[b][u]Waterdeep[/b][/u] The king and queen were safe. They were roughed up a little, but were otherwise unharmed. Nolan let out a relieved sigh. Aside from his split lip, he was doing alright. Kai immediately came to back him up and made pretty quick work of the man who had punched him in the face. The cook pretty much threatened the other man at gunpoint and after hesitating for a moment he decided to flee. It seemed that everyone was familiar with Kai. The man told them about Waterdeep on the ship, and about the Kraken Skull Pirates, but Kai didn't say much about the royal family. So while the king and queen talked, he couldn't help but stare at Kai with respect in his eyes. Nolan looked over his shoulder rather nervously before he decided to simply face the door with his rifle drawn. [b]"And who are you? One of Kai's new recruits? I would appreciate the name of both my saviors."[/b] Nolan snapped out of his thoughts and it was only then when he realized that standing with his back to them was probably rude. The man turned a light shade of red before he swiveled around and bowed deeply. "Nolan Fischer, at your service, your majesty. I'm the StarDusk's pirate's cook." He nodded his head then listened to Haru talk. "Sorry to interrupt your reunion your majesty, but I agree with Haru. We best get you both to safety while we can. Kai and I will protect you." He turned to his fellow pirate. "Kai, maybe we can get them out through the backdoor? Haru can help lead them into town and we can finish up here?" He wondered if there were a safer alternative. They could always hide the king and queen somewhere inside the castle, but that sounded rather risky. The farther away they could send the king and queen, the safer they would be. "It's your call." Nolan gave his friend a nod. Whatever Kai decided to go for, he'd do. The man clearly had years and years of experience under his belt and Nolan trusted he would make the right choice.
