Kieran tenses at the thunder, then nods.

'Aye, agreed. Arryl, please show Mistress Grym and Melanie tae my cabin. Lock yerself in lass, the key is in the lock, and dinnae go near the safe - the last Captain trapped it. Once ye've done that Arryl, I'll see ye at the helm'.

'Aimari, Maia, on deck!'

Kieran is about to run up on deck, then he checks himself, and turns to Bartholomew.

'Do either ye or yer companion have any experience crewing Aethercraft? If so, we could use yer help on deck'.
