I jump and quickly close the chest "Yes Smighter?" looks scared half to death trying to stay calm. "Did you need something?"
"I heard rummaging and was worried someone was stealing things..." I point towards your chest. "What's that? And don't lie to me." I say.
"It's just an old memory box" I smile trying to get thru the lie without cracking. "It just holds past memories." with weapons I think to myself.
"That's where you are lying. Whenever you talk about your memories you act as if you don't like them, you shouldn't have smiled. Now tell me what's really in the box." I say, mad at you for trying to lie.
I sigh "Damn..." I sit back down and turn the dial entering a series of numbers then puts in a key and twists it so it opens. "Weapons. And cloaks." I open it fully and it's full of what I just said.
"Hm." I say, not surprised. "If you want to be an assassin you need to be better at lying." "By the way, I don't really care. As long as you don't kill me." I walk out of the room and slowly walk to my house.
I open the door to my house and walk up several staircases, and I take your hand, not wanting to lose you in case you fell behind. When we get to the top story, I remember I forgot to turn the lights on. I walk over to the wall and flick a switch/light a lantern and it shows the SkyShip I have made.
It has to be at least 200 feet, with wooden decks and metal armor on the outside. The captain's wheel is surrounded by several levers, which look confusing. There are 4 sails, two on deck, one at the head of the ship, and one by the captain's wheel.
Their are several weapon systems on board, seven ballistas (for now.), at least fifteen cannons in various places, and two cannons and two ballistas on each of the main sails.
"Yes. It takes a long time and I'm still not completely finished yet." I point to the hull of the ship, with only wooden planks keeping the two sides together.
I jump off of the ship onto the platform where you're standing. "Hope you're fine with me checking out the ship, it's a beauty and I was intrigued. I'm still mad at you for lying to me about your "job" Tess. Do that again and... I don't know, just don't do it again..."
I growl at Strom. "I needed money. Most places here don't pay well for my abilities." I look back at the ship "How much longer till ur finished Smighty?"
"Well, my men are ready for the flight. We'll be happy to help you man the ship... But not at night." I say, fiddling with a little mechanical soldier.
