They never came for any of it. Never saw signs of someone even scouting the place out, much less anything to the scale of whatever an official salvaging operation would look like to sufficiently put a dent in all of the stuff here.
*Walks up to a bent piece of the hull on the edge of the damage. I glance it over, then put both hands on it and pull really hard until a jagged piece about as big as my torso snaps off*


If you get hurt on the first day of the job, it won't be the greatest first impression.

It’s fine. This should work. I imagine whatever alloys these ships are made of are so hard that it would impress townsfolk of a vaguely medieval-to-Victorian era society. Might go for a pretty penny, and they could melt it down and make Excalibur.

I think that a legendary fishing pole would make for a great story. Maybe you should try to sell it as that.

I don’t think I have the skillset to actually make something of this.

That's too bad. You'd probably earn more.

Or the tools. I don’t remember you showing me a smithy in the castle or anything like that.

The boss has a workshop, but I'm not much of a handyman, so I never go in there. If you think it'll sell for a lot, we should take it to the big city, and one of their smiths will probably buy it.

I think it would probably sell for enough for me to buy some real clothes. If it comes up short, it’s not like there’s a shortage.

For now. Don’t want to lug too much back. If it ends up being super valuable after appraisal, I don’t want to flood the market immediately and run someone dry.

I don’t know. Maybe.

I suppose we could look through an armory to see if there are any bladed weapons already lying around, but I stopped looking for those months ago. Not sure if this one even has an armory intact.

I did early on, when I was worried about self defense and was unsure if I’d find anyone unfriendly.

We can look if you want. Call it a sword from a faraway land.

*Looks it up and down, glancing at the surface of the object that seems to exert no gravity despite being so massive that it stretches out of sight in either direction. I push against it with my hands, and after a moment, they sink into it and it begins to pull me in*
