Fresh off the Boat
“Oi, Sorn! Hey Sorn, you listening?" A little snuffle went up from behind Moriya's back. Sounded like trance powders. " Hey ****head you listening? This is a good one. How do you tell a Stranger **** from one of their men?”
The sailor's partner sounded like he was talking through a particularly sticky tonic. “Oh thass easy Vioshek. Kick his ssister in the jawahaha!”
Moriya shook their head and kept walking down the gangplank of the ship. They wobbled momentarily, not quite used to traversing land. Under normal circumstances they’d have been situated to it. But the journey from Irondale had been a hard one, even ignoring the stop in Thorn. Moriya shook their head free of the memories and checked the satchel, satisfied that it still clinked as they moved. One false stepThere was little else of value on their person, outside of a longcoat and practical tricorn.
And the mask. Had it always been like that? Ever since leaving the homeland Moriya couldn’t never been too sure. Sometimes, when she didn’t have the mask on and the bottles inside her satchel proved weak against their content, she heard them. For now the implements remained silent.
Moriya shook their head again. From Irondale to Sevrin. To Whitehollow and it’s saltshores to the Dusk, all in the span of weeks. The explorer was glad to be free of the jungle. Too many ferals had lingered within its foliage. At one point a snake the size of a horse and with eyes like gems had broken their ribs. Such had been the price to pay for the new collection. Moriya breathed and reflexively scanned the docks for trouble. The two sailors behind her had departed, lugging a box of muscles behind them. A Stranger with a twisted face was hawking some hagfish at a nearby stall. The smells drifted back to them, mixing with scents of Duskvol’s industry to produce a salty-smoke that reaked of coals and industrial waste. Nontheless, Moriya’s stomach growled. It had been too long since they’d had true food, rather than the nuts and foreign meats of the jungle. Moriya scrutinized the man with a gaze bereft of emotion, then idly touched at her satchel once again. It felt reassuring, knowing that so much knowledge was so close by. They walked at a brisque pace, passing the vendor to venture beyond, into the sprawl of Duskvol’s docks.
The vendor wasn’t alone. Leviathan hunters stalked back to their fortress-boats, some stained and scarred with a familiarity that found no sympathy in Moriya. More Strangers and Severosi and Iruvians paraded their own knacks and seafoods in front of dockers or sailors. A few of the latter had stopped by to regard an Iruvian’s salted cod. Moriya had never cared for the delicacy. A sharp cracking sound drew their attention. As they looked, Moriya saw Bluecoats bungling another Skov off into an alley. The dockers and sailors milled about, willfully oblivious to the violence. Moriya adjusted their hat and kept walking.
The North Hook Trading Company loomed in the distance, like a giant archaic canker that had forgotten about the old age around it. Moriya snuck a glance at the guards around the structure’s fence. While they would have liked to go around it, such a task was easier said than done given the scale of the old manor. Each looked like they-and their gear-had seen conflict to put the explorer to shame. They bundled up their coat and tricorn, and then picked up the pace. It would not do to be accosted by a whisperer at this moment. Not in front of such an edifice.
Ever the practical explorer, they had no time for the squalor and chaos of Crow’s foot. That left a path through Brightstone that, if Moriya was being honest, they had wanted to see. They walked on, eastward Past the warehouses and flophouses were the less established seamen made port. Past Saltford’s and the bodies that swayed and creaked from the building’s lampposts. Every so often some enterprising sailor that was fed up with his wages got the bright idea of robbing Saltfords. The latest band of ghosts-to-be may as well have been Echoes for how much attention Moriya paid them now. Then it was over the Jayan Bridge into Brightstone. Just as the visions had told them to. Once. Twice. A hundred times. For another Boathopper, the wonder of Bowmore Bridge may have held some sway. But Moriya had seen better in the jungles, beneath the old Dagger Islander soils. The bridge, like so much of the Dusk, held little but means to the Skov. They checked the bag once more after crossing into Brightstone. Under normal circumstances, Moriya would never have considered dallying in such luxury. The white of the houses hurt the eye and Silver Market held little for one who had traveled the Empire. They’d everything they needed in the satchel. But the Unity Park memorial? That warranted an exception.
