Airship. 

...


Stabd off.

Returning the salute he had respected his rank regardless of different nationalities so it was right to do the same in response. Getting a better look at the man, his rank Lt..captain ish equivalent ... .that was about right he hoped anyway, he was not 100% on the ranks of the Royal Armies, Navies and such of Mitterland, they had their own structures and culture. It was below Post Captain, he saluted first, that was clear at least. 

He dropped to less formal but more attentive posture and kept a hand resting on the rail, claiming the ship, at least until he handed it over. He was claiming to take command of the airship, from the authority of the country's military,  that it was all well and food but they needed paper work. “May I confirm your orders, then I will let you take command. On certain conditions.”

He paused and took time to think. “Simple terms allow those aboard to take what is their own. Respect their property and the captain of this vessel. There is also an excellent Favis brandy and others aboard that I would like to repatriate. I would also ask you to take care of her, she is a good ship.” He said and finished with a very navy request, air ship or not he felt a certain thing about respecting the ship. 

“I shall talk to my representatives here in the city, I'm sure issues can be worked out.” He said more calmly now glad to be getting rid of being responsible for tons of yellow metal that everyone wanted to die over. 

Captain Carter…yes that was one hell of a problem, he had tried to steal from a nation state, for what reason? To buy a new air ship? Maybe to start a new life somewhere with a bunch of women and wine… he would not disagree with that goal in life admittedly… He could not help but sigh at the situation and the man he thought was a friend. “Yes. He escaped via the back ramp, since closed, wounded in the arm i think. He tried to take some of this damn gold, he is armed with a pistol and I will be honest, he is a former airship captain. He knows these ships so he might try again and find other ways. You would be wise to expect the unexpected. We confronted him and he made us run after trying to assault the private of Favis army on guard who acted to prevent his theft." He finished explaining the whole tale as best he knew and had seen of it. “Damn fool tried to take bars too, they are less easy to break down easily. It takes a lot to melt a whole gold bar.” When he finished, he would hand it over, send a telegram to the old elf and he would be in the clear, he handed it over to the legal state / military responsibility.

Easy right. It was never easy.
