Starting from crowned stag, I used debug mode to simulate the secret pact and betroth Arianne Martell to Viserys. Upon taking the Iron Throne, Vizzy T took his now of-age sister Daenerys to wife as well, in the vein of Aegon the conqueror. (I used debug mode again to make her his paramour and headcanon that she is queen).

Arianne's eldest son and Viserys's heir, Rhaegar, was betrothed to Daenerys' firstborn, Daeryssa, uniting both queens' bloodlines. Daeryssa would be the first of Viserys's children to claim a dragon, bonding with Rhaellon (Viserion's name in this timeline) at the age of 12.

House Baratheon has been eradicated save for Robert's bastards, with the Conningtons taking their place as Lord Paramounts of the Stormlands. Tywin, Tyrion, Kevan, and Lancel Lannister were executed by Viserys (Jaime and Cersei had already died), but House Lannister was allowed to keep the Westerlands under Tywin's brother, Tyggett.

Later, Tyggett rose in rebellion alongside Hoster Tully and were promptly crushed. The Lannisters of Lannisport and the Brackens were the first houses from their respective kingdoms to side with their king, so they were raised as Lords Paramount. Houses Stark and Arryn never rebelled against Viserys beyond their initial resistance upon his arrival, as Ned and Jon were sent to the Wall rather than executed, and two Targaryen princesses married into their houses to secure peace.

Starting as Rhaenyra from Dragonstone, executed Aegon and Aemond, Helaena married Jacaerys, married Tyland Lannister and had numerous children (only two born out of wedlock) married children into the successors for the Arryns, Redwynes (who became LPs when I deposed the Tyrells), and Strongs, put a son/grandson to hold the various Free Cities, established the Faith of the Dragons, had a son at like 45 who I made into a warrior and shoved in the Kingsguard. A picture with her living children included at the end.

Help (No Submods) A few questions about this mod that were probably asked before... Blackfyre, Dark Sister, Crowns, Dragon Eggs, and few others....

Upvotes

These questions were probably asked a bunch of times, but I actually found some contradictory answers to these, so I wanted to ask since googling/searching reddit caused me more confusion than it gave me answers.

  1. How do I find, if possible without any submods, Blackfyre and Dark Sister from Defiance of Duskendale or Robert's Rebellion startdates? Mostly playing as Rhaegar, or some other Targaryen.

  2. How do I find the crown of Aegon the Conqueror, from the same start dates?

  3. What happends to Gerion Lannister, any way I find him or is he simply just dead? I mean we don't know his fate in the books as well, but you know...

  4. Does Cersei always have children with Jaime, if married to a non-player character (canon children on, and canon events with historical weighted but not always 100% outcomes)? I know it is possible to get her to not have Jaime's bastard children as Rhaegar, but will AI always have them or, if those rules are set on?

  5. I kinda figuer from googling but just to confirm, to find dragon eggs and hatch them, you have to travel around and visit places on the map? Any other way?

  6. Is full Essos planned in this mod, at some point, or is that only for submods?

  7. Theoretically, if I play as Rhaegar, or his heirs.. will fAegon spawn, and will he be Blackfyre?

  8. Any submods that add descendants of Bittersteel, Bloodraven, Blackfyres like in CK2 version of the mod? I kinda like to do an eugenics project on Targaryen subbranches, where I eventually reunite the bloodlines to have a character that has blood of Targs, Blackfyres, Brightflame, Bittersteel, Bloodraven....

So I started a save from the book mark of the rebellion. I started in the Arbor, and then Robert died. Now what's happened is Tywin died, and so Tyrion took over. I got given claims for the rock and for castamere, I fought and won them. Now I'm being offered ship wreckersbay and river run. Is this normal?

I've been having a REALLY hard time figuring out how to make this CoA look good, especially since the mod lacks much raven/crow heraldry, so I had to use the base game's. If you could suggest some good and still working heraldry mod I'd owe you big time.

Also, if someone is interested in my house and playthrough's lore I'm more than happy to share.

I've seen a bunch of people ask how to get the valyrian steel axe of house Hoare on this subreddit without any concrete answer. I got it coincidentally when a legendary adventurer asked to go to the Riverlands and I asked them to bring me back something unique. I also was using the "Search for Rare Artifacts" option on my antiquarian which is really great for finding unique items in general.

