So, tell me this?<br/><br/>Why does a renowned gangster want a group of strangers he had barely met to transport a mere two crates of cargo across the Atlantic in exchange for considerable expense and danger in getting them free of their bondage in Dublin?<br/><br/>Answer.<br/><br/>Because there’s something not quite normal about those two crates of cargo.<br/><br/>And that caused an issue.<br/><br/>The options the crew had were limited when it came to escaping Dublin. What else could they do but this? But that didn’t mean it was beneficial to either party for them to go into this blind.<br/><br/><strong>“From beyond the gates of the night the spirits do call to me, and they scream of change and fury. They question the very nature of the cargo and laugh at the torments it may bring to us mere mortals. They delight in the pitfalls that may befall us, and the darkness that may rise to envelop us.<br/><br/>It would be presumptuous for us to ask the nature of the cargo, for us to delve into the specifics. But I heed the spirits call. And so I enquire if we were to be assailed by the knights of the air, the police forces that patrol those empty skies, would the cargo be of concern? Should we hide it away, shroud it in the cape of deceit or is it safe to leave open and proud? Likewise, would the rogues of the air, the pirates of yesteryear with the technology of today have a specific interest in this? Would their wrath fall upon us in great measure because of this cargo? In short, if I may, is this destined cargo the subject of interest by multiple parties who are not agreeable to your… or our… cause?<br/><br/>Do not think of this as a refusal or an insult. However, our preparations and precautions for the twisted lines of fate that may appear before us will change depending on the risk we take. And if we are unprepared for anything that tries to tear our fate from us it is less likely that this blessed cargo will reach Boston.”</strong><br/><br/>Another sip, eyes still not falling upon their new benefactor<br/>
