Rose takes the ship from Uhm to Underport. While on the journey she stands at the bow of the ship, leaning against the head rails, taking in the long sought after fresh sea air, looking enviously to the horizon. The stoic expression on her face not wavered by the spray of the oceans mists, as the stem above the keel cuts through the oncoming waves. Seeming in a daze of remenescence, she quickly finds herself arriving at port before the journey even started. She pats the head rail once and steps off the ship climbing down into the boat as Redbeard and she herself takes the oars rowing to the small area of land, known to sea go'ers as the chute. Ducking into a cave she makes her way down into underport, as lightning from an approaching storm flashes.

Scarcly able to see, save by the ominous red light of her enchanted helm, she makes her way down the dock. Ghosts of the past enter in and out of her vision as images of a line of shackled slaves is lead by her first mate, they look back on her with shock when they realize what life they are about to be sold into, the cold stern Captain of the Umberlee Rose, turns her apathetic gaze at them, condemning them in her mind for there stupidity in letting themselves be captured. Finally, nearing the end of the scene, the present matter comes back to her, as she nears the market, the images of the past fade, as she watches her gold pouch close and her back closer. She respectfully nods to the merchants, in passing, while she makes her way to the Gates of Elysium, a well known inn she used to frequent after delivering unwanted crews from ships she had aquired. She, knowing the path all to well, posts up an advertisement for a build crew needed and gives direction on how to reach her. The notice reads written in a skilled hand and professional and in drow..

To whom it may concern,

Any interested, I'm offering a building contract consisting of two minor buildings and a granite keepwall. I'm prepaired to pay handsomely and rewardingly for those crews interested. Materials are already on site. If interested, I'll be sending a messenger daily, to review and gather up any replies. Should any that wish to wait for the messenger and meet him, he will set up a meeting. Discretion is of the utmost import. Once we've met to discuss further arrangements, I'll tell you more about what it is I need.