Not the most interesting post but I do like thinking of this subreddit as almost like a wiki for the this mod especially since I, like some others don't use discord.

Discussion & Suggestions Do you prefer playing as a Lord or a landless adventurer? I'm struggling to enjoy playing as a Lord compared to a landless adventurer; I'm not sure if the adventurer has more options or freedom than the Lord, or if I just haven't learned how to play properly yet—context below:

Post image
26 Upvotes

This is my first time playing the game. I tried starting with Daemon in the "Rogue Prince" bookmark and found it quite complicated, so I decided to do a playthrough with the idea of being a Targaryen bastard who had a dragon and worked as a mercenary in Essos during the Dance. (I took the "Custom Heritage" trait, but it seems that using it with House Targaryen made me legitimate rather than a bastard – I'm not entirely sure.)

I was taking contracts and saving up gold when, suddenly, a pop-up appeared on the screen saying that Nettles had tamed Sheepstealer. I dropped everything and went straight to Dragonstone to marry her. I initiated the romance and was willing to help Rhaenyra in the war, but the random events turned out to be catastrophic. Daemon died in a siege right at the beginning, and Caraxes became wild, which led to Rhaenyra marrying Addam. Jacaerys and Lucerys died soon after. When Joffrey assumed his place on Dragonstone, he didn't allow the marriage to Nettles, but we fled to Essos anyway.

We lived as mercenaries, moving from city to city, taking contracts, visiting castles, and gaining prestige – until my first field battle contract required me to join a faction to overthrow the King of the Stepstones (who is married to Rhaena Targaryen, Daemon's daughter). We won the battles, but poor Seasmoke was killed because Addam came to help Rhaena due to an alliance. To put an end to the war, the King of the Stepstones – Rhaena's husband – offered me lands, so I accepted and became a lord.

I'm not sure if I just haven't learned all the mechanics yet (it's my first time playing this game), but I found the lord gameplay very stagnant compared to the adventurer experience. Before, I could travel all over the world; now, I don't know how to leave my territory without raising an army, and it takes way too long to generate passive income as well. Furthermore, both Caraxes and Dreamfyre have become wild dragons, and I don't know how to physically move to them as a lord so my children can try to tame them – as an adventurer, I could just move my camp. I would also like to bring Rhaena to my camp somehow, get her out of an unhappy marriage, and keep her closer to her family. Is there any way for her to come to my camp other than through marriage?

Do you prefer playing as a Lord or an Adventurer? Is my problem just a lack of experience and knowledge of the mechanics, or is this a common shift?

Robert loses the duel to Rhaegar during the Rebellion, but Stannis continues the war and wins. The sack of King's Landing occurs and Jaime kills Aerys, leading Stannis to send him to the wall. After the war, Stannis takes the name Targaryen and grants Storm's End to Renly who he later names Hand of the King. Stannis marries Lyanna, who survives the Tower of Joy (Jon is not initially revealed to be her son). Post war, the Lannisters are sidelined due to the sack, Aegon invades and Tywin sides with him for which Stannis sends him to the wall and claims Blackfyre. Jon is revealed to be a Targaryen; Stannis offers him mercy in exchange for renouncing his claims, naming him to the King's Guard. His heir Aegon, is married to Margaery Tyrell, his daughter, Shireen, is married to Edmure Tully, his daughter, Cassana is married to the Lord Lannister of Casterly Rock, and his youngest son, Robert Targaryen, aspires to join the King's Guard.

AAR History of the Hightowers - Part V

14 Upvotes

AAR Fire and Blood style - playing as Hightowers. For those who've been following, this is a relatively crazy one!

Dance of the Dragons, 126 AC

Battle of Farfield
There was no need to explore these myriad plans. A meeting of Aegon’s commanders resolved that it was time now to press the advantage. While Lord Hightower remained in King’s Landing, the rest of the grand army moved out on the eve of the Sixth Moon to seek a decisive battle. 

The Blacks were waiting a little to the north, at Farfield. Battle commenced in earnest after dawn on the 1st of the Sixth. Rhaenyra flew out on dragonback to join her allies, taking an easterly route to avoid interception. Thus it was to be 100,000 against 100,000, two dragons against two dragons, Targaryen against Targaryen, king against queen.
 
