　　By midday the last of the supplies and luggage had been stowed aboard the Crown Jewel, and the lines of passengers were gone. Royce and Hadrian, along with several hundred dwarfs who filled the harbor, watched as Auberon, Sloan, and a couple others were called up the ramp. They stood at the rail and spoke with Bray, Tiliner, and Cassandra. It wasn`t a long meeting, and soon they returned. The gangway was thrown off as were the mooring lines. Some of the dwarfs helped with this and even waved goodbye.Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author`s consent. Report any sightings.
