[COR FB] Nobody to be found in Jameston

[Flavius Gratian]

When Lawliet was given command of the HMS Intrepid, he been ordered to pick up more crew, and in particular a boatswain. Arriving safely in the port after an uneventful journey, he sent his men to start looking fo the man in question, Mr Higgs. This seemingly simple task proved diffucult, however. He was nowhere to be found, and the general confousion caused by the recent race into Celestia's jungles did not help. After about a week searching they heard that Mr Higgs had apperantly been ordered to escort a diplomat in search of the local natives. To find more information, therefore, Lawliet and his midshipman Tom Swift went to the temporary diplomatic office.

"Yes, it's true that a Mr Higgs and a few drydocked sailors were sent with Mr Barlow into the interior", the clerk explained. "Unfortunately, I cannot help you further, since Mr Barlow has now been missing for over two months."

"You don't know anything else? Where they were headed? Maybe the governor has recieved some diplomatic correspondance?" Lawliet asked.

"Sadly, as far as I know, Governor Allcock is himself still missing in the jungle. This search buisness has really turned the entire town upside down. However, you might actually be what we need, Lieutenant. Mr Barlow's long disappearance has started to worry us, and we have been thinking of organising a rescue mission. We havn't been able to find many men willing to do the job, but since you're now here with a crew and marines I think you could do it. Since Mr Higgs will most likely be with Mr Barlow you would thus also achieve your own goal."

Lawliet thought about it for a minute and then said: "Well, considering nobody else is capable of doing anything else around here, I suppose that would be necessary. I will have to consult with my officers, but I expect we will leave in about a week's time."

And with that, another expedition was to be sent into the jungles of Celestia.

Here's an overview of the build:

And a closer look at the furniture:

I don't build that many interiors, so it was fun to try out a few pieces of furniture. And to do the inside of a building that I've already built.

Awesome looking build! I might have to copy some of that furniture design!

Quite a cosy looking interior, I like all the different furniture ideas. The curtains and flag on the wall add a lot. Well done!

As for the story: interesting. I am curious where this will go!

Great furniture, and very Corrish atmosphere for the whole scene. Nice work.

Thank you very much! Please, help yourself! It's not like I came up with everything to begin with.

Thank you! I'm pretty happy with the curtains myself, and flag was necessary as the wall just looked empty and dull otherwise.

As others have commented, some very good furniture on display here and I will probably be 'borrowing' some of those designs in the future! Some very well dressed minifigs as well! The jungles of Celestia must indeed be quite crowded at the moment!
