Aboard the Rum Cask

[Chloriosus]

Kastron facepalmed. With Shamus hand. For Shamus was so afraid upon seeing the double ghost that he ran down the stairs, arms flailing. “Run up deck!”, Kastron advised and ran up.

[wingfeather]

Eldor followed, ''what was that all about,'' he asked.

[Chloriosus]

Kastron rubbed his face. “He smacked me because you ran into him. He thought you was dead you know.” Kastron teeth started chattering. “I need a blanket.”, he muttered

[wingfeather]

''Good maybe I can gain some respect abroad this ship,'' he said standing taller, glancing at Kastron he wrapped his coat more tightly around himself, ''then you should get one.''

[Chloriosus]

Kastron looked below deck, where the rest of the people down there were brawling. “I’ll pass.”, he said, hugging himself

[wingfeather]

Eldor nodded, ''I see your maning up,'' he said solemnly.

[Chloriosus]

Kastron glared up at Eldor when the ship docked. The way they did this was simple: a crew hand threw a soaked line, and it froze on impact to the ice, anchoring them securely. “Guess we’re here.”, Kastron stated.

[wingfeather]

''Guess so,'' he said, ''how are we supposed to get ashore? Surely we're not expected to get across the rope like an elf of Lorien.''

[Chloriosus]

Kastron creased his eyebrows and looked at Eldor. “I have no idea what that is but if it means balancing across then yes, that is the plan. Youd be surprised at how skillful aunt is at this feat.

[wingfeather]

Eldor sighed, ''that's exactly what it means. I never heard of such ludacracy, your aunt can't do that!''

[Chloriosus]

Kastron let go of himself and crossed his arms. “Yes she can. She can do it even better than me father, and that’s saying much, seeing he escaped an island of aristocrats by those means. I know it seems very unlikely, but it’s true.”

[wingfeather]

Eldor looked at him, ''an island of aristocrats, seriously. Boy, I knew you had some wild ideas but this one takes them all.''

[Chloriosus]

Kastron looked at Eldor annoyedly this time. “What do you think an island is? Something that floats around? No! Therefore, mainland could also be considered an island, and there is ONE, or as a fact, several countries that are island countries. Long tail, Shamus, my father, and a mate named Dilly got captured once for law breaking of some sort, thievery, I believe it was, and they were supposed to get their necks snapped. Somehow Dilly managed to steal a rope, Shamus through it out a window, and my father walked out of the place, got the rest of the crew, including aunt, and they stormed the jail along with some other crews. Unfortunately they forgot me on board that time… I was about three, and aunt always put me to sleep in her pot. Well, that day she was in such a rush she put the stone lid on the pot I was in, and I got left behind. You don’t believe me, ask anyone on here. Just don’t ask Redfin, he hasn’t been here much longer than you. That escape was also how Shamus met Weedsworth, so that was the one down side to it all.”

[wingfeather]

Eldor yawned, ''that was not what I asked, but forget it. Now when do we get to go on land?''

[Chloriosus]

Shamus approached both of them. “You can go now, and you can go later. There’s two ways to get across. One, you walk over like a respectable man, two, we already know two.”, he said, glancing at Kastron, who looked down a little bit hotly. “Are you quite sure he’s dead Kass? He’s dead now is he?”, Shamus was rather annoyed. He had made a compete fool of himself by fussing how Eldor was a double ghost to Aunt Pessilys, and she had whacked his head with a thimble and told him how obviously Eldor was NOT dead, and if he were it would be a good luck charm since they hadn’t run into sharks.
