Wind in the Sails - One-Shot
A mysterious woman, El, has talked her way into a "secret" underground tavern filled with pirates, smugglers, corruption, pleasure, and everything else that is tolerated but not keen to be visible on the pristine surface of Inner Varu. And it's not really an issue. These people like it that way. There is a truce between them and the law above that has matured for centuries. What are appearances, if not important?
Only Tam is interested when she asks for passage to west Oliria, about fifteen nautical days across the ocean. The Erid Straits are only for the fools and the brave, and Tam is nothing if not both.
However, before they can depart - there is the little matter of getting his ship back and a crew willing to sail with him. And that's where we begin.

El the Maze Hunter is a mysterious woman who refuses to talk about her past. She is dressed in sangoran leathers, but is headed for the olirian coast.
