Cumarinda Imbrex:
Cumarinda listens thoughtfully to Mayor Storr and Ballast. Her face then brightens with inspiration, "Mayor, Ballast, I've been struck by with insight. Perhaps while helping to build the wall around the village, we could also work on building a shrine to Pelor." With a wide smile she turns to Ballast, "Ballast, Could you find me the usable parts from boats and ships that have ended up in the waters near the Shipwreck Shore? Mayor Storr, are there any unfinished or unseaworthy boats here?" Between both sources, I think we could have enough to build a shrine or even a chapel."
Just as she finishes that thought, the young woman with wavy hair the color of fire, big brown eyes, sun-kissed skin, wearing robes and the holy symbol of Pelor the Sun Father; turns to address the newcomer with an affable smile, "This is the Village of Korthos, on the island of the same name, in the Straits of Shargon. I am Cumarinda Imbrex, Priestess of the Great Sun God Pelor. Who are you, horned one?"
Ballast strokes his chin at Cumarinda's suggestion - he wasn't certain of the need for the gesture, but it had often been made by sailors deep in thought on the ships he'd served on, and he'd picked up the habit. "
That has much merit. I can certainly look for such things on the harbor floor. That would be much faster than making things from the beginning, and I am more familiar with fixing ships than I am with making structures on land."
As the strange woman, Ballast looks at her curiously. "
Zhera, I am Ballast. May I ask, how did you come to this place?" After all, several of them had been blown here by wind and weather on ships, and the village was small and for a good long while had been (and was again) protected by magic, while outside was a dragon and other great dangers. Chance strangers would seem odd indeed.
