Morgan readied his equipment, around his gem encrusted magic belt there were all types of potions, he swapped a few over, he wanted one potion of restoration on each side, in the front of him healing and mana that will keep his strength up for the troubles that may come to him
he Walked along to the side of a large Galleon, "Star of the West" it said on the side, obviously this was perhaps its home port and not its destination and this comforted the man who was also Western himself to be among his own and not foreign people on a foreign vessel. He took his place in a line of people going into the boat, "10 silvers sir" said a rugged rather elderly man, his white beard and bald head giving him a look of a man far older than he actually was, he also spoke with an accent strange to Morgan but still he did as he did with the Bar tender back at the Inn, he sent power down his arm and into his hand, clenching his fist, then opening a small shower of gold coins, exactly 12 fell into the captains hands. The bearded man almost fell over and immediately steadied himself, "sir i don't run no Charity, its only 20 sil..", with a wave of his hand Morgan silenced the man,"its ok captain, a captain of such a fine vessel deserves a little more" he spoke quietly and strode aboard, the captain following him a little before stopping and turning to the rest of the crowd, "passage is no more than 20 silvers!!" the bearded man bellowed across the crowd, as Morgan went to find his a room worth the money he paid a smile spread across his face, amused at the Captain.
Morgan Stouce had settle into the largest room available to passengers and often had the captain give him not only queer but also sometimes slightly disgruntled looks, he was a proud man and given more money than he asked for made him feel uneasy. Morgan looked out over the sea, he had lied when he spoke highly of the ship, although it had a lot of large rooms and accommodation, it seems that was actually all they were, the rooms quality was certainly not something one would speak highly of, the ship itself, masts torn from the many journeys it made between the two ports of the west and to Kurast. Tired and a little weary from the journey and the drink he had earlier finally taking effect and making him feel dozy he went back to his room, the dust covered bed probably swarming with all kinds of lice was actually inviting and he settled on it. Morgan once again had nightmares, tossing and turning in his bed, he groaned to himself, suddenly he was awoken, a cold steel dagger close to his throat. Looking up Morgan could see 4 men in his room, it seemed he was wrong with the comfort he thought he would get on a vessel from his homeland, the skinny unkept man breathing foul break through rotting teeth pressed the blade closer, "wherd ya put ye gold rich man", another small fellow was on the floor searching around while a pair of large men handled Morgans Grand heartseeker, he could not allow Brigands and thieves to threaten him, he readied himself.
Suddenly without warning the blade in the unkept mans hands started to shake and glow, Morgans eyes widening the blade slipped from the mans grip and made an awkward turn up and through its owners skull, blood pouring from his head down his back startled the other smaller man on the floor and he fled out of the door while the two larger men readied for battle, one wielding a long sword, the other wielding the Heatseeker, they leaped at Morgan who dodged, their movements seeming almost sloth like in comparison as he expertly dodged sweeping blows and lunges, then after a moment they both threw themselves at him, one blade caught Morgan through the arm and sliced downwards, wincing Morgan growled and took the lunging mans head under his arm, breaking it in a swift movement, taking advantage of Morgans position the other threw all his strength into a swipe with heartseeker which suddenly in mid slash twisted round glowing and Morgan took held of the handle, he hesitated a little then slashed and the blade went straight through the man from head to lower torso and he split in two, yet to Morgans amazement the man sealed back together, "i don't..want your...Gold...i want..your soul" the being said in a voice that sounded like nails on a chalk board, Morgan gasped as he dodged away as the Demonic fiend leaped at him, its hands pured with blood as the flesh dripped away to reveal barbed claws that went straight for morgan who also had a move of his own, quickly jolting aside he concentrated on his blade which burst forth with flames and he pushed it straight through the beasts head, it let out a piercing scream as its body crisped and fell into ashes on the floor, ship mates poured into the room, soon Morgan drank a potion along his belt and the blood pouring from the gash in his arm disappeared just as the cut itself sealed shut as if nothing had ever even touched him.
The Rest of his journey was uneventful, eventually he had to once again take rest and when he awoke the heat of the room immediately brought his senses to now know he was not in the west, looking out over the area he could see the Jungle around the ports, a peculiar place, a village that seemed to have been built across as well as on top of the water, he looked out as he left the ship, the Captain grunting as he left, struggling the man who had fled from Morgans room earlier was being taken by the Kurast Guards, Morgan looked out and could see a young girl, she was wearing a odd looking type of clothing but then he had not been to this part of the world before and did not know their dress. He was feeling a pull towards the girl through his senses and though that this was whom Tyrael had spoken of, he approached slowly.
