"M-m-m'lady..." stuttered the sailor, "do you need me to open the crate, because, uh, the constables seem to be on our tail already... Spotlights are shining outside m'lady, I-I think we ought to shove off-"
The sailor was cut-off by the crack of the crate being thrust open.
"My god..." said the cabin girl, "It's as wonderful as my father said it would be..." She paused to admire the righteous ax. "Alright cap'n, Let's sneak out of this floating rust bucket before the constables discover us here."
With the ax gripped tightly in her arms, the cabin girl and the captain used the cover of night to sneak out from the armada.

My second challenge of the month. Came out better than last month which is good, but I still want to get even better. Had tons of fun and am excited to improve.
