Ook'Laa hoists Eddie up on his shoulder, and escorts Bell back to the room.
He will bed down himself.

the first mate of the River Run arrives at Rusty's, orders up a drink and causally walks up to the table. "Eve'n" he casually says as he gulps down his drink, "Cap'n say the Run's in great shape and we're ship'n at 6 bells. see ya on deck" and with that he fills his drink from your bottle on the table, then turns and heads out.

a quick check puts it at about 9 bells currently.

Phelps will hang around at Rusty's for a while longer. He waits for Cotton to return and to see Georgia.

After being polite and catching up, he will declare, "I think this party has wound down. Better get some rest before we brave the dangers of this crazy place tomorrow." If no one keeps him, he takes the remainder of his bottle and heads out the door and heads toward the boarding house.

Wilde decides to take a stroll. This is a wonderful town nestled in a savage land, and he might as well appreciate it while he has the time, besides, knowing what kind of shops and buildings are in town sounds like a good idea. And he might bump into some interesting people.

He memorises the look of Rusty's, so he can find it again, and then sets of in a random direction, taking in the scenery and enjoying the eternal sunshine.

(back on track)

A fine night's sleep in your loft over at Ms Grant's Inn does wonders to restore the vitality of your very weary group. Alas, even with that sleep, the "road rash" on Pvt. Phelps's side and the broken and bruised ribs being sported by Nora will be a constant reminder of the monster still lurking in the deep somewhere.

As your group moves toward the docks, eager to get there before 6 Bells, a constant whisper and an occasional "Good Job" can be heard, shouted at Phelps and Tex. "Him'z the one what jumped in Ole' One-Eye's mouth anna put that bomb there" and "That guy wit ta rope done fished all dem people from da mouth of da beast all by himself" and "Dat's the girl what almost died twernt for dem two guys" all can be heard as you walk to the River Run's dock.

Down at the dock, all appears to be in order.
The River Run is back in the water.
The lumber from Woodstock is secured back on deck.
Captain Dougan and crew appear to be loading the last of that orange coal into the bins.
"Ready to break a record or two Kid?" he shouts to Eddie as you approach.

As your group arrives at the dock, it's worth noting that Max, Cotton and Georgia are also along, intent on taking the cruise to Sandbar "...with the rest of you mugs."

Nora's response to the murmurs is a scowl and gritted teeth.

"Typical. Give the men all the credit, make the woman look helpless," she grumbles, grimacing as the exertion of walking makes her tender ribs ache.

As they walk along Bell will be looking around at the strangeness of this huge city (she hadn't had the opportunity to see much of it when she first arrived). Okay, it may not be very large to most folks...but she is from a remote village much smaller than this place.

Her empathy gets a workout as she sees and assesses many strangers as they walk along.

Ook'Laa gives Eddie a lift down to the docks, and follows him around as he inspects the boat.

"Permission to come aboard, Captain?", Phelps calls from the dock. "We are as ready as we are going to be at this point."

"This is the rest of out folks." He gestures to Max, Cotton and Georgia. "The Professor will be joining us as well."

As his stroll takes him to the docks, Wilde sees the rest of his fellow castaways have already congregated there. He waves and hurries to them. 'Sorry I'm late, I couldn't resist taking a look around.' he then spots the Co-pilot amongst them. 'Ah, it is good to see you in good shape. We haven't been properly introduced' he says extending his hand to him. 'My name is Professor Iwan Wilde.'

as you all come drifting up to the River Run, Captain Dougan yells at you "well gat aboard! donna want to be waitin all day, we gat's us some pearls to win!" You see him look toward Eddie for a moment, then under his breath he mumbles "i'z hope."

the rest of the crew is already aboard, and the lumber from Woodstock is strapped down tighter then on the trip up from the ocean.

"You heard the man. Let's get going. Eddie, do you have all your tools?"

Phelps makes sure that Max, Cotton and Georgia get aboard.

Once they are settled, Phelps approaches the captain. The soldier hands the seaman the replacements for the flares he used on the Ol' One Eye encounter. "Captian, these are for you. I hope we will not need them this time out but it seemed only fair that I replace them. Do you have any duties for our gang for this trip? Hopefully we will not need to go fishing again." He gives a forced smile.

Nora, in an obvious huff, strolls into the barge to the appreciative gaze of the crew and stands, her arms crossed, waiting for the captain's orders, ah, that is, requests.

Bell walks aboard and finds a safe position out of the way near the center of the ship.

She will see if she senses anyone feeling nervous or guilty. After that she will see if she can sense any stowaways. Then she will sit back to enjoy the ride.
