*Before…
Nicole gets one too but it’s a massive thing called an arbalest.
I look at her. “Are we expecting a dragon?”
She shakes her head. “No but a ship or ships perhaps.”
It seems like a lot until she and Taylor are talking and I get the idea.
Nicole doesn’t fire; she uses her Squire’sknight to pull the bow back to reload in moments if need be and with Taylor firing it takes on a whole other significance.
Jessa’s the easiest with mostly getting a sharpening of some of her things as well as a travel quiver pack like Taylor she just gets a lot of extra arrowheads.
Then we’re out and headed to meet up with the twelve squad of soldiers assigned to Nicole and again I’m a little awed at her getting the responsibility and Lady Marybeth is meeting us with her apprentices and a healer’s wagon.
Then we do a final check before we head to the Iron Rhino’s docks and we get loaded to go which takes hours and I actually help and not just let the porters or the troops do it.
It’s late or rather really early in the morning when we pull out with the iron rhino on the first run out west of the day here.
I should be tired and exhausted but this is the best that I have felt all week after all the things going on in my head and I’m standing leaning on the doorway of our car looking out as we’re passing through the city and building up speed more and more.