Moriya stalked past silver market, scorn writ plain on what little of their face was visible. It softened a little as they cut across the park, eyeing the massive testament to Imperial victory and Skovish failure. The explorer’s grip tightened on the satchel, perhaps a bit more defensively than they would have liked.
A group of penitents were purifying themselves at the base of the monument’s dais, and Moriya briefly considered what the Church members would appear as behind the mask. They almost smiled, not in support of the faithful but out of curiosity. One of the spirit bottles in her satchel quietly burbled a few quips into Moriya’s head. It was all the reminder needed, spurring Moriya southeast and into Six Towers.
They passed old names on every street that called the district home. Some of the names had become Skovish curses. Moriya cared little for such nostalgia. Setting foot in Six Towers had lit a fire in their mind. It was enough to make them hurry, to answer the call, the visions that had plagued the Skovlander’s dreams while on the electrorails. They kept to the shadows, occasionally sneaking furtive glances at the various ghosts that sifted through the walls of Six Towers. A few looked particularly ancient, unconcerned with the explorer’s presence. On occasion they had to avoid some of the new looking ones. Drowned men. Little victims of the Unity War missing their legs. Moriya swore to themselves. All of them would have a home.
Eventually, they found it. An old rundown house. Moriya tried the front door, found it locked, then had more success with the storm cellar entrance. Once the door was closed behind them, the explorer audibly sighed, then looked around. All was as had been promised. There was a space on the basement floor for sigils, along with several shelves of books. A particularly vacant one looked like the perfect place to store them. Moriya withdrew the spirit bottles from the satchel and placed them on the shelf to the left of the ratty books. The other explorers. One from each nation. Their very own little Path of Echoes. Moriya stroked the receptacles with a lovers touch.
A few errant shouts drew their attention to the floors above. They could make out a muffled conversation. “Ah ah, Nadia. Careful I says, careful!” A loud clatter followed the admonishment. Some sort of pleasant smell wafted through the air, drawing Moriya upwards. Somewhere on the stairs up out of the Sanctum, the mask came on. The house seemed brighter through its eyes. Some of the torcholders on the walls danced with pale light. Not a single ghost was around. Moriya withdrew a heavy blade and baroque pistol from the folds their coat. As though in response, a litany of Skovish curses wafted under the basement door. Maysawell have been Akorosi for all the explorer cared.
The door led into what looked to have been converted into a dining room. One of the rooms occupants was running a hand over his pantleg. Some sort of broth had spilled on it from a heavy cast-iron pot that rested on the dining room table. Belatedly, Moriya realized it was the source of the pleasant smell.
Six individuals greeted them on the other side. Each sported a tattered prison uniform, bedecked with fetishes or the odd occult knick-knack. Some of those hurt to look at, even through the mask. All the figures were boney, wiry, and more than a little tired looking in spite of the ample accommodations. Deathlanders. Moriya smiled under the mask, then closed the door to the basement. None of them had rifles, but the one with broth on his pants had a blade that looked equal to Moriya’s own in weight, if not length.
