I'd like to eventually extend those lines to other cities that can be reached by the sea.
And also to add/improve on the carriage lines that can help people travel between cities on the mainland.
But, for that, I need good echoes for the journey. If you have already used a ship, you know what I'm asking for: echoes describing what you see during the journey, cities passed by, and so on.
There should be approximately 6 or 7 echoes for each journey, including the echo for leaving and the echo for arriving at the destination. And that should cover a trip between two relatively close-by cities (e.g. from Waterdeep to Baldurs Gate). Longer journeys might use more trips, or be composed of smaller parts (e.g. from Waterdeep to Westgate could be from Waterdeep to Berdusk first, then Berdusk to Westgate, with perhaps another stop on the road).
If you are interested in making one such set of echoes (you should then make two sets: one for each direction), please post below which one you would like to work on.An example, from Baldur's Gate to Alaron, though echoes with more information about what people could see and so on would be better.
Note that, in this case, there are sometimes several echoes: one for those inside the ship (no windows heh), one for those up on the ship's deck, and sometimes one for those on the docks. For carriages, there would be only one set of echoes (those in the carriage would be assumed to look through the windows), plus eventually a leaving/arriving echoes for those who stand in the city, near the carriage stop point.Code: Select all

Feel free to also suggest new shipping/carriage lines, indicating what cities they would pass by.
Once I have enough answer, I'll pick up the lines that will we added and add them.
Thanks for the contributions.
