Of Fleets and Silvers

NOTE: the following story is centered around sailors, so expect some crude language.

     “Captain Evergrin, The Unbound is on the horizon. We should arrive in an hour.”

     The former slave turned ship captain glanced up from his desk and waved off the cabin boy. Pushing his chair back, he stood with a groan as his back cracked and popped. Keeping the smirk off his face, he reached over and grabbed the hat that marked his status as captain of the Northstar. Giving it a slight twirl as he donned the hat, Captain Evergrin turned to look at himself in the mirror.

Technology in the Green Coast: An Overview

Technology in the Green Coast has seen several advances in the last few decades. Boats that travel up and down the Black Ash River are powered by steam engines, armies have been broken by balls of stone launched at them with a crack of thunder and a cloud of smoke, advances in clockwork have allowed for timepieces that fit into a pocket, and a movable-type printing press reduces the time to copy a book from days to hours. All either put into use or invented in the last thirty years.