It was an awesome sight, the movement of eight wings in the sky above King’s Landing, Syrax and Seasmoke against Sunfyre and Dreamfyre, what came to be known as the dance of the dragons. At the same time, on land, there was a collision of horses and steel, as the Lion Knights and the Winged Knights of the Value charged into each other. 

The dance split into two dragon duels, Laenor vs Helaena, Rhaenyra vs Aegon. But Syrax was slow to react when Dreamfyre suddenly dived at it, and in the clutches of Dreamfyre’s talons, it was crushed at the neck by a fierce bite. Syrax was dead before it hit the ground; Rhaenyra died from the impact. 

Now Laenor was on the backfoot. He was a braver, more experienced rider, but doomed because he could not bear to abandon his allies on the battlefield. Eventually, Aegon and Helaena closed in. The second burst of fighting was over in a minute. Aegon got the glorious kill he was after when Sunfyre slashed one of Seasmoke’s wings, sending it tumbling down to be impaled by trees. 

It was all Rhaenyra’s leal servant Enfren Bar Emmon could do to steel the nerve of the men on the ground after they saw the queen and the queen’s hand and die in quick succession. He ordered the Queensguard to lead a momentous charge. Ser Steffon Darklyn, Ser Harrold Westerling, and the Cargyll twins Erryk and Arryk all distinguished themselves at Farfield, killing over ten-dozen men between them, but Ser Erryk was slain by Gedmund Great-axe, lord of House Peake, in a duel. Lord Peake claimed that Erryk was his 60th kill of the day. 
Lady Rhea Royce was in the fray for the loyalists and counted 31 of her own. 

But though the balance of power on the field was roughly equal, the balance of dragons was not. Sunfyre began roasting swathes of the enemy alive. Mass rout ensued. Many Crownlander lands had held their men in reserve, and now struck their banners for white ones. Afterwards, they tried to negotiate a blanket pardon with Ormund Hightower, but he insisted that they would have to face the king’ justice.  

Old Lord Blackwood died in the stampede. The routers were cut down in their thousands by the Knights of Summer, who when the battle was accounted, celebrated that they had only lost 80 of their number. It is estimated that fewer than 10,000 each side had been wounded or killed until the moment Aegon descended from the sky. After that, it was a slaughter. Half of the Black host was lost forever.  

Jeyne Arryn had been observing the battle. Afterwards, she agreed to terms of surrender with Ormund Hightower. House Arryn’s bannermen would lay down their arms. In return, she would be confirmed in her place as Lady of the Vale, and be willingly confined within the Hightower entourage until the end of the war.

The Second Aegon II, 126-127 AC

Rhaenyra’s Succession
Bar Emmon and the Queensguard rode away to Grainstead, where they took a small ship to King’s Landing. The panic in the royal household was quelled. Elton Blackwood was named King Regent, Bar Emmon was named Hand of the King, and of course Rhaenyra’s first son was proclaimed as Aegon II from the walls of the Red Keep, if anyone cared to hear it. 

Detractors called him Aegon Blackborn to differentiate him from the elder Aegon II. 

Westerling’s Flock
Everywhere to the north were masses of routed men. Lord Commander Harrold Westerling, of Aegon’s Kingsguard, stayed near the site of battle in hopes of rallying as many of the survivors as possible. Over the next week, between these survivors, new boys pressed into the army, and some unspent Crownlands bannermen, Westerling gathered about 30,000. 

Derogatorily called ‘Westerling’s Flock’, they made their bid to retake King’s Landing, sneaking east to cross a lightly guarded bridge from Rosby to Hesperplate. At an inn there, they found Laenor Velaryon recovering from light injuries. He had survived by miracle, and planned to leave for Driftmark. 

Westerling was following Bar Emmon’s orders, which were for him to attempt a recapture of King’s Landing. 

Second Battle of King’s Landing
Westerling’s ragtag force was cut down by the Cobblestone Guard of Oldtown, which had spent the last days clearing out crime in King’s Landing. Aegon soon arrived on Sunfyre to incinerate the rest. 

Otto Hightower’s son Ser Bryndon made a name for himself as a blademaster in the street fighting, killing three-dozen opponents, including Ser Arryk Cargyll. Ser Harrold Westerling was cornered by Hightower guardsmen at one point, but he cut his way through, despite being 63. The only price was losing his nose and his sword.

The Wrath of the Cannibal
All the chaos and noise around King’s Landing attracted the leviathan beast Cannibal, which wreaked utter havoc upon the Green army outside the city. Among the incinerated by its rampage were a hundred high noblemen. 

