DP Ship Info[]
(DP = Dutiful Passage)
- Dutiful Passage out of Solcintra Port on Liad (ship ID)
- Property of Clan Korval
- The premier Tree-and-Dragon Trade Ship and Korval's flagship
- Entered service in 1320
- Designed by Master Trader Petrella yos'Galan[1]
- Huge, well-maintained, with numerous cargo pods.
- A state reception room: "Carpet, vaulted ceiling, well-lit and spacious, with Terran and Liaden sized chairs and loungers in equal proportion, a podium, and a mural of an enormous tree in full growth with a winged dragon..."[2]
- The pet library includes fish, snakes, turtles, pidogs, gerblits, and norbears[1]
- weapons capable, if captain cares to unship them, as when First Speaker activates Plan B (Korval’s strategy) [3]
Trade Names[]
- “Trade Mark of Clan Korval, operating as Korval Trade, Tree-and-Dragon Family, Dragontree Ltd. NEW: Surebleak Clan Loop Unlimited. No Warnings are associated with this Mark” [says Bechimo][4]
“Passage” Flagships[]
Every Tree & Dragon Flagship has been christened Passage, possibly named in honor of Profitable Passage -- the premier Clan Alkia trade ship in the old universe (see Tor An yos'Galan Clan Alkia). [5] This list is prolly incomplete.
Quick Passage - The Ship of the Migration, Captain Cantra yos'Phelium, Pilot Tor An yos'Galan
- Lead ship of the Exodus “parade” from Old Solcintra; [6] originally a troop-carrier named Salkithin which the proto-Yxtrang military deeded to Jela, who bequeathed it to Cantra yos'Phelium[7]
- It’s now part of the cellars of Jelaza Kazone: “the very ship of the Migration long ago made into a library and shelter of last resort, wing-clipped and buried beneath the house that Cantra began“[8]
- Apparently, the ship beneath Jelaza Kazone is a secret, cuz Agent sig’Alda has it wrong: “Never in the memory of the longest Rememberer had any of Korval loosed a vessel of their own will, excepting, perhaps, the very ship of the Migration.” [9]
Felicitous Passage - built c. Standard Year 1143 [10]
Adamant Passage - Captain not stated, but Petrella yos'Galan began her career as cabin boy on Adamant Passage [11] and may have served as captain before the ship was retired in 1320.
Dutiful Passage - c 1320[12] Captain Petrella yos'Galan, Captain Er Thom yos'Galan, Captain Shan yos'Galan, Captain Priscilla Delacroix y Mendoza, cabin boy Gordon Arbuthnot, apprentice trader Padi yos'Galan
Generous Passage — carries Trader Gordon Arbuthnot to Tinsori Light [13](see Salvage Right ) - perhaps not a flagship?? there’s a story there.
