Chapter 16: Journey and Storm.

Edward Stark.

The next morning, Edward went and take a walk through the street again but this time he was heading to the the port.

He heard from his captain that they arrived at the port.

Walking through the throng of people he came across the port.

"Well captain, how's the situation?" Asking he boarded the ship.

"It devastating. The sea kept on boiling. Our ship can't bear the amount of burn. As you can see from the state of our ship, we need to repair some of the base that why it took us three weeks to return" the captain said as he approach him.

"Mmm, that's that. So it good now?"

"Yes"

"That good news. Let go and check the mountains of where the Valyrians is" Ed answer after a thoughtful expression. "Instead of approaching it from the sea we will try and find a way to approach it through land...and if that ain't happen well it not our fate to see the beauty of the past"

"Aye, m'lord"

"Tell the crew. Prepare to sail"

"Aye, m'lord"

***

Sailing through the sea was hard journey.

It been three days at sea when a huge storm hit causing the crew to stand on their toes and hold the ship together. When Edward join the crew to bind the sail and hold the mast skillfully navigate the storm the sailors were further motivated and do their jobs.

"Raise the sail. Raise e'm you twat!!" The captain shouted as he hold the wheel.

"M'lord, you need to stay down deck. We will hold the mast for you. Tis'beneath yah for yer status"

"Shut up and give me the wheel!" He immediately change position as he hold the wheel. "We follow the Evening Star. It may lead us to the east and that exactly where we will be going!!"

Thunder stormed the sky as sea water rage on trying to flip their ship. With the persistent of Ed and his crew they brave the raging sea.

***

The next morning came as the men and their lord finally saw the land.

"Land whole!!" A crow man shouted from the crow as he immediately climb down.

The men who were laying on the ship floor stir awake when they heard as they quickly climb to their feet albeit struggling tired from the stormed at night.

"M'lord we see land" the captain walks to Edward who join the crew and sleep on the on deck.

"Ah!" Groaning Ed open his eyes where he saw seagulls flying in group.

"Ah! Seem like we found land?"

"Aye, m'lord"

"Good. Prepare a boat I need mother earth embrace" jokingly said he stood up.

"Where are we by the way?"

"Seems like we further from our destination m'lord".

"Ah, get a shore first then we check if we really off course"

"Aye, m'lord"

***

"Can't believe we really are off course" Ed said looking around. "How far are we?"

"From the men inquiry we are in the Faros of Great Moraq" captain said.

"Ah! Aren't we adventurous?!" Hiding his surprised he turn to his captain with a smile.

"Well repair damages and buy some ration. After a week we return straight to the North. It been to long when I leave my station unattended"

"Aye, m'lord but what about the Rose company?"

"In time. I leave something for them if they have the heart of North they will return and protect their roots. But if they aren't..well that unfortunate but, what of it?" Stopping the conversation Ed walks off.

"Off we go and bring some souvenir to take back home" he raise he hand with the cheering of all his men, "hooold! I just realized. Let visit the Gishari first. The Empire that face the Valyrians on our way back. Loads the ship and host the sail. No exploration!"

All the sailors stood shock looking at the closest bup to the dock with exotic women standing in front the door. Their lord have torture them, they were only arm's reach from the women but sadly, they have to leave them.

"Aye, m'lord!!!" All the men shouted with various expression and teary eyes.

They moved everything they need and upload them. They also upload some blanks for emergency and rums and other foreign liquor.

"Umm, m'lord. If you pardoned me for being rude. Would you allows us to stay just for one night?" Under the pressure of Ed glaring the captain braves on as he waited until he bargain "half a day...no 5 hours please"

"Arg! Come on then. Have it your way but if you late by a sec I'll make you all eunuchs"

"Yes!!!!!" All the men shouted as they secretly eavesdrop.

Watching his men he chuckles as he walks back to his room and take his Valyrian sword. He started to practice to familiarize with the new sword as it too light for his taste but suddenly the sword started to get heavier and match his style. He look at the sword with a surprise eyes then smile "well ain't yah a cutie? Ahahaha" he laugh as he continues his training.