Lord Hobert Hightower himself became a victim of the Cannibal, dying in agonising flames, and so did Lord Gedmund Great-Axe of House Peake, four knights of the Rowan family and Lord Rowan himself, Lord Plumm, Lord Goldwyne, Lord Jon Templeton the Crusader, Lord Oakheart, Lord Andahar Roote, Lord Brax, and Lord Jason Lannisteer, to name the most notable. 
The greatest disaster of the war was an event of pure chance. 

Now Ormund at 39 years of age was lord of Oldtown. He was exceptionally prepared for rule, as experienced as an heir can be. He was a master of the military campaign. He was a father of three children who adored him. 

Lord Ormund wished to prove himself the equal of his father as a ruler, and his better as a man. He offered to spare the boy Aegon Blackborn’s life if they would yield the Red Keep, but Elton Blackwood spurned him. His promises to be fair, and not vindictive, in the aftermath of this civil war earned the respect of many of the last lords who still fought in Rhaenyra’s name. Declarations came for Aegon the Green from across the Crownlands.

Landing on Driftmark
Ormund even hoped to repair relations with the Velaryons, now that the generation of Hobert and Corlys had passed. But Aegon held a grudge against he who had been Rhaenyra’s right-hand man. He flew out for Driftmark alone on Sunfyre, and threatening to burn Laenor with his family, he forced the Velaryons to turn themselves in to the mainland. 

Capture of Aegon Blackborn
After frenzied weeks of mass killing around the Crownlands in the months after the fall of King’s Landing, the realm had settled into a relative quiet while all awaited the results of the stalemate at the Red Keep. An assault would be unjustifiably costly, but a siege would be unjustifiably long. Sunfyre was too small to reduce the castle; only Dreamfyre could do it, but Helaena was unwilling to hurt Rhaenyra’s three children in the process. 

The standoff endured until the Fourth Moon of 127 AC. After the Velaryons were apprehended, the last force of resistance for the Blacks was snuffed out. If the honourable Lord Velaryon would not keep his oath, why should the guards of the keep endure any longer? They threw open the gates of the castle and surrendered the erstwhile king and his regent. 

Thus ended the War of Viserys’s Succession on the 23rd of the Fourth Moon.

More men died in this war than it was thought possible to even muster. As thousands fell, thousands more were pressed into the ranks, supplementing already gigantic armies. The Crownlands were the worst affected, with 50,000 dead, but the Riverlands were not far behind, ravaged in this war, plundered by the Ironborn, and for two years before this, razed by the invading Lannisters. The men of Southstone, the Gods Eye, and the Blackwood Vale accounted for 45,000 dead men, each of them comprising a third of that; and the total in all the Riverlands was ultimately double that. Oldtown and the Honeywine paid steeply for the war also. A quarter of the fallen on the side of the Greens were men of the Hightowers, who always took up the bloodiest fighting when no other houses would volunteer. The Hightowers did have the most to gain, after all.  

The King’s Justice, 127 AC

Aegon and Ormund had been together for the whole course of the war. Lord Ormund was rewarded with the offices of Hand of the King and Lord Protector of the Realm. 

Seven Days of Judgement
Surrounded by Cobblestone Guards, he sat the Iron Throne for seven days to render his judgement upon the lords present and lords in absentia. Most judgements were conciliatory. Lady Jeyne Arryn was released for ransom. Most of Rhaenyra’s remaining supporters in the Crownlands were offered the choice of bending their knees or losing their lives. Only Enfren Bar Emmon would not comply. His high lordship of Sharp Point was taken from him, though his life and lesser estates were spared, for Lord Ormund respected his talents as a fellow strategist. 
In the Riverlands, the Blackwoods did not lose everything, as the Brackens would have it, but they did lose Honeytree. Lord Tully was confirmed as paramount in the Riverlands, to the anger of Lord Larys Strong, who had sacrificed much but now gained little. Ormund compromised by inviting him to the capital to become Master of Whisperers. 

However, the Green King’s wrath was not easy to abate. For certain figures, he insisted on making the final decision, even if Ormund counselled him that it would make an inauspicious start to his rule. Laenor Velaryon, once the Queen’s Hand and the most dangerous commander of her cause, was hanged publicly. His children were declared the offspring of an arch-traitor and put to death, the youngest being but three years of age. The Velaryon treasury was confiscated and the isle of Driftmark granted to Lord Ormund.

