Time For An Upgrade

The Dagon arrived in Longsaddle two days after leaving Yardar the second time.

Tav addressed everyone. "I expect everyone to be back by sundown. This isn't a pleasure cruise. We are trying to stop the Mind Flayer invasion from spreading. If you want to drink, then drink at Fera's bar. If you are late, don't bother returning; we are not waiting again." She specifically looked at Shadowfang and Frost. "As punishment, you are both confined to the ship, and you must clean."

Tav went to see the Council of Elders.

Since Luna already had an arc do he shopping and his group were not big drinkers in the first place, she asked them for help on improving the Dagon. Bobby Flayer was calibrating the systems as Luna made her upgrades using some dragon parts, metals purchased by Arc and other monster materials she collected during her part of the stampede quest. These improvements would help out with the Dagon’s defenses, weapons, maneuvering, speed, sleeping quarters, food storage and fuel processing for the Dagon. Normally monster guts were tossed away or used for fertilizer, but Luna had Arc take a quest to remove and dispose of a very large landfill of monster guts due to the stampede.

The money he made was used to buy needed supplies and food for the mission. Granted they were on a big mission to defeat the Mind Flayers, it didn’t mean that they would always get support from others and politicians had a tendency to lie and trick others for their own selfish interests. Luna preferred to work with what they had and improve on that. Arc and Styx gladly helped out Luna with the moving of the materials and now and then passed by a troubled Frost and Shadow Fang who still had a hangover. Other crew members who didn’t have a chance to go ashore before went this time, which is why Arc and Styx didn’t mind. Eve wanted to help and play but lacked the skill and size to be useful. Many hours went by as Luna was doing her upgrades. Bobby Flayer worked with Luna on the calibrations for each upgrade to make sure that the Dagon was in working order.
