A Knight at the Inn (1/3)
A/N: This three-part story is inspired by an old Vocal prompt where writers were asked to select 3 words from a word search to include within a piece.

There are as follows: Exile Stomach Panel Owner Institution Rider Remark Draw Summit Ambition When they appear - they are highlighted in bold. Enjoy!

Voyage of the Chevalier: Chapter 1 - A Nefarious Patron
The harbor of New Colverelle is a noisy place, by all consideration. Waves crash against the sea cliffs, roosting seagulls shout their cacophonies, and the unmistakable sound of steam and cog hiss and squeal as cargo is loaded and unloaded from myriad ships bound for the Serene Republic and her many colonies. Despite the unpleasant industrial sounds and smells, there was a bleak beauty about this particular day as the morning sun began its ascent over the horizon. The few resolute tropical plants clinging to life in this mechanized marvel drank the light greedily as the first whisps of black smoke escaped from their chimneys. Work starts early in the harbor, as Duncan Fourchette and his crew knew well.
