It's almost a week of travel form the Rock to Rickety's Squibs, and the ship is tossed about by a storm, most of the way, which meant little chance to pursue any merchant ships of the like. The old man of the port, Rickety Hake himself, comes out to greet Martel as he pulls in. "Well, well... I haven't seen this beauty for a few years," he says with a laugh. "Good to see her in better hands. What would you like done to her?" he asks, after thoroughly appraising the ship from stem to stern.
