* The first evening on sea, Belial, Draken, both captains and the officers of the regiments on the ships have gathered in the captains-cabin to have their meal. Before they start, all bow their head and mumble a prayer to both gods. Belial stands up from his seat and walks to the window of the cabin. He opens it and pours some wine, followed by some bread out of the window, a sacrifice for Mythar, god of the oceans. As Belial turns back to the table, a knock on the door sounds through the cabin. All turn their head towards the door, wondering who it could be.*
" Enter" *says Belial*
* A man with darkgreen cloak enters the cabin, his face covered in darkness by the cape he's wearing. Inconspicious, Draken brings his hand towards the dagger on his left-hip.*
" I suggest you hold the dagger sheathed, lord Draken-Korin" * says a wellknown voice. The man brings his cape backwards revealing his face.*
* A smile appears on Belial's face*
" Ah....my lord Sentii, would you like to join us at our meal?"
" With pleasure, my king. I wasn't planning to eat the same meal the normal crew gets" * answers the head of the Serpii-family*
" Take a seat, my lord. And tell me..."
" How I'd get on the ship? Quite easy acctualy, I..."
* Belial holds up his hand to interrupt Sentii's words*
" We are all aware of the slyness and sneaky manners of the Serpii...."
* Sentii nods with a smile*
" I'll take that as a compliment."
* Belial smiles back and nods in acknowledge*
" ...but the question is why did you get on the ship and most of all...what are you up too?"
* Sentii takes a bite of a drumstick and grins*
" Not only the Vestrits are an adventurous family, you know."
* Belial smiles*
" Well then... I hope you'll enjoy your journey. Let's eat now."

*covered by the night the two Krondorian battleships, the cruiser and one of the cutters slowly sail towards the Gurai-harbor. By order of lord Draken-Korin, who want to settle an absolute Krondorian rulership over the ocean, the ships had been stuffed full of food and water and been given one order. Find the harbor of the Gurai and destroy it, together with their ships. Insulted by the threat towards his ships, Draken had sended message to Urgor where they told him that it had to be Gurai-ships who possibly had their harbor in the far south. With that in mind the preparations where made and even black sails were made to use during the night. With all lights out and black sails the ships softly moved towards the Gurai-harbor. At the bow of The Bear, one of the battleships, the captain stood with a ruthless smile on his face. Without turning around he broke the silence of the nigth with his order*
"Ssussun mina phor nesstren!" [ light them up, guys!]
* On both the battleships the stone-projectiles, surrounded by olied leather, flamed up and were launched towards the harbor. With deafening sound one of them landed on one of the docks. Soon the flames revealed the silhouettes of the Gurai-ships laying next to it. On The Dragon, The Lion and the cruiser The Eagle, the captains smiled either as their ships moved closer and launched their own projectiles towards the ships. Meanwhile, on the battleships, they were busy reloading and on the bow of the cruisers and cutters stood several Valheru with burning hands to take care of any magical threats coming from the harbor.*
