**Travelling through port, normally Argali doesn't pay much attention to the comings and goings of the various sea going vessels. However, a ship flying such a distinctive livery piques her interest. As and when the opportunity presents itself, she strikes up a conversation with a dock worker and inquires as to the ship's place of origin and possible business.**

*lounging on tree branch near the hempstead port entry , a cheetahs head watches the strange symboled ship as it sails by, his paw dangling to the water surface,catching his lunch, and then shifting into a water elemental Drogo slips into the currents and follows the ship wondering what it could mean****
-
*Sailing from Vhel into Hempstead Wren sees the ship and takes little notice of the markings as he has not heard any information that would make the markings stand out, but he does look for warriors on the deck*
-
*Jennara notices the ship while on other business and takes a detour to say hello and chat a bit with anyone she recognizes.*
-
As part of her general investigations into the Dragon Stealer cult's trade relations, Darthirâe is making examinations of various boats and their shipping manifests.
If this ship's crew is purchasing anything of note, or making unusual inquiries, it would likely come to her attention. She would also speak to the dockeeper to see what flag (i.e. nation) the ship was flying under.

Benjamin uses his stealth skills to eavesdrop on the some of the crews in the various taverns and along the docks. If an opportunity presents itself, he will attempt entry of a boat by unconventional means and looks for any maps or papers or other items that seem unusual.

*While in port, Idoran listens to whatever hearsay that floats through the Scamp. His interest is piqued by others' interest in the vessel, and he soon follows suit, even offering a round of drinks to the captain and his/her posse should he run into them.*

*Snezle makes a few enquiries about the ship and crew using his shipping contacts. When he gets to someone who knows something he casually asks about the veiled lady in purple.*
-
Ferrit hails the ship. After introducing herself to the captain, she asks about the health of the King and of her old employer, The Baroness of Imjam. She then inquires whether the Council has had any word from her old friend, Councilor Tannerson. She also asks whether she can be of any assistance in the ship's current mission.

Benjamin brushes himself off after being ejected from the ship and walks off muttering to himself about being lucky he wasn't keelhauled. "Secretive bunch they are, too bad I didn't get anythin fer my trouble." With a shrug, he waves back at the ship and goes to find out if any rumors are circulating in the taverns.
-
*Tod, after seeing Ben ejected, makes his own way towards the ship with a curious look in his eyes. He casually stands near the ship as if waiting for his own and tries to listen in on conversations of people with decorative clothing, such a the pretty red head, the lady veiled in purple, and the man who stands in between them. Or even deckhands nearby that talk or whisper too loudly where Tod's hearing can pick them up.*
-
*Kyle disembarks a ship from Vehl and notices the markings of Erylin. Curious...he starts towards them when he notices Ferrit boarding one and trots to catch up.*
"Wonder what they are doing here?"
-
*seeing ferrit on the dock and moving up the gang plank Drogo rises in his elemental form and settles onto the deck from his spot in the water observing the ship, and shifts as he sees kyle trotting up* hello old friend , shal we find out whats about in erilyn these days?
* gives kyle a pat on the shoulder and moves to the ship before ferrit vanishes*

When the boat sails into their quiet neck of the woods, there is a brief flurry of activity. Dressed in their nicer clothing, Anna and Connor walk down to the dock to greet the Erylin ship and it's crew. They offer hospitality and services (guide through the local area, information on the better merchants in the town if they need to purchase supplies or perhaps just information itself) to the Knights (and who ever else is aboard).
