As sion as the sun rises, Joscelin quit his room to see the rising Sun, looking for everyone.

In case things go sour because of yesterday's events, he makes sure to have my 2 daggers with him.

Edward wakes predawn and returns to the deck to commune with the sky, air and sea and experience the sun rising over Angland. Once it is up, he closes his eyes and listens to the sounds around him, feels the heat of the sun warm him, and the sea breeze brush his skin. He misses the smell of growing things, but the serenity of the sea is special in its own way. After time spent nurturing his soul, he remembers to nurture his body as well. He uncurls from his lotus like position and heads for the dining room for breakfast.

William is quite keen to know what the thief has to say about the captain, as he still maintains that the captain's behavior is a bit strange.

'If he will not tell us who the message is for, are we supposed to go around Caerton asking people, 'excuse me, is this message for you? until we find the right person?'

Muttering this and similar passive aggressive things to himself, he approaches Joscelin and asks what transpired the previous evening.

In other matters - he has made some overtures to Alrone and Edward, and said "Listen, gents: there's always work around the nobility. It's just that sometimes, you have to stay out of sight of them. If you're up for it, I'll put it a word with the March Lieutenant when we get to Caerton. There's probably some money to be made in hanging about, making sure the escort party is not being followed, or trying to find traitors, that sort of thing. If you're keen, that is.' .

Alrone replies to william "yeah honestly, I don't mind what we do. I am up for anything as long as we get to see the world"
I will continue waiting in the cafe place.

An hour passes and you don't see Lianai. As you wait it comes to your mind that the only time you ever saw her was here, in the dining room, for the brief time you spoke and ate together. But as you think of her you swear you can hear her voice, smell her warm heady fragrance, and see her smiling face as she looks over her shoulder at you and says, "Come and see me. Twin Moon tavern." So real is the memory that you blink, shake your head, and crane your head around to see if she's standing in the doorway but she is not there.

It is quiet in the very early morning gray light just as the dawning sun sets the wave crests to glittering. The half-orc's belly growls just as a silvery light voice says to him, "This has always been my favorite time of day Edward." You look over and see little dangling legs kicking lazily in the breeze. Looking up you see a small girl-child in a short white dress that comes to mid thigh sitting just above and to the side of you. Her pink little bow lips are smiling as she gazes at you, her sky blue eyes twinkling in her golden haired fine featured face. Her bones are delicate and her limbs longs and agile. There is something odd about her but you can't place quite what it is. It doesn't matter to you as hers is the friendliest little face you've ever seen. She winks and looks out to sea again. As you follow her gaze she says, "Fresh air and a new day bid fair to make a stomach growl don't you think?" She giggles and you look to her again but she is gone as though she'd never been there.

Seeing that nobody's on the deck, Joscelin goes to the dining room to see if his comrades are there. As they are, he orders a tea and some cookies and go sit with them.

If the captain or the mysterious woman aren't around, he says with a low voice to his new friends : "Look mates, I don't exactly know what is going on here, but I've been... hum.... "informed" about a few things and I REALLY think we should accept the captain's offer without asking too much questions."

Joscelin pause for a few seconds and continue : "I would like to live a long and happy life but I have a really bad feeling about this... Let's accomplish this easy job quickly and leave the town as soon as possible."

Well, I suppose at some point he has to tell us who we are delivering it to, doesn't he? So I will go along with it and make my mind up then.

But tell us, what did you discover last night>?

(SAYS WILLIAM).

Edward blinks and then rubs his eyes. He is startled by the disappearance, but he is strangely not disturbed by it. The girl, or creature, or whatever, didn't seem harmful. In fact, its with a glad heart and soaring spirits that he makes his way to the dining hall.

"William, I'll tell you, but you need to promise me that will stay between us six".

Joscelin stare straight in the eyes of William. His face look worried.

"A woman is trying hard to convince the captain to make us accept this errand. She looks mysterious, dangerous. The kind of woman that gives you goose bumps..."
