Eastern coast of New West Alden 8 Dosa 1288 Leif Adersen took a deep breath. The coastal breeze tasted vaguely of salt, mixed with the fresh scent of an undisturbed forest. There was also the faint smell of rainwater. Perhaps the storm that had crossed his fleet last night had first passed over the islands of New Alden. It'd be a weak storm, however, leaving no significant damage on his fleet. He'd made landfall anyway. The peninsula, flanked on the west by a small river, seemed a good location to found the new colony. "Lovely place, 'ey, Leif?" Lag asked. "Ye'," Leif answered. He stepped off the rowboat onto the sandy shore, followed quickly by his brother, Lag Adersen, and a handful of other men. There was a forest at the end of the beach. It looked like good timber, from this distance. The crew had reported sighting birds over the forest too; he hoped there'd be large game too. As Leif stared at the treeline, the second boat hit the shore, and the rest of the scouting party joined Leif's group. "Alright, gents," said Leif, scanning the faces of his nine scouts. They were armed with muskets, and each carried a few of packs—ammunition and other supplies, as well as a couple days of food. They weren't planning on staying out long, but it was better to be prepared. "Luka, you stay here with the boats. Andre, take Damen, Theo, and Math south and east. The rest of you, you'll come west with me. We want to know what's in the three leagues around the site. Wildlife, the quality of the dirt, if there's any indigenes nearby. If this site's good, we can bring the rest of the colonists to shore tomorrow." The scouts nodded. After they helped Luka drag the boats onto the sand, they broke into their respective groups and embarked into the forest. The sun was at its zenith. |
