Even in the middle of the night the ports were alive with busy people. Goods and items never ceased to come in, so to Robin's advantage, ships were coming in and out of port within minutes of each other. The little bird hopped down off the horse
to not make herself look as though she was higher and better than everyone else. Her blue eyes glanced around the lively docks, watching in awe as men moved heavy boxes and crates to and fro. She spotted a man standing not too far from her, his posture was tall and his arms were folded across his chest as he watched the men with a disinterested look. "Let's go men! We're scheduled to leave for Aedyn in twenty minutes! If you don't get everything on board by then, you all lose your jobs!" The hefty man let out a laugh as he saw his men scramble and rush around the docks.
Luck seemed to be on her side tonight. I just hope that luck will be with me when I arrive to Khiel. Robin led her horse over to the man. "Excuse me sir."
"Not now, I'm busy." The man didn't even bother to glance in her direction. Robin lifted a brow as she looked to him. Perhaps this would be harder than she thought.
"Are you the captain of this ship?"
"I said I'm bu..." This time the man turned his head to look at her. He stopped in mid sentence as he looked her over, eyes moving around every curve of her body. He licked his lips, grinning to her. "Why yes milady, I am the captain. How may I be of service to you?" The man took her hand, placing a rather sloppy kiss on it.
Robin cringed slightly as the man kissed her hand. After he returned her hand to her, she wiped it on her pants nonchalantly. "I need passage to Aedyn."
"Is that so?" The captain turned towards her, his arms dropping to place his hands on his hips and he continue to look her over. "Well milady, this isn't a passanger ship. There's really no place you can stay, unless you want to stay in my..."
Robin took out a small bag, opening it and holding it out towards the man. "You can have it all."
The man looked inside, seeing a hefty amount of coins within. He glanced between the bag, her, and back again to the coins. With another lick of the lips, a grin shaped his lips as he took the bag from her. Turning back towards his ship, he yelled out to his crew. "Alright men, get this horse situated! If I see any maltreatment, you all lose your jobs!" He laughed again, placing a hand on Robin's shoulder. "Well missy, I hope you like seafood and cramped spaces." Another hearty laugh escaped him.
