______________________________________________________________<br>
<br>
<b>PORT BAX</b> --<br>
<br>
The last spike of known civilization in the lastlands if you can loosely call it that, It is the largest landmass for miles around, with clusters of islands the further west one goes. On what is affectionately known as "The Rock" the island is nothing but sand and mountains, and a few refuges for common birds and the predators that eat them. Seals, Sea lions and Sea Elephants lay thick on the rocky coasts, strewn with the skeletons of ships that were wrecked in storms or scuttled when previous attempts to pacify the godless isles had failed. The Port is a sprawling shanty town with a large drydock where all the wood is cracked and it looks like a multitude of ships have come to die. Around the Drydock is a small but exotic fish market, selling exotic fruits de mer for those brave enough to literally go as far as possible to find them, with a bazaar of odd shops around the border where spices and sugar and all manner of goods are hawked. The rest of the town are a mixture of old manor-houses that look centuries old, squatting among clumps of lean-tos, hovels, and soggy wooden structures catering to the adventurous, the foolish, and the damned. The Inns and Taverns are wild and cruel -- but cruelest of all is the great Muurdain fortress hewn from mountain rock which seems to both cast it's great shadow over the town just as it's twin lighthouses splash their light intermittently over the settlement as they light on the reefs and rocks beyond the shore. No-one knows who Governs Port Bax, but some say the Governor and the head of the guild of thieves are one in the same. Three housemen idle endlessly in front of the fortresses great steel doors, the bones of unbidden visitors piled on either side of the road.<br>
<br>
Your ships have come from far away to explore the untamed archipelagos -- To the last of the lastlands and the sea of islands beyond. You have a crude incomplete map you have assembled from rumors and bits of ancient charts. Your stocks are refilled, Food and water restored with some materials for building and repairs as needed.<br>
<br>
There are mercenaries in town, it seems -- their bragging and song and clattering coin just belying the tension of various rivals who with the wrong word or deed would be at each others throats.<br>
<br>
Some actions you can take in Port Bax: (or anything else you can think of)<br>
<br>
1) Trade wealth for goods, spice, sugar, tobacco, Furs and skins. (units traded on a 1 wealth to 1 unit basis)<br>
2) Visit the Drydock -- Nobody needs repairs at the start of our story, but they do sell Ship upgrades for 3 wealth each.<br>
3) Carouse in the Inns and Taverns -- where you might pick up some interesting rumors or even some useful info.<br>
4) Visit the Gunnery -- for 1 wealth you can buy up to your full compliment of cannons (your ship is only half stocked at the start of your adventure) -- Goblins, Gnomes and Dwarves also have shops here that sell a variety of additional weapons and tools.<br>
5) You can SET A COURSE to any island in a nearby cluster of islands, and declaring your actions/intentions on arrival. Alternatively you can GATHER INTEL on a nearby island before you set a course there.<br>
6) Ready for a challenge? Seek the truth behind the TALES OF SMUGGLERS SHIV...<br>
___________________________<br>
<br>
<b>GREY MAIDENS --</b><br>
<br>
Warm and humid and wet and windy, the outlaw town of Grey Maidens is so named for the two massive peaks that dwarf everything else on the island. Jaunty music plays under the gloomy overcast, as if the free spirit of the community existed in defiance of the crashing waves, schools of sharks, plagues of crabs and ever present stinging insects.<br>
<br>
The Town of Grey Maidens sits in the lap of a deep forest lined with cairns of rock and signs warning the foolish not to tread in the ancient wood. Old witches have a circle of wagons in the clearing between the wood and the town, offering to trade magic lore with fellow casters, or to read the fortunes of newcomers with Harrow Cards -- the notorious deck of blessings and curses.<br>
A slick ship-refitter mounts a wooden and iron platform at the edge of the docks, selling cannons, ship upgrades, and repairs for one's vessel. In the center of town a great orc pavilion made of tanned leathers holds an arena where one can bet or compete on duels or great melees.<br>
Split almost right down the middle is a "good side" and "bad side" of town -- the "good side" with patches of green and brown grass, and the oldest houses of retired privateers, freeboaters, and a variety of robbers-come-legitimate with their own army of goons to keep out the bad element.<br>
<br>
On the bad side of town the grass is black or utterly absent -- and the areas close to the water are constantly encroached by giant sea urchins, most the size of a human head, but some so large their skeletons have been converted into houses for the poorest and strangest folk. Gangs rove the darker parts of town, often colliding with predictable results. In the center of town is the giant statue of a praying mantis, nearly 8 foot tall standing most oddly without a base or plaque of any kind.<br>
<br>
Some actions you can take in grey maidens (or anything else you can think of):<br>
<br>
1) Have your Harrow Deck read -- what does the future hold, are you blessed or cursed?<br>
2) Trade Magical Lore with the witches -- what can your casters learn/teach the coven, and what is it worth?<br>
3) Carouse in the Inns and Taverns -- where you might pick up some interesting rumors or even some useful info.<br>
4) Visit the Arena -- Stake any number of crew in the great melees, or pit a hero or trooper in the duels!<br>
5) You can SET A COURSE to any island in a nearby cluster of islands, and declaring your actions/intentions on arrival. Alternatively you can GATHER INTEL on a nearby island before you set a course there.<br>
6) Ready for a challenge? Seek the truth behind the TALES OF SMUGGLERS SHIV...<br>
________________<br>
<br>
NATIVE ISLAND(s):<br>
<br>
1) You can SET A COURSE to any island in a nearby cluster of islands, and declaring your actions/intentions on arrival. Alternatively you can GATHER INTEL on a nearby island before you set a course there.<br>
<br>
2) Survey your island, or declare any other actions you might think fruitful...<br>
<br>
______________________________<br>
<br>
EVERYONE:<br>
<br>
Remember -- you have a Free move every turn if you desire, but only 1-2 actions to take where you are (or where you will end up) While there shouldn't be much to do with other players on the first turn, you can make deals and trades with other ventures who are in port with you...<br>
<br>
THE HIGH SEAS AWAIT! DECLARE YOUR ACTIONS PLAYERS, AND MAY THE SEA NOT TAKE YOU EASY OR CHEAP!!!! <img src="https://www.rpnation.com/media/emoticon5-heart.23727/full?d=1488657999" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt="<3" title="heart    <3" data-shortname="<3"><br>

