Corin had seen the way Phia and Bastion interacted – there was a tenderness to it. It suggested a potential history, or a budding bond between people suffering similar consequences. Even more so than the others in their slowly forming party. Another observation to be silently tucked away for now. The man fully locked in on Minerva.

[color=#6C2DC7]”I don’t think I would count these as simple trinkets. Sounds like it was tied to that giant artifact that blew up on the ship. No, this has some kinda plan to it. Almost like someone or something…or both…want us to take care of these crystals or let them guide us to something bigger.”[/color] Corin mused, his strategic mind already trying to pry away possible routes, plans, ideas, or reasons for such a means of gathering such a peculiar crew.

[color=#6C2DC7]”If they don’t react to anything or show off any clear goal, and if we’re eventually going to be a team anyway…”[/color] Corin sipped the ale for the first time since he sat down, raising his brows in satisfaction. This was fine ale. [color=#6C2DC7]”We could always try and make a bit of a living for ourselves until something shows up. Take up some odd jobs and quests and the like until we discover something we could call a lead.”[/color]

He hadn’t seen much of their interaction with the pirate gang from earlier, so he was practically clueless on their invitation to see Prince Dane. But he did remember one particular end to the conversation. [color=#6C2DC7]”Ah but those pirates you were scufflin’ with. They said something about not leaving the city limits? Seems like a hard rule to follow if you’re trying to make some honest gold.”[/color] Corin took another slow sip before clacking his mug down onto the table.

[color=#6C2DC7]”Alright you motley few. Where exactly is the compass of our journey pointing? Do we stay in pirate town or do we go off and risk it all? Frankly, I think we’re in too deep to steer away now so I say we embrace this new destiny of ours.”[/color]
