The assault on Salty Pier

[Nephrite]

"What in the world's gotten into you?" Moore cries out while he's spun around. "You're normally not this... jovial!"

[Anastasia]

"Sorry," Jetina puts you down gently, blushing. "That was just so nice of you for a luxury. I didn't think you'd get it because we can do without it, really."

[Nephrite]

Moore smiles. "It's a luxury, but it's one I think we can make use of. Come on." He gestures as he continues along!

[Anastasia]

Ahead is something new. A comfortable looking house of rustic stone stands ahead, an old farmhouse you swear wasn't here before. It's pleasant, smoke rising from the chimney and the promise of warmth and food within.

[Nephrite]

Moore opens his mouth to say something, then just flies up to knock on the door! Though he's also expecting the door to just open...

[Anastasia]

Gimme Perception in that case.

[Nephrite]

Take 10 for 66!

[Anastasia]

You can hear a chime within, gentle and beautiful. Like the tinkling of bells, really.

[Nephrite]

Moore glances over at Xandra to see if it looks like she noticed anything.

[Anastasia]

Xandra is looking at you and nods slightly, "It's a sign. Go."

[Nephrite]

Moore attempts to open said door!

[Anastasia]

Amazing! The door opens. As it does, "Come in," A man's voice calls, beckoning you within.

[Nephrite]

"It's been a while." Moore says as he goes within the house. "I hope I'm not intruding."

[Anastasia]

Jetina and Xandra follow. "You aren't," the voice calls, "I'm back here."

[Nephrite]

"I swear this wasn't here the last time. Is it new, or... was I just not ready to see it yet?" Moore asks as he proceeds further inside!
