Moon Lake ~
Elizabeth popped out of the cart, "stop wiggling there!"
She hushed Rof who now was in her saddlebag. She looked at the huge mansions that were close to the quay. Two streets away but the Lake's quay was visible.
The scent of fish, grilling in the near restaurants was perfumed in the air as the sun was going down. Some crews set fire in a bucket to get warm. Elizabeth stood beside her uncle, looking back she saw broken ice on the surface of the water. This Lake had a canal that could lead the ships to the Griffin sea and a river was joining the lake to run to the sea.
"Uncle, is that merchant Hamoon's ship?"
She was staring at the quay and everything that was veiled in snow but the crews were conveying the cargoes to store them in the lodges.
"Yes, darling!"
Elizabeth took a deep breath and followed her uncle and Charles who were carrying her stuff.
