Rose on the Grey

The year 1577, a rather calm day on the dangerous water of the infamous New World, as one medium-size vessel was seen traveling towards a small but rather active island. Wolfwater, a little summer island unknown to most, due to its reduced size and high value to those that were able to find it. And the reason behind that was because this island was not only rich in its fertile soils but also on its mines, having bought protection from traveling pirates for many years.

"Cap'n, we are approaching the island of Wolfwater." Short in stature fully dressed on his uniform, this young marine reported to an older gentleman dressed in the same manner as the former. Just this one had on him a long white coat that was being used as a blanket, instead of being placed over his shoulders. "Zzzz...huh, what." Suddenly jumping awake from his chair, the older gentleman began to look around, as if in search of danger frantically. "Didn't I tell you to just wake me up in case of danger boy!?"

Within one of Wolfwater's several mines. "I think this should be enough for today, Mr. Abe." Pickaxe on her shoulder, face covered in dust, this was Grace a young but rather tall looking woman with long dark hair and big purple eyes, wearing a black, sleeveless top and long dark pants. "I also promised my mom i would help her with the crops." The gentleman that was being referred to as Mr. Abe was an older fellow looking to be around his fifties, also carrying a pickaxe. "Don't worry girl, if it weren't for you we would still be late for the next shipment, go and don't forget to say hello to your mother for me."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Abe." Looking around at the rest of the man Grace noticed that all of them looked pretty much finished, and glancing at the massive cart full of minerals she thought to herself "Mom can wait a little bit" And with that, placing her hands on the edge of the cart, her muscles began to swell as she slowly made her way out of the mine, with all the older miners standing with their mouths open at the display of strength.
