Thread: Dianna's Quest into the Unknown (AmySorin x Reydan)

Tis how ye heard it, lass. Now get lost, I get work to do the man said, paying no heed to the paladins anger and to the stares she was giving him. Orders were orders and there was no way hed let the girl inside the ship that easily. Hed take her other places without much of a question, but not onboard. As Dianna moved away from the other potential passengers, they didnt seem to pay much attention to her. Most people looking to get into that boat were men and they didnt seem to bother with the fact that there would be no woman onboard. Perhaps it would be correct to say that most of them actually agreed with the position taken by the sailor. It was not an official ship, so they had the right to take inside whoever they deemed fit and even fresh water sailors knew that women aboard was a sign of bad luck. The world was certainly not a kind place for young girls, even if they happened to be unknown paladin of the Order of Truth. Of all the option the blonde girl couldve taken, perhaps the one she chose was the craziest. The only crate with enough space left for her to fit inside was a 2 meters tall, 2 meters wide, 2 meters long wooden crate, still unsealed by the boarding party. The available space inside was rather small, as the place was filled with iron ore. That was most likely going to be used to fabricate weapons and armors for some provinces men at arms. Melakar was the only reliable place in the who Empire where that sort of material could be found so easily and with such quality. The girl stood hidden inside the container for a while, with nothing of interest happening outside. At some point, however, she heard some shouts coming from the outside You four, quit slacking! You still have to lock and move these boxes instead before we are ready to set sail, you scurvy dogs a voice shouted. It was loud and imposing Quit looking at me and go do your jobs or I will make sure you get tied to the mast when we finally set sails again! Aye, aye, Capn! four people shouted in unison after the first voice was gone. Soon after, several steps could be heard around the crate Dianna had chosen as her hideout. Without paying any attention to the regularity of the contents inside their cargo, the sailors closed the wooden crate and nailed the side through which the paladin had entered it. Left in almost complete darkness, save for a few small holes in the wood, the blonde felt when the sailors, with quite some effort, pulled the cargo up and loaded it into the lower parts of the ship. Once they had loaded the cargo into the ship, the sailors walked away from it and made their way to the deck. That left Dianna alone and locked inside the wooden crate filled with iron. Now that the crate had been moved, she was in complete darkness, unable to see an inch ahead of her. The small holes in the wood were enough for some hours of breathing, but the girl would eventually run out of oxygen. All in all, she seemed to be locked inside a dark wooden cage with not much time to live. However, at the very least, she knew her plan had succeeded, as the vessel started to move soon after she was put in that place.
