four story tower of motley colored stones stands |
vigil over the area. Two balconies and a top, |
housing crossbow and longbow wielding roughnecks. |
You know these to be Taskers. You’re heading |
towards The Landlocked Lady? Easy to see. On the |
eastern side of this plaza, there is a very |
beautiful, two story complex, that comparably |
seems ostentatious against the buildings |
immediately to the right and left of it which look |
to be in serious disrepair and rather rundown and |
colorless. Just bland woods, gray and brown. Here |
you can see the second story above the main archway, |
a curved top arch, there is a false bow of a |
ship that is emerging outward. This beautifully |
carved mermaid in the front that is clutching the |
piercing front of the ship. There it rests with a |
sign dangling from it, saying The Landlocked Lady. |
MARISHA: I totally get the name of the place now. |
SAM: It’s a consistent brand. |
MARISHA: It’s very clever. |
LIAM: In Zadash, it would look like shit, but here |
it’s the belle of the ball. |
MATT: Comparably, yes. |
MARISHA: It seems that they don’t have a strong |
housing code. They can get away with these more |
unique builds. It’s very fascinating. |
SAM: Sure, it’s really interesting architecture. |
MATT: It’s like Shanghai, China; everything looks |
different. |
ASHLY: How far away are the Taskers? Did we just |
pass by them? |
MATT: You’re skirting around the outside of the |
main Tasker tower. They’re scattered around, and |
as you guys are walking around, you see most of |
the people that live in the city are in absolute |
squalor and are here out of necessity, are here |
because they came seeking some sort of fortune and |
failed, or they’ve come to indulge in vices that |
have slowly crushed them. The other half of the |
populace are usually armored to some extent, |
whether it be patchwork hides, chain, leathers. |
Almost everyone here is armed, even on a scale of |
poverty there seems to be a general sense of |
needing protection amongst the chaos. Some folks |
look like they’re trying not to be seen, many |
parade their thickened arms. You see one female, |
privateer looking individual, that comes through |
the streets and spits on somebody who’s huddled by |
one of the stumps. Growls at them before |
continuing to walk on. It’s a very unique and |
curious motley group of people that call this |
place home. |
ASHLY: If I talk to them will I be heard? |
MATT: If you talk to–? |
SAM: Us. |
ASHLY: If I talk to the crew? |
MATT: No one’s close enough to you, you think, if |
you’re quiet enough. |
ASHLY: I point out the Tasker tower behind us and |
I say: Those are the Taskers. Those are probably |
the only other people in this shithole that might |
be of use. |
SAM: Of use? They’re good guys? |
