båtlaus mann er bunden til land.

WHO: Ubbe, open
WHEN: April 20th-30th
WHAT: Final week before sail
WHERE: Around Gazin
WARNINGS: Will update if needed

Ubbe has decided to spend his last week in town so that he can chart his course with the maps he's been loaned by a local fisherman who has endeared himself to the Viking and offered his experiences with the ocean that he's about to sail. Normally, navigating was done on the water; the journey never planned because that was not how they did things in his world. His father never did it. Nor did Bjorn. All that was ever taken was enough food and water for the journey and sunstone to find their way.

But times have changed and like mapping a journey on land, sailors can map their travels by boat.

He takes a few days to simply do as he pleases, to visit the market and chat with some of the townsmen he's befriended and gather a few remaining things before setting off with Daenerys, who seems equally excited to get moving.

And on the eve of them departing, at the Inn, he buys a round for everyone and sets up a table, paying the bartender and cook handsomely to provide food and drink. This was going to be the first of many voyages and he planned to celebrate!

Finnick's used to having drinks bought for him. But here, it's not a common occurrence so far, because here people aren't trying to ingratiate themselves to him, or get him to pay attention, any attention, to them in the way that they do in the Capitol. It makes a difference. So Finnick is happy to have a drink bought for him and to become part of the celebration forming around the man who's drawing so much attention.

He listens, for a while, before he goes over to the man.

He'd thought he heard the words sail and voyage, and wanted to know more about this stranger.

"What's the occasion?" he asks, raising a glass in thanks to the man.
