...in the docks of canal ward near the clan cave worm area is a Kuo-tao ship. Quite small equipped with oars and, for those with an eye for mechanics, some sort of magical scew.

recently painted on the side of the ship is the words ' Deep Iolite'.

For those who may have passed the ship recently could have noticed there I a lot more rope on the Iotlite than there was before.

Some of you may have seen Ruby going back and forth to the ship lugging rope with her.

Some others may have seen her frowning at her money purse on the way back to the seeker hall muttering about 'bloody exspensive bits of entwined string'

((ooc note: this includes plenty of 'sturdy rope' from the lower market and 'long rope' from fort mur))

The ship has not returned to its dock.