The town of Grey Maidens bustled that evening with the two sides bickering and folks moving for their business. Most of the guild stayed on the Genie as Captain Marge and Zerah explored the port before setting off into the islands. Captain Marge gleefully stepped to and fro as if playing hopscotch with a small flask of rum in her left hand. Her hair was orange with strands of ice blue. She curled her fingers in, making rum cubes, frozen solid. She flicked the cubes at nearby men who would attempt to flirt with her. Zerah walked cautiously beside her, not that he concerned himself with her dexterity, but with the crowd around them. The guild quietly dismissed the Muuradaan for their... everything, but the guild was a force of good and reverence for the world. Zerah clinched his fist thinking what could happen to these islands and he glowed slightly. The tarps and stalls of the merchants called out to the pair, mostly for Marge's looks, but Zerah could probably dazzle a couple of them too. Marge's permafrost, never melting, cloak spread purifying snow light, gathering attention for the pure oddity it was. The crowds of the port spoke of a coven of witches to the woods. Marge looked at Zerah as their spirits materialized with them. Sevastian and Gocjekt stood in the town center with the statue of the praying mantis.<br>
<br>
Sevastian looked at Zerah and Captain Marge both, "This place is strange, but I do remember something looking like these spires. I digress. We should discuss with the witches what they know. They could know something valuable for us."<br>
<br>
Zerah adjusted his tunic, he took off his traditional garb, "Hmmm, I suppose. I rather not tavern dive, so let's ask them what they will impart onto us. Captain Marge? Gocjekt?" Gocjekt shrugged his shoulders and Marge nodded with a gleeful jump. "Well, that was easy. I suppose Lavkin or Ros isn't here. That explains the agreeability. Let's pick their minds for some magical prowess. I'm sure between your ancient arts, your ancient legend trick, and our adventuring knowledge; we will get a lot."<br>

Captain Marge flew through the air on a rope, landing on the deck. "Welcome everyone! We are here at our first destination. And for those sly little shits who doubted me, where you at now?"<br>
<br>
Scouts quickly left the ship as it anchored in the water. Here we go.<br>

