[pnpgm] Update #40 - Raddok

[Bessie Hadley]

Times determined by GM's plotted storyline, but starting briefly after date/time of Update #40

Greatly relieved at seeing Z'leyra slowly come around, and not having been bashed himself by the giant, Raddok pauses & relaxes enough to finally notice that the kidnapped sailor, maybe more? (he wasn't really watching after Z'leyra fell) has been rescued - & by the dwarf among others, no less - very brave! The crew & the others had apparently worked very efficiently together - admirable, indeed! 

He is rather surprised at first, but ends up grinning at Dohak's complaint of people lying around on the job. He feels the dwarf is releasing his worry by making everyone re-focus on what now "is" as opposed to "was" just a minute or so ago, and wants that subject/worry changed & gone. Raddok retrieves his shield & Healing Kit when Arawn & anyone else who needs it are finished with it. He carefully checks to see that the tools from the kit are retrieved, so he can clean them & boil them in water, before restoring them, wrapped in a clean, small cloth, to the kit. He also compares the remaining supplies with the list posted on the inside of the Kit's lid flap to note what will need to be replaced at the next port. When the tools are cleaned, he will restore the kit to his locker on deck, with relief that having it there was so useful, and add his needed replacement supplies to the posted supplies list, adding his name, & a request to be notified of any billing cost to him.

Later, he hears Z'leyra's request to listen in on a conversation in Dwarf Elder, so she can learn the language magically, & he joins the conversation with Dorhak, Barbosa or whoever has gathered to help Z'leyra. He will also help whoever is assigned to help repair the smashed railing with whatever repairs can be made until any missing parts can be purchased at the next port. If nothing else, he will help string together (braid?) ropes to block the missing rail. His mining experience has taught him some ways to use heavy wood beams, etc., to brace stone walls, often using ropes & pulleys, & that knowledge might help a bit.

As for the dagger fight, Raddok is eager to watch, and he places a bet of 3 brass bits (all he dare spend) on Kiet, altho' he is not really sure his new friend can beat the dagger maiden. An intriguing duet is about to play, he thinks, and prepares to enjoy himself. (He remains armed with mace & shield.)
