Sin growled lightly as her ship was mentioned. Odds were she already knew what happened and was just messing with her, or so she figured. "The bloody devil was taken. I'm getting it back." She stated firmly, the tone of her voice making it very clear she absolutely intended to get her ship back, no matter what it took.<br/><br/>(I imagine there will be some reply there, but for now, jumping ahead again... )<br/><br/><br/>Sin was surprised that, Valspan, of all people... Sure, people, whatever... Was reaching out to comfort her. His words were strange, and definitely deserved more explanation, did he mean he was reincarnated into what he is now, or was that just figurative, colorful language? Mostly though, she wanted to focus on one particular part. "Well, I have no intention of dying until I have my ship and my crew back, at the very least." She stated, just to make clear she had no intention of giving in any time soon, even if Valspan claimed it was an improvement.<br/><br/>"Valspan, what started your quest to 'catalog' everything?" Spectra then asked him. It certainly seemed like the right time to learn more about the mysterious creature's past and motivations.<br/><br/><br/>(Further still! After the ship is spotted. )<br/><br/>Sin and the group were coming close to the port of Isla Cruaso when she immediately spotted the large battle vessel floating near the dock. Her eyes went wide with desire. That was the sort of ship she could most definitely use to achieve her goals. The sloop they were currently on was descent, but not meant for battles or attacking another ship. The man o' war though, well, obviously that was a different story.<br/><br/>"We're taking that ship." She stated very clearly so that everyone would hear and see as she pointed to their target. Of course something that large would also have an appropriately large crew, which meant with their diminished numbers, there would be much preparation to do, and Seydon actually served as perfect inspiration for just how to distract said crew.<br/><br/>"I'll need to get into town, start spreading some rumors to keep the crew occupied. Seydon, Wiska, you two need to stay hidden, for now. If we can keep a water advantage a secret, it will help us with a surprise attack. Anyone sees a huge ass shark man walking around town, eyes are gonna be on the water so, you two, out of sight."<br/><br/>She then looked to Valspan. "Can you, fill your trunk with mud? I want Wiska to have as much ammunition as she needs when the attack begins, so if you can launch some up on the deck, that would be perfect." She briefly looked back to Wiska after talking about covering the deck with mud, "I expect it can be cleaned off as easily as it can be placed?" She asked with a slight glare, obviously implying she didn't want the ship to remain dirty once it was theirs, and expected Wiska to clear off said mud using her abilities.<br/><br/>She looked back to Valspan again, "You'll be another one of our surprises, you'll float over to the ship like driftwood, and take a position near the rudder to ensure they don't leave before we're ready, then when the attack begins, you sneak your way up to the deck and, enjoy the feast." She said with a devilish grin.<br/><br/>She then looked to Spectra and shook her head. "You're gonna do, what you're gonna do..." She sighed, causing the succubus to smile playfully in return. "Just TRY not to interfere."<br/><br/>"Oh Captain, of COURSE not. I know how important this is to you." Spectra stated, sitting back and smiling politely.<br/><br/>Sin scanned the shoreline for a decent spot to stop before they got too close to the actual pier, she spotted a little clearing which appeared to have a cave by it, a perfect spot to hide everyone until it was time.<br/><br/>They moored the sloop there and lowered the sails to make sure it wasn't too visible from the port.<br/><br/>After disembarking the ship Sin prepared to make her way into the town, but not before turning back to the group. "I'm serious, I NEED you all to stay hidden here. Once this mission is successful, we'll have our own huge battleship that you can explore all you want, but that doesn't happen if we lose our element of surprise, so give me time to get the crew distracted in town, then once evening comes and we know the ship is mostly unguarded, we make our move. We're going to need to take off quickly, otherwise we'll probably be overwhelmed, this time things need to go perfectly so just stay here, out of sight, until things are ready." She said, just to reiterate the importance of their remaining a secret until it was time to spring their trap on the unsuspecting ship and crew.<br/><br/>At least the group could hide out and make themselves comfortable in the little cave, what could possibly go wrong there right? Nothing, of course. Nothing at all, especially not something like finding out they were currently being watched by the eyes of The MIGHTY sorceress Melissandra!!! Of course not, that's WAAY too specific of a coincidence, forget it was even mentioned...<br/><br/>Moving on, Sin worked her way through the woods and across the beaches to get into town, having left most of her gear and clothing behind to ensure she didn't quite look like the pirate captain she was. Now it was time to begin her plan of distracting the crew, by discretely letting slip that she'd heard that a prince was currently at the port. Of course, said prince was travelling low-key so as to avoid any issues, but she knew, for a fact, that he was there and they could even verify with a truth-seer if they wanted to ensure she wasn't lying. Any pirate crew that would just up and leave before trying to take advantage of a literal prince's ransom just wouldn't be much of a pirate at all now, would they? So while the others hid out, Sin worked around the crew, disseminating the rumor of the prince in the port, all while learning more about the crew and ship, as well.