Expert fishermen and sailors, they are nonetheless somewhat out of place in the tropical archipelagos so far from home. That said they are happy and dedicated people, and their faith can, with enough voices, bring their aforementioned Totem animals to aid them. <br>
<br>
<b>The Springborn (2 points) –</b> young elves just learning their first martial skills and arts, their low cost belies their expert archery, though they are only decent in melee, preferring to fall back or flee rather than die on the field. "Elven blood is too expensive to trade for anything less" is a popular springborn saying. Cautious. Double-firing.<br>
<br>
<b>The Summerborn (5 points) –</b> adult elves who are elite warriors and archers, as well as every five Summerborn form a "Frond" that practices a certain Art, Trade or specialty. They are GREAT at motivating lesser troops. Light-Heavy Armor (made of vines and wood), Chain Reaction (missiles can hit 1d4 targets), Disciplined. Although willing to die for the cause, their losses are mourned by all elves.<br>
(losses may effect morale)<br>
<br>
<b>The Autumnborn (8 points) –</b> Putting down their weapons to lead with oratory, performance and intellect, the Autumnborn Lay down their arms to masters arts and trades. Each One is granted two expertise/specialties, determined at purchase. All are consummate diplomats and arcanists (losses WILL effect morale) -- (pick one sphere at 4, or two spheres at 3 -- 2 specialties) -- "Noncombatant" descriptor. Leader/expert unit.<br>
<br>
<b>The Winterborn (10 points) –</b> Having mastered their arts and the ways of fighting, strategy, and the sword, each winterborn is a hero in their own right. With centuries of practice, everything they do is masterful and of preternatural grace. They have one chosen specialty each (a "mastery") and two spheres at 4 -- though ALL winterborn use the same magic in the venture. (pick 2 spheres at 4 -- 1 mastery) "Tireless", "Point-blank shot", "Withering Fire", "Tandem fighting" descriptors. The loss of a winterborn is a true loss to all elvenkind, and their lives should be risked sparingly or not at all. If they must die, it must be worth it, and even then there may be a reckoning.</span></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445257" style="display: none;"><b>The Enchantress</b> <br>

<br>
<span class="bbcode-justify">Prince Airdan felt the boulders of Grey Maiden looming over him. The island’s cursed woods, danger infested waters, plague ridden streets, and insistent insects discouraged Airdan’s intrigue. Even the overcast weather dampened his mood. He paced the short length of the dock in boredom and listened to the seagulls screech from above. The group of old women in town caught his interest again. He had been observing their strange practices ever since he arrived on the island- just another stepping stone in his journey towards Clavenshire. One of the women noticed him staring this time and locked eyes with him. Her dull, blue gaze beckoned him to approach. This was going to be interesting.<br>
<br>
“Hmm,” the woman with the blue gaze mused. “I never noticed the color of your eyes before. They’re like gold. What brings you here, tall one?”<br>
<br>
“I am Prince Airdan of the Fair Isles,” he introduced in a gentle tone. “My journey to Grey Maiden is short. I will be continuing my journey soon to reunite with my fiancée.”<br>
<br>
“Hmm,” the woman sighed again. “The good ones are always taken. This reunion is important to you, hmm?”<br>
<br>
“Yes, it is.” The Prince’s reply was curt.<br>
<br>
“Hmm, then what is it that brings your attention to us?” she blinked, perhaps for the first time.<br>
<br>
“It’s your magic,” the Prince’s voice filled with light excitement and youth.  “I don’t get to see it used away from my homeland.” The woman mused as she did, for longer than what seemed usual, then prompted the prince to display his abilities. His golden eyes looked up at the overcast skies again and filled him with disappointment. A simple trick would have to do. His hands danced around each other and created tiny fractals of yellow light. The movements swirled, were smooth, and elegant. Aromatic, purple buds formed around groups of stems and branches while small patches of grass sprouted from the ground beneath him. Standing where he stood, the prince offered the fresh flora that appeared from his power.<br>
<br>
“It’s lavender,” he whispered to the woman when a silent pause took over.<br>

"Peggy, we've arrived to Port Brax and it is not right, I tell you what. People just standing around in 'shanty towns', stealing and lying, just makes no sense, why try to steal and do illegal things when you could be smoking tobacco and earning an honest living? You wouldn't believe what it was like in the warehouse, I handed them my papers to get my cargo of tobacco and they had them laid out on their sides. On their sides, Peggy! It was as if they wanted the tobacco to get mold, the TGTC logo flush right against the ground and I swore I heard rats. I haven't been so mad since I had to sit through Bobby's puppet show on 'safe intercourse'. If you're going to run a warehouse, then you gotta run it right. No one takes pride in their work out here but that don't mean they don't deserve to experience the clean burning, smooth taste of Tavarian tobacco. <br>
<br>
I think Strictland may have 'misplaced' the funding again. <i>The Ladybird </i>is missing half her guns and the varnish is barely on there anymore. I had hoped to get out to port and doing my job, but I can't in good conscious take her out when she isn't ready. That would be downright irresponsible, if tobacco is to be carried on these waves, then it's got to be carried right, cradled in the loving embrace of <i>The Ladybird</i> in tip-top shape. <br>
<br>
I write you now with romantic intent, I think of you nightly as you are a handsome woman. <br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Your Husband, <br>
Captain Henry 'Hank' Williams, Captain of The Ladybird, seller of Tobacco and Tobacco Accessories" </span></span>​</div><br>

