Description summary:
Description varies based on 
Smuggled Airs.
| Smuggled Airs | Description |
|---|---|
| 1-25 | This captain delegates his administrative duties to a Nervous Bursar [...] When you explain that, in return for a small percentage of their haul, the entire crew may sleep in the Midnight Moon [..] he relinquishes the leviathan's share with relief. |
| 26-50 | "Do you have a bath? I would give a king's soul for a bath." You assure him that the inn has a tub, and a wayward devil hands over a clinking crate. "Better you than the apes." Amber eyes glitter in amusement. "Just." |
| 51-75 | A [...] Captain attempts to disguise the extent of his cargo by hiding barrels of roof-drip in the false walls of his dirigible. [...] these selfsame false walls were installed here at the Midnight Moon not two winters past. [...] the walls slosh when you lean on them. |
| 76-100 | A Scarred Smuggler nods in anticipation. "The Moon is welcome to its cut, friend. I'm in need of some hot food and a long sleep." His cargo [...] consists entirely of bones. Not of immediate use – but everything can be made to serve a purpose, with thought. |

Failure
"I owe you nothing!"
This captain […] as a smuggler, is […] violently […] opposed to such things as 'taxes' and 'filthy excisemen' […] the benefits of contributing […] are better received once the captain in question is being dangled over the empty air by his rapidly fraying collar.