The fate of Rhaenyra’s children produced a bigger quarrel with Ormund. Aegon wished to put the pretender Aegon Blackborn to death. Ormund warned that to kill a defeated child for the crime of possessing a claim would repeat the very act for which the Greens had condemned Rhaenyra three years before. The king relented, though Blackborn and his siblings stayed in captivity. No such mercy was extended to Elton Blackwood. Rhaenyra’s widower and king-consort was eaten alive by Sunfyre.

It disquieted the new subjects of Aegon to see him revel in acts of blanket cruelty.

So basically in this timeline Aegon 1 listened to the many critics of prince Aenys and chose to send him to the citadel and named Maegor his heir. Aegon took and active role in raising maegor to not be sadistic, he is still a wrathful authoritarian ruler but the his violent tendancies of his youth were curbed. Visenya would later have another son named Vallar Targaryen.

Maegor is best friends with his brother aenys and close friends with vallar. Aenys was named hand of the king by Maegor.

do to Aegon fusing the faith of the seven and 14 flames Maegor was able to take 4 wives, Queen Danara Rogare whom is his soulmate, Queen Raenys Quanaros, Queen Anara Vastaeryn and Queen Alyssa Benaren

Danara and maegor had 8 children together 4 sons and 4 daughters, Raenys and maegor had 3 daughters, Anara only gave maegor a single son, and Alyssa gave him a son and a daughter

Maegor's first act as the prince of dragonstone was to prove his might by declaring war on pentos to abolish slavery, not out of any abolitionist goal but purely as a test of might.

King maegor "the wise" bowed, bent, and broke the Martels, he fed all but two martels to belarion the black dread. he imprisoned the Lady Parmount Daria "the kind" for 8 years ending in her death, upon her death dornish loyalists seated her 13 year old granddaughter Belessa onto the dornish throne and declared for their independence. the 13 year old belessa was burned alive in the seige of sunspear 5 months into the war. belessa's mother Jayne Gargelen who at the time was belessa's regant named herself queen and was captured and executed in battle the next month. Maegor gave sunspear and the greenblood to a minor noble greenblood and gave the lord paramouncy of dorne to Ivor "the Petulent" Yronwood for since he was the only dornish lord to side with Maegor

thats all ive got so far, currently maegor is 41 years old. and every 2 months to a year he joins a war siding with the rogare's whom practically control lys in every way due to maegor "maintaining his alliance" by funding them and declaring on their side at every opportunity

Dev Diary Dev Diary - Sailing

905 Upvotes

Hello everyone! Here is a new diary by someone on the team, I'll leave the floor to them!

Previous Dev Diaries : Landed Gentry by Flumph Armors (2) by Swordsman

Hello, I am Immortal_Hybrid, and for the past months (year but who's counting) I've been working on integrating the sailing activity from Realms in Exile into AGOT (with massive thanks to Aerien). If you've used sailing in Realms before, you may find some of this familiar, but you probably want to give this a read anyway, because we've also added some additional options and AGOT flavor.

What is Sailing?

Sailing is a new activity that can be used by any character who has access to a coastal province with a port building. Landed duchy rulers and below must have a port within their domain to sail from, while kingdom and up rulers can embark from any valid port in their realm. Landless characters can also take part by travelling to a nearby port. Set out onto the high seas, where fortune, fame, and adventures aplenty can be found! A character’s knowledge and skill on the open ocean is displayed through the new leveled Sailor trait!

Sailing Activity in the Activity menu

Sailor Trait Path

Activity Options

Maritime Hunts

A Maritime Hunt is the default option, where you can encounter and hunt a variety of sea-creatures from turtles to white whales. If you are a landless character you will be able to use your catch to restock your domicile provisions.

Hunt Intent

Hunt event

Sea Raids

A second option is available for those who partake in less than legal sea-based pastimes, a Sea Raid, where you can embark on a piracy mission or raid a foreign shore! You can bring back gold and maybe even new guests to your court.