<br>
Hank stood on the ship deck, a lit pipe tucked at the corner of his mouth as a stream of smoke lazily floated in the air, he stood with his arms behind his back, his hands tightly gripped one another as he watched his employees work. He watched them use the cranes to life the new cannons on the ship, as they scrubbed, cleaned and varnished the ship, as barrels of tobacco was carried up the gangplank and onto the ship to be stashed below deck in the cargo hold. He winced each and every time he saw one of the Blackburners scrub the deck in rows instead of clockwise, he gnawed the pipe in his mouth as he saw the cannons be lowered too fast and hit<i> The Ladybird </i>with a loud *thud* that echoed in his bones, they were new, they'd get the hang of it. He just had to-<br>
<br>
"Hey!" Hank roared as he leaned over the rail as a large 'Shovel Knight', by the name of Mills, was carrying a tobacco barrel underslung under one arm, "Two hands! Two hands," he said as he held out his two hands in front of him to demonstrate. Mills looked around for a bit as if trying to find who Hank was talking about before it finally dawned on him, the mountain of a man looked at his captain for a few moments and started to try and walk again, content to try and ignore him.<br>
<br>
"Boy if you don't use both those hands, you'll be using them to cover your ass because I'm going to be kicking it," Hank yelled, veins on his forehead pulsed as his beard flowed in the wind and smoke bellowed out of his nose. The large Mills quickly moved the tobacco barrel in front of him and gripped it with both, cradling the barrel as if it was a newborn babe, as was right and proper, his head low under the withering glare of his captain.<br>
<br>
"You sure told him, captain," An almost nasally voice said which made the captain nearly jump out of his skin.<br>
<br>
"Damn it, Rusty, can't just sneak up on me like that, why aren't you working?" He demanded as he glared at the shirt rail thin man who was sipping on a tankard of what Hank could only assume was grog.<br>
<br>
"I did, I scoured this ship top to bottom," 'Rusty' said as he took a small sip, "I heard that the Muurdain may be seeking to plant explosives on our boat to use against the bug people, we get close and boom! <i>Ladybird </i>gets blown sky high and the tobacco smoke goes everywhere. The bug people are allergic to smoke and they'd fight and kill each other, and in the power vacuum that exist, a bug person mole will rise to the throne and give the island over to them. But their plans won't work so long as I am here," he said his voice almost fevered in his belief.<br>
<br>
Hank took a long puff on his pipe to calm the bubbling anger that was slowly rising to the surface, "That is asinine. There isn't any bug people and the Muurdain aren't planting bombs on our ship."<br>
<br>
"Not anymore they aren't," Rusty said as he took another sip, "You're welcome."<br>
<br>
Hank let out a heavy sigh as he pushed his hat up a bit to rub his leather fingers across his forehead.<br>
<br>
"Captain!" <br>
<br>
Hank turned to look behind him as a balding, heavy weight fellow ran... Or, waddled up the stairs, "What is now, Bill?"<br>
<br>
Bill paused at the top and leaned over as he drew in deep, ragged breaths, two tankards were in his hands and despite his ponderous waddle 'run', not an ounce had spilt, "Captain, we're out of pickles! I don't know what happened, I was preparing supper and so I thought maybe I should try one, and then I tried another.. then I got afraid that you'd get mad at me so I tried a few more.."<br>
<br>
"Damnit Bill, how did you eat all of them already?" Hank asked equally as annoyed as he was bewildered.<br>
<br>
"I eat when I'm stressed! And afraid. And worried. And sad.." Bill said as his shoulders slumped.<br>
<br>
"Not his fault, Captain, Bill has always been useless. Only thing he's good for is taking up space and making me look good when I stand next to him," Rusty said as lifted a rolled cigarette to his mouth and gave a long puff, "Some people just can't be helped."<br>
<br>
"It's true," Bill said as he looked down at his feet, "B-But I brought you some grog, captain!" He said with a large smile as he handed Hank the extra tankard he had.<br>
<br>
"Thanks Bill," Hank said as he took the pipe from his mouth to take a long sip of grog, letting the frothy liquid roll down his throat. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment, standing on his ship, pipe full of tobacco in one hand, grog in the other, it was almost perfect. He opened his eyes to look at Bill and Rusty. Almost perfect. <br>
<br>
<i>"Hey-Captain-I-tell-you-what-you-know-I've-been-thinking-bout-lodin'-up-that-there-dang-ol-tobacco-and-I-dunno-lift-with-your-knees-man-hup-hup-hup-them-boys-be-lodin'-with-their-backs-I-yap-at-them-24-hours-a-day-make-no-difference," </i>A rapid fire voice said, the words spoken so fast they almost blurred together and some of the words just didn't make sense. <br>
<br>
"Well, that can happen," Hank said as he took a long pull on his pipe, honestly, he didn't have a single idea as to what First Mate Boom just said, but he was sure it was right and profound. </span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">The tall, althetlic blond man lifted his own tankard of grog to his lips and took a sip as he joined the other three men at the rail, watching the line of Tavarian Greater Tobacco Company employees working like ants, a well-oiled machine. None of them had to really say a word, they were professionals who worked hard because the job deserved to be done </span><i><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">right</span></span></i><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">. </span><span style="font-size: 15px"><br>

