The bar seems nice

"I'll stick around here. Who knows, maybe I'll be able to convince some of the girls around here to come with us?"

Jean laughed and gave Tir a mock salute.

"Just remember that they are not professional whores. If they want to come with us they have to be useful, which means we don't pay them. They can have a cut of any profits we make, but that is between them and the captain."

"Leave it to me! I'll ask around a bit and see what I can find out about some of these girls and then I'll make my move."

After Jean had left with a few of the other guys, Tir made his way to the bar to talk to the bartender. Tir told the balding man behind the counter what he wanted and the man began explaining what he knew about each of the women.

"The blonde is named Sherri. She's in her late twenties and used to be a dancer in her younger days. I hears she still knows how to gyrate just right to drive a man crazy." The bartender gave a sly wink before he continued.

"The girl with dark hair is the daughter of a local merchant. her name's Carmin and she's only ninteen, but she's pretty wild. She's drunk everyone who challenged her under the table then used her winnings to buy the whole bar another round. Her father apparently doesn't know how bad she is though. Probably wouldn't like it either. I don't suggest trying to get her in the sack unless you have an iron clad stomach cause you'll have to beat her first."

At this point the bartender shot a glance over at the red head to make sure she couldn't hear him.

"That one though... She's a total mystery. never heard a thing about her and this is her first night coming here. Sorry but I don't think I can be of help with her."

The bartender filled a shot glass up and gave it to Tir.

"But if these don't intrerest you I might be able to help out. I have a niece that is driving me nuts. Her parents passed away and I was stuck with her. As her legal guardian until she turns twenty, I have a say in what she does. She's only eighteen and two more years of having her with me would be pure ****. I'm willing to part with her guardianship for what would have been her cut of any of your ship's profits. If you agree then I'll bring her out. How about it?"

Tir had to think about this. There were several women here that had caught his attention and it was possible he could get more than one of them. This last offer though was of a completely unknown girl. What would he do?
