Jillian says nothing of the map as she had been the one to first catch it falling out of the book before the spirit of Babylon appeared. The talk of the amulets had her interest though, "I don't believe Hypnos would have let us take objects that would be our folly. Consider how useful both the intact and enchanted broken coins have been. Good versus evil is perhaps more likely," she said though she personally thought good and evil to be far too abstract. Maybe in dreams things were more black and white, she pondered. "Perhaps it is just the opposite and the necklaces were made to ward off whatever those lights were."
She leaned against the wall, waiting for the captain or crew to answer.

The captain shouts that it is all clear on deck, and that they will be entering the port of Oxhuan in the next few hours.

Matilda is still asleep, unaware of what is going on around her about the necklaces she currently had. She hears the captain shout that it is all clear on deck but doesn't wake up. She still feels tired as she carries on sleeping below deck. Occasionally moving in her sleep.

Jillian sits, looking curious. She had not slept since she had arrived in this world and had yet to feel tired. In her mind sleeping in a dream could not be possible but there was the two woman seeming to manage it somehow. Her scientific mind could not help but wonder, what happened if they dreamed here.

Mattie leaned between Terra and Jillian for most of the time dosing in and out. She couldn't sleep yet she couldn't stay awake at times. Boredom rather than her being actually tired. Her brain wasn't working right and she was still sore.
She jolted a bit and bumped into Jillian looking apologetic. "Sorry." she whispered as she heard the captain. "Is this where we are getting off?" she wondered.

Surprised at the bump, Jillian smiled. Anyone else and she would have felt uncomfortable, but with Mattie she didn't mind. "It is indeed.. from there it is over some hills and then we are at Bethmoora." she said, her tone low and almost a whisper. For some reason their destination suddenly felt more daunting. "Have we got everyone?"

Lost in deep thought on what to do in the situation, he finds himself going around in circles playing with the same thoughts. Looking up and around for something to make him feel at ease with his surroundings and for something that reminds him of home, of where he feels secure, he sees the body that Matilda is in sleeping. How can she be sleeping at a time like this, with all thats going on? Could this place be effecting her? Out of concern he goes over to where she is asleep and sits on a stool adjacent to her. Guarding her, tho he wouldn't know what to do if anything would happen, but it eases his fear if nothing else.
"I suppose we could manifest or rather, attempt to manifest another amulet. " he says to the group. "Should one of us attempt such a thing?" He waits with baited breath.
Turning to the captain he asks if he, the captain, has ever seen such amulets before?

The captain says no, but he'll barter wine for one of them. They sure are pretty.

Matilda starts to stir a little bit more whilst she's asleep, moving around and hitting anyone that would be next to her yet doesn't wake up despite the moving around. She carries on sleeping below the deck.

"I see no reason not to manifest more of the amulets, but feel we should figure out what they are meant to do first. Have you put one on yet?" Jillian asked, giving Jeremy her full attention while half leaning against Mattie.

OOC: At the moment I am querying for someone to replace mattie adamson. Please assume the character is in the background, isn't reacting to anything and any plot items she had have been handed off to Jeremy for study.

Caleb had sat next to Matilda, she had hit him a few times and he softly chuckled. Patted he on the head and waited. He still wasn't sure what to do so he would wait and watch.

Matilda slowly starts to wake up, clearly embarrassed at falling asleep when she did. She looks around the deck as she wakes up "erm I'm really sorry. I don't know what came over me. I just became tired and well I thought being asleep would be a better use of my time"

Turning to Jillian whilst getting lightly smacked by Matilda in her sleep " I dont have access to an amulet im afraid. Mattie gave me some coins but no amulets. Id be willing to some degree to try one. Tho i may need someone nearby just incase it send me over like it did our fellow passenger."
As Matilda began to stir, Jeremy responded " Dont worry Matilda, This place will do weird things to us all"
Looking over Matildas wakening form he eyes the figure that Caleb is currently residing in. "What about you sir? How are you holding up?"

Matilda smiles a little bit but is still clearly embarrassed at falling asleep. "Normally I don't sleep that well. But that was possibly the best sleep I've had in a while. Did I miss anything?"
She turns to Caleb "I'm really sorry if I hit you whilst I was asleep and don't tell Arthur" she says quietly.

Matilda smiles at Caleb when he says he won't tell Arthur "Thanks for that. I really appreciate it" she looks at Jeremy and smiles and thinks that introducing them to each other would be a good idea.
"Caleb, this is Jeremy. He's also from Arkham. Jeremy this is Caleb, we know each other through my other half" she says.

"Pleasure to meet you sir! Judging by your accent I would say your from Ireland. I wouldn't like to guess where from as I have only been to County Kerry in my time. Do you still live there? As we all seem to be from all walks of life and areas of the world I wouldnt want to presume!" He says, with genuine curiosity flowing throughout his question.
Hearing the sounds of the boat coming into dock, Jeremy looks around the group of fellow dreamers. "Well whats the plan then?" He says smiling.

Terra jolts awake as the docking of the vessel pulls him from his sleep. It seems after Mattie had drug him across the deck below to huddle with the rest of the group, he had leaned against a barrel and fallen into a comfortable deep sleep. He hadn't even realized he had been tired until the hushed tones of the group chatting around him had seemed to lull him into the sleep he currently found himself rubbing from his dark eyes.
He blinks, and looks around taking note of the different spots that everyone seems to be in. Glad to see that Jeremy was fully back with the group once more. Terra stands, stretching his muscles, pure relief washing over his features as his body responds to the stretching.
He shrugs in response to Jeremy's question, as he makes his way past him and up to the top deck, talking over his shoulder as he does.
"I say, first we take leave of this vessel, find some food, and start taking survey of the town."
Once back at the top deck, Terra makes his way to the captain who is at the helm as the ship finishes docking.
"Captain? Thank you, for the hospitality of allowing us passage on your cargo ship. I hope your future travels find you safe. If we shall meet again in this realm, I hope our group can show you the same kind of hospitality you and your crew have given us."
Terra looks about the land sprawled out in front of him, waiting for the rest of the group to come above before he takes his leave. All the while still talking with the captain.
"I am sure as the captain, you have listened to the conversations and whispers of our group since we took board with you. As such, I think it safe to assume that you have most likely worked through most of our story, and figured out how we came to be here, and where we plan to go. With that in mind, if you ever find yourself in need of help, I hope you will find a way to send word to us, so that we may repay you for the kindness you have shown us. Gods speed, and safe sails Captain."

Jillian had nodded at Jeremy over his remark about the necklaces and then remained quiet while others enjoyed their introductions. She gave Kiami/Terra a slightly puzzled look when they woke up, she could not remember having been hungry since she was here.
She smiled as they thanked the captain though, too nervous to do so herself. Her focus was on the sights ahead. They would see this city and then hopefully cross the hills to finally find Bethmoora.

Alicia struggles a bit to wake up from her nap but manages to get out of the Hammock intact and actually looking a little more refreshed. She yawns, talking and stretching as she does so. "We're going out into the desert, we may need to find a Guide in Oxuhahn to help us cross the desert. Did anyone figure out what those amulets do yet?" She nods to the captain, "Thank you for another enjoyable trip, The bird of the River is almost my home away form home." She jokes, but she is sincere that she has enjoyed her rides on the vessel. "There are many things in Oxuhahn, loads of merchants, fortune tellers, animals for travel." OXUHAHN -> hogwartsbynight.boards.net/thread/1373/oxuhahn