<span style="font-size: 12px">Tian stood on the bow of the Shenlong gazing at the port-town and the towering Muurdaan fortress. Scholar Song Hui approached from behind him and followed the Crown Prince's gaze. For a few minutes there was silence until it was broken when the esteemed scholar spoke, "Your Highness, we will begin gathering information on possible places to colonize."<br>
<br>
"For now, we don't have the time and resources to spare to meddle in the politics of Bax. We are newcomers and we have a far more important task to carry on. Perhaps in the future, we will return and establish ourselves here, but not now. Focus on Lavaslate, I have a feeling what we're looking for might be there." Tian replied, guessing the scholar's questions. <br>
<br>
"As you wish, Your Highness. Please excuse this scholar." Song Hui bowed at Tian before leaving with the rest of the Scholars and Taskmasters. A fourth of the Empyrean Corps followed them to serve as protection against anyone in the port that would do them harm. <br>
<br>
The Prince then turned his attention to the rest of the ships on the dock. He recognized the flags on some of them although he never really interacted much with their factions back in the mainland. He snorted at the thought that they may pose a problem to their interest in the archipelago. If they do get in the way of the Empire, he will crush them. </span><br>​</div><br>

The Grand Venture moved along the waves with a clear purpose as it positioned itself to set in for port. The moment its gangplanks came down, the Wretched spilled forth to carry out tasks and enjoy some time in the  last port of the region. They moved seemingly in disorder, but the various mobs had richer dressed, more proven Pazai leading them here and there to tend to jobs.<br>
<br>
Julian Pazai watched his crew disembark as the strong figure of his wife, Galza, stood to the side to watch with him. The pair seemed a curious contrast, Julian being pale and overdressed with his urbane attitude while Galza was dark with her own fine clothing more practical for one of the most skilled Pazai aboard the vessel. She kept order aboard  their ship quite well, leaving Julian to scheme and plan for their venture. Something he expressed gratitude for often considering what they were about to set forth to do.<br>
<br>
"So, what do you think of our contract?" Julian mused as he took up a goblet to sip from it thoughtfully.<br>
<br>
"I think we're going to be in for a hell of a ride, but war prizes are something that could make this venture some serious wealth if we can meet the Count's food demands," Galza said as she moves to stand more firmly by her husband. The pair seemed to suit one another, filling different roles and strengths. It seemed almost apparent just from looking at them even in this situation.<br>
<br>
"Perhaps, but then again this was going to be a tough area no matter what we chose to do. Our patron ensures we have backing  and support so long as we're good and do as desired. Plenty of room in those orders to see to our own needs within reason. Coin will flow as we ship food and the Pazai can forge holdings of their own out here. Let the great powers scrabble and squabble, they'll still need us. They always have," Julian mused with a dark smile of satisfaction as he took another drink from his goblet.<br>
<br>
"True, I've got the gangs out getting the weapons and stock we need to fully arm up. The Grey have taken up some to go out and dig up information as well," Galza stated as she looks out at Port Brax with other vessels docked, arriving or leaving. "Such a mad rush.  We're going to make a fortune here."<br>
<br>
"I'll drink to that," Julian mused and downed the rest of his goblet, a trickle of red cross his cheek before he dabbed it away with a handkerchief that quickly vanished back into a pocket.  The pair moving to join the others  in seeking information while guards were left behind to keep the ship ready for action.​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center">Actions<br>
1. Visit the Gunnery and fully stock cannons/powder (1 Wealth)<br>
Julian has issued orders to fully arm the ship in preparation to better defend the ship and its venture.<br>
<br>
2.Carouse the Inns and Taverns<br>
The various clusters of Pazai have gone forth to seek out anything useful to know about the area while the ship is being fully armed.​</div></div>

