OOC: It's been a quick minute since i've used this table. / +677


There was a knock at his door. He'd been resting the last few days since he had rode pretty hard to get back to Vinatta. He arrived with the others, if only because he was busy with his luggage that he had to bring back. He brought back an assortment of things, and he had gotten rid of all of his weapons that were finely crafted and unused by him. That meant that he had only one bow as apposed to three, and many of his swords were gone now. He traded for some shiny things (for Alessandra) and he ended up bringing home a mare. The mare was still green, and she barely liked Reykr (she had already bitten him and kicked him a few times) and she was just a stuck up bitch, but she was pretty, and she was worth training. Reykr knew about horses and their training (which was why Val was so well trained) so he had been working with her on the way back, but she still, by no means was accepting of him riding her. This was fine for him now, since he had Valknut to ride as well. The only real reason he got the mare was so that they could breed her with Valhalla.

The knock was answered by Lessa, who came to him and told him that Saul was at the door, and that he needed help with what was it? A boat? Something like that. Reykr slowly got up and yawned. He kissed his love and then put his black bear cloak and his fox loincloth and he met up with Saul and another male by the name of Niernan outside of his house. Reykr tossed a gaze at the tied grullo colored mare before he whistled to Valknut. The Elk was closeby, so he came trotting up, and Reykr grabbed a few planks of wood, and a rope and he tied the planks to the flank of the elk (the planks would be dragged along the ground) and then he took two saddle bags and put them on the back of the Elk. He then placed a few hammers and nails in one of the bags and then two axes in the other. He thought about what else he might need before he left, but he couldn't think of anything, so he got on top of his steed and rode towards the shoreline, where Saul told him that he should meet them.

The ride was calm, and at a steady pace. He was in no rush to get to his destination. He still wanted to sleep, but it had been later in the day and it made sense for him to go ahead and wake up by doing some sort of work. Sooner or later he got there, and he saw the two waiting by the overturned boat with a few holes in the hull. He clicked at Val to hurry his gait and the elk did, only for a few moments before he stopped though. Valknut didn't like to approach strangers, and even though he had seen Saul before, there was little trust in the male. Valknut stopped a few paces before them, and Reykr dismounted and brought out tools. He approached the two with an axe and a hammer for both of them. He had one hammer for himself, and he figured that they could just share the axes.

Where to start, oh where to start? asked the male in a sing-song voice as he looked at the damaged hull. The male scratched his chin and he chuckled lightly. Virding, you are right, we should be able to fix this. We have to get rid of this whole side of the hull though, since this hole here is pretty big. spoke the Risna, having only little experience with boats, but much more experience with wood. He was sure that he would be able to help fix this. Hopefully the other two knew something about wood working, or about boats.
