Outside Port Doldot, upon the Inland River.
Under the veil of night, the river roared on.
Brand new Kirk Sailboats, distinct and clear, sailed upon its surface.
Twenty sailboats hailed from three trading companies.
Doyegge Chamber of Commerce, Rota Chamber of Commerce, Fissel Chamber of Commerce.
All three chambers were modestly famous within the territories of Ainhars and Bert.
Each mast's lookout held high a torch, making their company's flag clearly visible.
At the same time, they kept a wary eye on one another.
In fact, at this moment, sailors from the three companies watched each other as if facing a great enemy.
They did not believe the others were delayed in setting sail over a trifle matter.
Though they occasionally played the role of river pirates, the others had an even more notorious reputation.
One could never be too careful!
Many sailors had already loaded their firearms and stood on deck, their muzzles subtly pointing at their adversaries!