From the beaches, a group of seals looked up from their leisurely sun nap on a large, flat rock. With curious gazes, they looked at what seemed to be a coastal barque slowly approaching the harbor of Port Bax. The ship flew a blue flag, bearing the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Attolia. Though moments later, the seals would go back to their normal lax leisure, becoming bored of the slowly moving ship in the distance. Within the ship, a well dressed Captain sat in the Captain's quarters, though a bit cramped as ten other Attolian... nobles? and a generous library stuffed with books were all standing in the room as well. The nobles were hurriedly skimming through several books from the library, brushing up on etiquette and how to blend in better with the locals in the Port, though in complete silence.<br>
<br>
As the ship approached the port, the Captain suddenly stood up and spoke out loud "What a grand ol' time, eh gentlemen? Let us prepare to disembark and socialize with the residents of this quaint settlement. Prepare the honor guard!" In a flash of flurry, the Captain's quarters quickly emptied itself as the nobles left the quarters and headed up to the deck. The ship made it's final approach to the port. On the deck the totally normal nobles lined up, prepared to walk on the gangway and onto the docks. Behind them were the Kuo Toa priests with various instruments in their hand. However, as the ship approached, some sort of percussive instrument began playing.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span data-s9e-mediaembed="youtube"><span><span style="background:url(https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hLkez3oL6s4/hqdefault.jpg) 50% 50% / cover" data-s9e-mediaembed-iframe="[&quot;allowfullscreen&quot;,&quot;&quot;,&quot;scrolling&quot;,&quot;no&quot;,&quot;style&quot;,&quot;background:url(https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/hLkez3oL6s4\/hqdefault.jpg) 50% 50% \/ cover&quot;,&quot;src&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hLkez3oL6s4&quot;]"></span></span></span>​</div><br>
<br>
Soon, a marching song began to play, but unlike the regal and pompous songs typically heard in such occasions, this song seemed a bit more... childish? Joyful? Regardless, it was an odd scene on that day at Port Bax as the Mayflower made landfall. The gangway touched the dock and in unison the nobles marched off the ship. From there they dispersed to begin establishing contact with the locals to leave their mark and begin gathering information and rumors that may be abound.<br>
<br>

Summary:<br>
<br>
1. The Totally Normal People and the First Captain begin socializing with the residents of Port Bax to establish relationships and gather information with guidance from the Bookcases and their expertise<br>
<br>
Move towards Island E in the Oyster Isle Cluster<br>
<br>
2. Exploration and scouting of Island E</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div class="bbcode-background" style="background-color: transparent; max-width: 550px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 0; color: currentcolor;;"><div class="bbcode-background-text">Lady Victoria Varna’s ship gently coasted into port amongst the other explorers, a slick and elegant runner pinnace bearing the icons of the richest noble family in Muurdaan. Not that it was HER family, mind you, but it was her money. She worked hard for it, putting that shriveled carrot in her – <i>anyways</i>.<br>
<br>
The red-haired consort sat back in her cushioned chair, a bodyguard to either side of her. From the deck, she watched a handful of her sailors headed into the town of Port Bax with their orders. Sprinkled among them, of course, were a few of her Kithless. If there were any trouble this early on – and she doubted there would be – there would be little resistance.<br>
<br>
“Grape,” she demanded, and the guard on her right held out a small vine of fresh red grapes for her to snack on.<br>
<br>
“Fan.” The left-hand guard fanned her with an enormous and frankly ridiculous collection of fronds. Victoria had noticed that mortals tended to sweat in this climate. As a devil, she felt perfectly comfortable in the midst of fire and flames. However, a disguise was a disguise, and if the mortals were bothered by the heat than so was she.<br>
<br>
She glanced up at the sky as it clouded over, and shot a nasty glare at her navigator, Oriax, otherwise known as... Oh. Hmm. She overlooked a name for him. Or... Orlando. Oar-land-o if he was obnoxious. The disguised fiend rolled his eyes but did not react otherwise. It wasn’t his fault the weather changed without warning, nor his fault that <i>someone</i> had such as stick up her ass.<br>