Moriya cleared their throat, then leveled the pistol at the most Skovish looking of the Deathlanders. Their voice came out distorted through the mask, with several other voices speaking in concert or against what was being said. The words came with a natural Skovish accent, tinged with flecks of Severosian and Dagger Islander. The explorer spoke Skovish. <Who-?> They stopped. It had been awhile since they’d spoken the mother tongue. <Who are you?>
Broth-Pants (https://i2.wp.com/bloody-disgusting.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Supernatural-5x19-Hammer-of-the-gods-mark-pellegrino-16732729-1280-720.jpg?w=1280) looked at his sword, then really seemed to notice that a pistol was leveled at his torso. <Uh. Strictly speaking we’re all ex-convicts. Though really->
The pistol momentarily dipped low, then Moriya’s mind was momentarily flooded with all the possible crimes a man could be sent to the Deathlands for. <Does that bitch Thorn know you’re here?>
He spoke with an Akorsian accent. It sounded…nasally. <With her blessing. Did-> He moved forward, then stopped as Moriya leveled their blade at him. <Did you hear it? The call?>
Their grip on the pistol faltered, struck dumb as they were by such a revelation. The Spirits below burbled out in agreement. One of the Deathlanders twitched in time with what was said, and Moriya lowered their pistol just a little bit more. It’d not do to upset the collection. <I-Maybe. I might have.>
The man sighed, <”We did too. It promised us hot food and a place to sleep without the stars. Seemed better work than> out there.” He punctuated the Skovish with a jab of his thumb, towards the Lost District. Moriya tried to contain her anger. The Lost District was common associated with the Silver Nails. “What did it promise you, friend?”
<”Not your friend.”>
<Comrade then. Look-> The man dropped his hands and motioned for the others to do the same. “We’ve faced down worse than a pistol half full with powder. Fact of it is, we’re here to work. Figure most anything could be better than working the Deathlands or the Mire. Leastways here whatever it is offers a hot meal,” The man’s fingers went up to clutch at a mask that wasn’t there, while his other spastically twitched. It was a common tell, marking out those who had extensive experience in the wastes beyond the barriers. And that a ghost had once claimed the man’s body.
<I->
“Look, why don’t you put the pistol down, we can share some food, break some eel pie, carve up some goat and wait for the others, eh? Maybe you can tell us how you and Lady Thorn came to be acquaintances. How’s that sound? ”
Moriya looked at each of the Deathlanders in turn, unused to the kindness in their eyes. The broth smelled good, like old memories and fine Vodkas. There was something about it that sent her senses on edge in ways she was not used to. Goat meat did sound good…
<Standard job for standard pay. Helped her kill an Inspector that’d found out about her plan for a pard->
The man cut them off, which wasn’t what surprised the explorer. Treat someone like a savage, expose them to repeated ghost possession and what else would they be? Instead it was the friendliness of his tone that shook her. “Holy ****. Your Moriya.”
They stood struck dumb for a moment. The pistol went a bit lower. This time with the blade came down all the way with it. “Could be I’m Ritcher.”
“Look uh no offence…”
They relented, dropped the pistol so that it pointed at the floor, then answered <Moriya->
All the Deathlander faces brightened a little more. <”Moriya.> I’ve met Ana Richter and I gotta say, your way prettier than she ever will be.” Moriya’s face creased into an irritated frown behind their mask. They tucked the pistol and blade back into their coat.
<You know me. Who are you? Besides murdering rapists.>
The man’s face went mournful, and for the first time since meeting the group he looked like a true Deathlander. “No rapists here Moriya. I’m Cornel. Cornel Casslyn.”
Behind their mask, Moriya’s eyebrows rose in exclamation. Her face remained neutral. <Cornel Casslyn. The Bowmore Bomber?>
Cornel sketched a mockingly low bow. “The very same.“ His haunted look briefly morphed into a wolf-like grin, then settled into the same smile as before. Then he jolted rigid with energy, as though suddenly remembering something. “Right. We’ve work to do but it’s no skin off our backs to get it done. Be nice to work with a stove again, even if it is a ****ty little tinderbox. Still.” Cornel smiled to himself “You just sit here, “ He indicated a seat at one end of the table. “, and we’ll get you a proper meal. Nadia here,“ He jabbed a thumb at a woman who was less angular than the other Deathlanders, “used to be a cook. ” That seemed to be all the Deathlanders needed to hear. They filed out in good order to another door. Had it been there the whole time?
Moriya looked around, trying to see if there were any other famous personages underneath the dirt and gaunt faces. Finding none she could recognize, she turned to Cornel. <Others?!>
