-Tell me, why have you lost your home ? You are not a criminal I hope ?
The man shook his head but his tone made clear that it was a shameful story.
-No, my lord, I.. Well I was working on a ship you see the "Diane" it was called, we travelled from Faraway to the coasts of Smaug, for the Legion who is warrying there, we brought them arrows, weapons, armours, food, alcohol, magical ingredients everything that soldiers needed. But the voyage was long, several months long. One day after such travel I learned that the authorities of the city decided to destroy our home to build a new plaza, they paid for compensation, and they paid well. So I told that we will rent a home and I will invest the money in a ship, it was not enough, I had to borrow money too, I invested it with some other sailors, that decided that we would have our own ship, it was like a dream. We called it the "Enterprise" our captain was a good man, called Disastrus, we decided to bring spice from the dune people living in the east of the southern seas. We managed to do a voyage, but after a second one a storm hit us and the Enterprise was lost, only five men managed to survive. I had no more ships, and a lot of debts, from not very honest people. They said that if I would not be able to pay my family and me would be killed. I decided to flee the city, I could not do anything against them.
So he fled from debts, and from bandits. Well at least he was honest enough to admit it. You asked him.
-Tell me, Popeye the Sailor, have you sailed on rivers and not only on the sea ?
-Never my lord, never, I know some things about shipbuilding and sailing tough, and river boats are different from ships that sail on the high sea. To sail on the river you have to know it, and to know where there is sandbanks or hidden rocks. It is a difficult job and quite different than sailing on the seas. Even if we love to joke about those who sail on rivers I have to admit that it has it's particularities.
You nodded, ready to tell an answer.
