Thorgan was up on deck examing the ship. He had been on the river ships which was nothing like the Wing Ship. They were all built for utility and nothing graceful or decrotive about them. But the Elven ship was graceful and beautiful. He watched the crew go about their work. He had his sea legs as they were called. He didn't get sea sick and he could keep his balance well He stood at the railing of the Port side of the ship and watched the water rush by as the ship plowed through it. When Allassiel came up on deck and stood at the rail, he moved over to her and wrapped his arms about her. "How is she?" He asked. He had seen the look on Pegawen's face when they boarded and then her sudden departure from deck. Not everyone was made for the sea. He enjoyed it but he enjoyed being on land more. He didn't have the sea in his blood as Ellyah and his crew did. He could see it in their faces and the way they moved about the ship. They would rather be out on the sea then on land.<br/><br/>The breeze was warm, they were in the southern part of the known world. The weather was warm and sunny most of the time. At the moment the sea was calm and the ship moved effortlessly through it. The smell of the salty water filled the air, it was fresh and clean. Thorgan leaned in and kissed Allassiel on her neck as he held her in his arms. "Out here it seems like an entirely different world." he whispered. ""Peaceful and beautiful."<br/><br/>That was when the sailor in the crows nest yelled down, "Octa of the Starbord. Looks like a big one." Every one on deck grabbed long harpoon shaped spears and moved to the starboard side of the ship. Thorgan took Allassiel with him to look at the Sea Monster. All they could see was a number of long and huge tenticles rising out of the water and what looked to be the top of a head or something. It was a distance off but the crew was taking no chances. Where there was one monster others might be lurking below to try and eat the other one. The sea creature called an Octa had eight huge tenticals that could wrap around a ship and take it down, or grab crew members and place them in a huge beak like mouth.<br/><br/>Ellyah descended from the command deck and move up behind them. "Seems it has not noticed us. Has poor sight above water and uses it tenticles to feel around for things. However below the water it can see quite good and moves very fast. But where it be then its enemy will not be to far away. The great Dagger Teeth. Just as huge as the Oct but with rows upon rows of dagger sharp teeth in its maw. It can shread a man to pieces in one bite." he told them. Then he yelled out to watch out for the Dagger Teeth, and went back up to the command deck.
