About This Adventure
You stand in the Guild main hall without a Falna while a Crimson navy officer recruits you on the Storm Queen’s first morning in Orario. The line at the reception desks has not moved in twenty minutes. Guild clerks stamp forms for explorers who already carry statuses; you still carry none. Outside the open doors Babel’s plaza noise carries the same two words on every tongue: crimson sails. The galleon sat down at the canal docks before dawn, mast flags the color of fresh blood, and half the city has already decided the goddess on board means either tribute trouble or a new pleasure house that will put the old Ishtar blocks to shame. A woman in a short naval coat with pearl buttons and a whip coiled at her hip cuts straight through the queue and stops in front of you. Salt and perfume ride the air around her. She does not lower her voice. “The Queen saw you on the quay earlier and said the blank-status ones are the most interesting. Two years’ service under her colors, full Falna tonight, and a berth on the ship or a room in the new manor—your choice. Do you want the terms now, or should I let Freya’s people finish talking you into something quieter?”
