While the captain was answering her question, Tyora’s eyes swept the deck looking for the people she knew.  It was hard to miss the dwarf.  The large pack she was carrying was hard to miss.  And she was walking toward her.<span style="color: green">“Half an hour?  I hope we have that long.  I have to go prepare something, and make sure my friends are ready.  Thanks captain.” </span>She said to the man before looking at the pirate woman who approached.  Some of the stories she had heard made her wish she had been there during the fight to capture her.  It would have been fun to test her bow against the pirates.<br/><br/>Not saying anything to the woman, letting the captain dfeal with her, Tyora walked over to intercept urd.  Looking at the pack she couldn’t help but get a little mad at what she had likely found important enough to pack.  It looked too heavy to float.<span style="color: green">“Urd, what the hell…”</span>Tyora never got to finish the question as the dwarf.  She just looked dumbfounded as the short woman dumped the heavy pack, and it was very heavy by the sound it made when hitting the deck.  That was until the woman ran off.<span style="color: green">“What the fuck?!”</span><br/><br/>After a moment she growled and knelt down to pull the top of the pack off.  It had better be something worth saving to pack a heavy pack.  As soon as it was open she just stared at it completely dumbfounded.<span style="color: green">“BOOKS!  SHE PACKED BOOKS FOR ABANDONING SHIP?!”</span>She half yelled before shaking her head and just leaving the pack sit.  She was paid to protect Urd, not her library that would probably sink like a rock when it was all together.  She had no time if she as to get her own makeshift raft ready.<br/><br/>Just as the elf was pulling an intact barrel from the supplies pushed onto deck she noticed eyes on her.  The two girls, Anaise and Gwen, were on deck.  That was good, she didn’t need to go hunt them down and carry them up on deck.  Additionally she noticed how they were roping their barrels together.  That was a good idea.  She needed some rope.  Of course, as she watched she didn’t miss the, at least what appeared to her to be a not so hopeful look.  It made her force a hopefully comforting smile on her face.  Trying to silently tell the pair that everything would be alright.  Even if she wasn’t sure herself.<br/><br/>As fast as she could she went around to grab some rope for her own raft.  After stuffing her pack and the arrows from her quiver inside the barrel and sealing it, she took a hammer and nail to pin a length of rope to the side of a barrel.  The other end of the about 8 foot length she tied a loop and sized it for her wrist.  Just in case.  She didn’t want to fall from the barrel and lose it all.  It looked like Urd was actually getting her own raft much better set up.  Tyora, after getting her own set up rolled it into a position to be ready to dump off the side when needed.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
