The Curry is a caravel which is mainly used for trade with the islands in the southwestern sea. She provides the mainland with exotic spices and lumbers and is said to even trade with the legendary Island of Chefs. Due to the valuable freight and alluring odors, pirates from the southern seas are always a problem, and so the Curry is also armed, although only lightly. Her low draft allows her to explore coastal regions of unknown atolls without having to fear shoals, and her mobile rig grants her the necessary maneuverability to reach the small, primitive island ports which are often difficult to access. The Curry's golden yellow sails – an homage to both her home country and her name – are seen as a herald of exotic wonders and tasty food at Tinto's coastlines, and she is as well-liked as she is well-known.
