"Is there a sign out here that says 'Drowned bitches storage' that I missed somewhere?"<br/><br/>So what if the Cult ship that Branwen's group attacked was actually the ship that was already attacking Evayla's ship, and even though it wasn't a trap specifically for them, somehow it ends up with a big explosion. Maybe the cult leader used the artifact, maybe he just cast a powerful spell to cover his escape, maybe an angry dragon just showed up and no one noticed. Regardless of the cause, explosion, only those two survived to wash up on the beach.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Hmmm... how about this:<br/>The ship Branwen and her fellows waylayed was actually Evayla's pirate ship, as they had caught wind of the transported artifact on board and thought it was likely a cultist ship.  Whilst the two tried to sort out the matter, the real cultists attacked in ambush.  Perhaps, not to have them on such an antagonistic start, Branwen and her group were actually doing recon on the ship - row out from their main ship in a row boat and climb up the sides, with no one knowing they were - only to realise that it was very likely not a cultist boat and just a bunch of jolly pirates.  Whilst pondering their next move, the real cultist sailed in and attacked to seize the artifact on board Evayla's ship.  Branwen's fellows sailed in hoping to rescue Branwen and the others (and thus leading Evayla to see them in a friendly light as a rescue attempt), but there were simply too many enemy vessels.
