldered, heavily muscled, wearing the grey of his caste, which matched his eyes. He looked about for the Administrator, or his representative::
Arin DarkShaddow: ::He would assume the man who approached was the leader, his arm was extended:: Tal, I am Arin Darkshaddow, leader of the troops of House Primarus, thank you for allowing us to harbor here
FranzCastellan: ::he nodded as he spoke::I am Franz Castellan..I run Fehu Isa and you are welcome to my Hall
Acheron Sinis: Having Heard the commotion going on at the docks, Herrold, formerly known as Papo and having disguiesed himself with a full grown in beard and the dress and talk of a torv, causally strolled up into the crowd
to take a look to these newcomers.
Arin DarkShaddow: ::With introduction and welcome, Arin would give the subtle signal to the fifteen and the group would bring Rod and his family to meet Franz::
Rodicus Primarus: ::he stepped up, his grey eyes showing light friendly look. ::"Tal, I am Captain Rodicus Primarus, of House Primarus, Of Port Kar. Thank you for welcoming us"
FranzCastellan: ::he noticed Herrold and nodded to him::Tal Brother
FranzCastellan: :he turned back to the Captain who spoke::he offered him his arm:you are welcome to shelter for the winter
Acheron Sinis: "Tal, Franz." he smiled as he looked over to the visitors with those dark squinting eyes. Not a single face matiching a single bounty. Just as well he thought to himself.
FranzCastellan: You are a long way from home.... ::he tilted his head curiously then and motioned for Ivan::he would introduce Ivan to the Captain::
Marius Of Torv: Marius remained silent. Observant.
FranzCastellan: ::he would motion to his Magistrate to come forward then::Marius this is Captain..Rodicus
Rodicus Primarus: ::they stood in the cold, though they had heavy cloaks on, and the children were bundled warmly. ::"Yes, We have been traveling, exploring, and trading"
Marius Of Torv: Marius stepped forward to Rodicus and he extended out his hand.
Rodicus Primarus: ::he extended an arm to Franz in greeting::"My friends call me Rod"
Arin DarkShaddow: ::with the intros done, Arin would move back towards where the barges continued to ferry his men and the sailors to shore, quietly overseeing the operation::
FranzCastellan: ::he shook his arm::then I shall call you that also :he smiled warmly then::
Marius Of Torv: "Marius Canute...Well met."
Rodicus Primarus: ::he turned and shook Marius hand as well
Acheron Sinis: He watched the exchange silently.
Annique AIIure: :: she had gone to the main area and was told of where the others had moved off to by one of the guards, so she placed on her heavy cloak placing the furred lining hood on and moved to go towards the beach area::
Rodicus Primarus: "This is my En Sword, Captain Arin DarkShaddow, of the Society of Shadows. They are my House security"
Marius Of Torv: He took his hand firmly with his icey blue eyes meeting to Rod and then with a nod, let go of the man's hand. He looked oer to Arin and gave a nod of greeting. "Tal, and well met."
Rodicus Primarus: "we are thrilled to have a place to visit and winter"
Acheron Sinis: He spotted Gilda and moved to her, taking her arm and standing her beside him as he watched on.
Marius Of Torv: "This is a fine place to be, sir.."
Annique AIIure: :: once she reached the beach she glanced around seeing new arrivals then she looked over seeing Herrold so she moved in his direction as well then moved to stand at his side turning back to look to the others a soft smile offered::
Rodicus Primarus: ::he nodded::"Good. Perhaps you have a place indoors that we could go? My children are not used to this brisk wind"
Marius Of Torv: He motioned around with a move of his hand to the community..."Everyone here are hard working, honest people." he then smiled with a respectful nod.."Of course...This way. To the main Hall."
Rodicus Primarus: ::he nodded, and Followed, with his men, and family, and slaves, as they moved to the Main Hall"
Acheron Sinis: He then turned with Gilda as he could see they were all going to the main hall.
Annique AIIure: :: hearing the man she looked to Herrold and soon she turned to head back to the hall::
