Bricksbypidy Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) The Adventures of Edmund Cooke | S01E03 'The Basement' We ended our story at Edmund Cooke's house: "You need an ocean-going vessel to make a voyage to these western reaches of the Great Northern Ocean!" replied Jim. Edmund looked at Alexandre. He gave a little nod and said, "I know the right person in Arlinsport for this job... His name is Parker." The story now continues...

He has seen many parts of the world and knows a lot about flora and fauna. No adventure is too crazy for him, no hunt is too dangerous for him! A few days later, Edmund and Bernard came to Alexandre's basement in his house in Arlinsport. Alexandre had a man cave in his house where he spent many hours devising strategies, preparing new expeditions, enjoying a good glass of whiskey or dusting off his trinkets. Alexandre was bent over the table. The table displayed an image of the map of the Northwest portion of the continent of Halos. Alexandre pointed with a stick at the white cross on the map. "Here," he said. "This is the area we're going to, the Kingdoms of the Great Raider. According to Jim Corbett, there should be polar bears. As I mentioned recently, I know someone who can build us a vessel to brave the Great Northern Ocean." "As I mentioned recently, I know someone who can build us a vessel to brave the Great Northern Ocean However, I recently spoke to the Arlinsport Harbor Master, who indicated that we have reached the maximum number of vessels in our fleet. We will have to pay an additional fee of 250 db to expand our fleet!" Edmund looked at Alexandre: "What do you think, are all these costs worth this expedition? A new vessel is already costing us a lot of money, and we haven't even left the harbor yet!". Alexandre shrugged: "I don't know, my friend, but sometimes an experience makes you happier than money..." Edmund nodded: "Okey, let's go! Arrange the extra contribution for our new vessel! We're going to Parker's Shipyard!" To be continued... --- Will not be licensed, because I've reached the maximum for this month. Build is made to increase my ship level from 10 to 35.

Bregir Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 I am absolutely loving this man-cave - I want one too! :D There are a number of excellent details, such as the treasure chest and the fireplace, but your table with an actual, recognisable map of Halos really steals the show! Quote
NOD Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 Interesting continuation of the story. A very nicely decorated man cave. The fireplace, table, chandelier, bookshelf under the stairs, clock and fine chairs are all beautifully done. Quote
Kai NRG Posted July 3, 2023 Posted July 3, 2023 I just love that map, really cool! Great floor pattern too. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted July 4, 2023 Posted July 4, 2023 Very fine scene. Did you use the dog from my Herlock Sholmes story? Quote