<b><span style="font-size: 22px"><span style="font-family: 'gabriola';">WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS</span></span></b>​</div><hr><br>
<div style="text-align: center">The Circus Grounds - Just Outside of Fort Baxter<br>
<br>
"Welcome, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome one and all to the greatest show you will ever see!" Terren launched arcing explosions of light from either side of his spread arms, twisting in a circle to face the entire crowd. "Tonight we have a special treat for you! As you all know entrance tonight was free since this is our last show before we depart! As such, I have convinced our resident masters of the waters to show off their own abilities! Everyone give it up, for Vapos the elemental!"<br>
<br>
Terren moved off to the side, quickly summoning to mind the illusion that he would need to introduce the so called elemental, all the while doing his best to keep from smirking about his deception. Before the crowd appeared a flowing shape made of water which began to launch out explosions of water which seemed to flow back into the elemental itself. 'The circus must be eager for us to head out if its having me use water, this is far from my most useful set of abilities and illusions. Oh well, everyone else knows their part to play within the water shows!'<br>
<br>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
"Excellent final show lads, make sure everything is packed up tomorrow and we can set off as soon as all our business is done in town. And I better not hear of anyone slacking off in the taverns until all the work is done or they will have hell to pay!" As the carnies and other members of the company laughed and began to drift off pushing each other around and making crude jokes the Mystic turned to his second in command and waved him into his tent. "Corven, I want you to go to the gunnery in town tomorrow and make sure the ship is stocked up on cannons. I don't want to wind up dead to early after all. I'll be heading into town to see what kind of intel I can get about some of the surrounding isles after I put my work in for the day so don't be surprised if I'm still gone when you get back."<br>
<br>
"It shall be done captain, now if you excuse me I need to go see the healers. Beron is still having trouble catching me and I was nearly injured during the show earlier," The exotic looking elf bowed before turning to leave, limping as he exited the tent.<br>
<br>
'Damnit, though I had him convinced to stop showing up if he was hurt! Blasted idiot,' the mystic sighed before blowing out his own lantern, the magic he had used all throughout the show leaving him drained.​</div><hr><br>

<br>
<b><u>6 Months Ago</u></b><br>
<br>
Captain Dagget Daggerson was a goblin of many talents, though most of those talents revolved around killing his enemies. He was, after all, a hero among goblins, a veteran of many campaigns and a surprisingly good tactician during battle. This last fact had even earned him allies among the Goblin-Hobbes, a group of warminded goblin types that specialized in using the best arms and armor that they could scrounge up from their enemies. Having them on his side would make his next venture a major success, at least that was the thought that went through his mind as he walked up to the tent of the leader of this small group of Goblin-Hobbes.<br>
<br>
Two gobin-hobbes wearing chain mail with short swords at their hips guarded the tent and eyed the goblin that wore a red and white shirt with gold accents, a tricorner hat, a monocle and a gold key as an earring. <br>
<br>
Giving a respectful bow, Daggerson spoke up, making sure to enunciate each and every word at the two guards. "I have come to speak with Krognak the Bold"<br>
<br>
They gave a grunt of acknowledgement as one went inside to tell their boss. Daggerson meanwhile began to tap his key earring as though he were a kitty cat craving attention from something shiny that glowed brightly.<br>
<br>
Only a few moments passed before the guard came out. "The boss says he's ready for you."<br>
<br>
"Thank ye kindly, my friends." With a tip of the hat, he went through the tent flap to see a Goblin-Hobbe wearing half plate and using his fingernail to pick out a particularly stuck piece of meat from between his teeth.<br>
<br>
"Come in Dagget Daggerson. I have heard much about your exploits. Most surprising for a goblin." He flicked away the piece of meat and gave a wide, toothy grin.  "You've caught my eye, especially since you've come to my small band of elite warriors. What say you?"<br>
<br>
Dagget puffed up his chest and gave a wide toothy grin of his own. "Well, ye see, I've heard just how powerful and ruthless your small band of raiders could be and I have been wanting to propose a venture that can make us all rich beyond our wildest dreams."<br>
<br>
Krognak's left eye twitched as he tried to keep his emotions in check. After all, a goblin was not prone to exaggerate when there was money to be gained. Exaggerate about their prowess on the field of battle, or about how many women they have bedded, or even about the sanctity of a truce, but certainly not the gaining of coin. If there was one thing they could count on, it was truthfulness in that matter.<br>
<br>
"Go on, young Dagget, please continue." Krognak had leaned forward in his wooden throne.<br>
<br>
"I plan to build the biggest and most extravagant port town that will rival any in all the uncharted archipelago. And of course should you join up now, you and your kin will not only get in on the ground floor, but get a bigger share of the profits. I ain't  beholden to any large countries or corporate entities. I'm my own goblin, making my own money. So you can either take this deal or leave it. If not, I can look up some other Goblin-Hobbes that'll take the deal."<br>
<br>
Daggerson placed his arms across his chest, giving a smirk. He didn't really have anywhere else to go should they turn him down, but he hoped that Krognak would see reason. He tried his best not to show his worry.<br>
<br>
Krognak seemed to be nodding his head as he thought over this deal. On the one hand, it was a risky venture, going it alone to build a port town, but on the other side, they wouldn't have to answer to anyone else other than themselves. And he would get more coin than anyone else being in on the ground floor.<br>
<br>
The Goblin-Hobbe stood up and walked over to Daggerson who gave a pronounced gulp. Perhaps this was where he met his end after all his planning to become the richest goblin in the world from running the biggest and best port town in the most unexplored location on the waters. The man that had killed and fought and lived through countless battles. Would he meet his end here and now to a single Goblin-Hobbe?<br>
<br>
Krognak extended his hand and gave a hearty shake to Daggerson.<br>
<br>
"You have yourself a deal Dagget. Me and my band will join your cause."<br>
<br>
Daggerson breathed a sigh of relief as the threat of danger passed and he went back into work mode.<br>
<br>
"Great, great. You see, I'm already at the point of getting a hold of a nice ship to hold all my like minded friends......<br>
<br>

