Jes steered as Kalinta and Darius rowed. Jes explained,<strong>" Eventually, we'll need to take a break and camp. However, camping is an iffy proposition, as both beasts and orcs tend to come down to the river.  Anything is liable to jump us."</strong><br/><br/>The party's boat came around a bend in the river to expose quite a sight.  Several trees had caught on a sandbar in the river during the night. Then a ship ran into the trees on the sandbar. The boat was jammed in amongst the trees. However, several crew members were amongst the trees attempting to cut away enough to free the ship.<br/><br/>The central part of Shade's nipple clamp pointed straight at the boat, while the clamps dug in even deeper, suggesting that whatever the group was looking for was on board the boat. Darius noticed that something had burnt portions of the ship. Likely, the ship had been in a fight. Jes cautioned them,<strong>"It's an Imperial War Barge. A crew of ten usually has two to three sections (20-30 people) of light infantry on board."</strong><br/><br/>The ship is stranded. The crew is working on getting it free of the trees and back onto the river.<br/><br/>Right now, no one on the ship has noticed the party, but that could change.