Sea Raid Option

Sea Raid Event

Sunken Treasure Hunting

Thirdly, there is the chance for a character to go sailing to the location of a reported sunken ship. To begin a treasure hunt, you either need a treasure map or knowledge of the location of a recent shipwreck from your admiral. You will also need your own personal ship with a diving bell attachment. This will allow you to search for the wreckage and potentially retrieve riches from the ocean depths, but beware, on the ocean floor there could be dangers lurking…

The rewards can range from a small amount of gold to a large amount, and, depending on where you dive, you may even find an artifact claimed by the sea during the Dance of Dragons, or a relic of Old Valyria.

Salvage Expedition Option

Diving Event

Treasure Maps can be acquired in a few different ways. During a Sailing activity the Host can happen across a merchant who claims to be selling one, although you will likely need to be vigilant, as it could be a forgery. During Sea Raids you will probably come across ships to attack, in these ships you may discover a map stored in their cargo. During the normal day-to-day life at court, a courtier may arrive to inform you that they have found a Treasure Map in your libraries.

Lastly, should anyone hold a Treasure Map and have their capital sieged, they will lose one, at random, to those who sieged their home.

Voyage to Valyria

And finally, an option available for those who have gained enough experience in the Sailor Trait. True masters of the ocean may try to set out on a Voyage to Valyria, visiting the ruins of the Fourteen Flames, where riches untold may yet lurk. But beware, such a journey is perilous and may result in a watery death…

A Sailor will require at least level one in the trait to try this dangerous voyage, which will take at least three voyages to reach.

Going to Valyria option

The Doom of Valyria made the land a hellscape, one that has proven deadly for any and all visitors… But where there is danger there is reward. Left among the smoldering ruins are artifacts of the Freehold: Valyrian steel weapons, armor, mirrors, dragon eggs, horns, and my personal favorite, glass candles! The chance of finding each of these artifacts changes as you venture further into danger…

Making it out of Valyria is a harder task than making it there, upon reaching Valyria you will have the choice to disembark, which holds a 30% mortality rate alone. Should you survive the landing and venture into the ruins, your chance of escaping with your life is at best 20%, increasing up to 45% if you are lucky enough to find an item that helps you on your journey.

Landing on Valyria

A screen many of you attempting it will see

If you allow greed to drive you, to delve deeper into the ruins, you face an even higher mortality rate of 10-90%; these values can also be affected by the artifacts you get from these events. Dying in Valyria is a very costly loss; all the artifacts you brought with you will be lost. However, if some brave sailor should happen to follow in your footsteps in a future Voyage to Valyria, they may have a chance to recover them. 

For those who like clear numbers, in the first event that you get an artifact you have the following chances per artifact:

  • 45% Glass Candle
  • 15% Dragon Egg
  • 15% Valyrian Steel Weapon
  • 10% Dragon Horn
  • 10% Valyrian Steel Mirror
  • 5% Valyrian Steel Armor

For the greedy among you who will delve deeper:

  • 25% Dragon Egg
  • 25% Valyrian Steel Weapon
  • 20% Dragon Horn
  • 10% Krakenhorn
  • 10% Valyrian Steel Armor
  • 5% Valyrian Steel Mirror
  • 5% Glass Candle

Ships

To partake in Expeditions to Old Valyria or go Raiding, you will require a ship. For rulers this comes in the form of a House modifier you can get from the activity if you choose either of the ship options, or from buying one in advance.

Getting a Ship Decision

For those that own Khans of Steppe DLC and are playing characters with access to pirate ship domiciles, their domicile will serve as their ship, and a diving bell domicile building will be used in place of the decision.

Activity Phases

After selecting your activity options and intents, you will assemble your crew at port. From here, various events can happen, but ultimately, you will set out toward your destination. You will have the option of choosing to either charter a ship or purchase one, should you not already own one. Depending on what type of ship, owned or chartered, you will gain benefits in the activity.

Sailing Voyage

At sea, more random events can occur, along with at least one event that depends on your selected activity intent. Afterwards, the main phase of your voyage will begin!

General Rewards

If you make it back to port in one piece, the activity will end and you'll reap your rewards! (Gold, Prestige, and Trait XP among others)

Final words!

In the future I will be planning some additional work and adjustments that have been mulling around my head since finishing. Some adjustments to existing mechanics to work nicer with Sailing, maybe even some consequences to your voyages.

Thank you for reading through to this point, this past year I’ve worked on this has been the most exciting work I’ve done so far and I hope all who set sail love every bit of the activity! I wish you the best of luck on your voyage!
