SAIL TO DISTANT SHORES
At last, he was back home. His journey had proven to be everything he had wanted it to be and more.
He paid a visit to the King’s palace on the way home to show his respects and left him a gift: a portion of the riches he had made on Vermia. The whispers over yonder told him all he needed to know about the situation; things were as stagnant as he had left them. Then, he made for Radditsu, carrying his spacepod on one shoulder.
One of his villagers was quick to spot him. Upon doing so, he ran over to him and welcomed him with their fingers interlaced and a bright smile.
“If it isn’t you! Tarro, where the hell have you been?” they said in a familiar tone. They genuinely seemed surprised to see him. After all, he hadn’t left word of where he had gone and simply left his chancellor in charge. “You seem changed… With the beard and all,” they commented in a passing manner. They were only able to perceive the superficial changes about him, but they were right: he was changed. He’d learned a thing or two while he was offworld.
“Gather the rest, Cassa. I want to speak to you all,” he addressed the lass, who quickly nodded, offered a thumbs-up, and turned around to call out to the townspeople. Soon enough, he had an audience formed of the villagers of Radditsu. His people.
Tarro set down his pod to his side and looked up as they entered his line of sight. He grinned widely upon seeing them, but then turned to his pod in search of something. Soon enough, it would be revealed what it was. He put what looked like a sack of potatoes in display to his people. He held it out with one hand while he laid the other to rest at his waist. “Who would like to guess what it is?”
After letting a few of them have at it, not wanting this to become a competition of who could shout the loudest, the man started again, “this, friends, is the wealth and riches I promise you, should you stand by my side as I sail the stars. We shall strive to make the situation better for our people, and later on for our kin, by establishing trade with other civilizations and plundering those who refuse.” He let slip out of the bag hundreds of coins, silver and gold, as well as other treasure, but stopped those who stepped forth to grasp it by standing between them and it.
“Now, now. We will divide this amongst the villagers and re-invest into the village. Each of you will use this newly acquired wealth to improve your respective fields of expertise.” He then had those of them he trusted share the goods as proportionally as they could, based on the person’s craft and needs, amongst other factors.
“Those of you who want to join me in the name of the Saiyan Kingdom for gold, glory, and adventure, take a step forwards! Let this only be the start of Radditsu’s prosperity,” he bellowed for all to hear. A number of them, who were already part of the underground Chiefdom, stepped forth, promising to fight by him when the time came. This inspired many more to do the same.
He nodded in approval at this.
“Then, be proud to say that you are a part of the Werewulf clan! You and everyone who wants to aid us in our trials, warrior or not,” he said, directing himself to his warriors first and then to the rest of the villagers. Some of them were initially hesitant to join the fight, feeling that they lacked the necessary skills to be raiders. However, with the promise that they could make a difference without having to engage in combat, many began to reconsider.
While their bonds were not of blood, he was sure their struggles-to-come and fights side-by-side would forge a bond greater.