<b><u>The Grey Maidens<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1648472676487-png.971116/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/908/908246-10a5a28689ff9dfad25550f550b9e18b.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1648472676487.png" title="1648472676487.png" width="191" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></u></b><br>
<br>
The crew of The Golden Dagger unloaded after their trip to the Grey Maidens. The crays needed the time and the space to unwind from the trip. After being so focused by the wrenchmaces, they were a tad wound up. They were a wild bunch. All young idiots that had far too much energy bottled up inside and ready to explode at a moments notice. It made them good cannon fodder for the front lines, but not so great on the individual scale.<br>
<br>
Daggerson thought back on how he was among their number at one point in his life. He chuckled as it seemed more like a lifetime ago. It took him time, but he finally assembled enough wealth and crew and a ship to begin his journey to build the best port town that he could. Now, he just needed to find the best island to manage to do that with.<br>
<br>
He called forth Krognak the Bold, the Goblin-Hobbe that led his powerful Goblin-Hobbe troops.<br>
<br>
"Krognak, I need you to try to track down as much info as you can to help us on our journey. We can't afford to go into this blind or else the whole venture is lost before it has begun."<br>
<br>
A hearty hand placed on Daggerson's shoulder and a quick nod before Krognak motioned to a few of his men to accompany him to the taverns and inns for information.<br>
<br>
One of Daggerson's scouts came running back, wheezing and out of breath. After giving the man a few moments to recover, Dagget gave him a poke in the cheek with his bony finger.<br>
<br>
"Aye.....aye....Captain......they have an arena for fighting in. Just....what...the Crays....need."<br>
<br>
"Hmm. Perhaps that would be best for the Crays after all this time cooped up, but you know who else has been cooped up on this ship?<br>
<br>
Dagget Daggerson twirled around and held his hands on his hips.<br>
<br>
"ME!"<br>

Actions:<br>

Armsmaster Thorni and Zehra circled the wagons of the witches, looking down blink alleys blocked by sheets and flags and tapestries, ever searching for a door that remained elusive. So focused on this task were they that they didn't not notice the wagons circling them as well... and when they were completely hemmed in, All the windows opened and  a host of witches crawled, climbed, undulated and jumped from a myriad of windows and from behind drapes and under wagons.<br>
<br>
"Nature and Water is what you seek -- beyond your cantrips you must peek -- you come at a time of promise and change, so for samples of your skill we'll make exchange."<br>
<br>
Thorni and Zahra presented their cantrips, Zehra being careful not to reveal too much divine power, but it was doubtful they were hiding anything from the witches effectively. The eldest of the witches had runes of eyes on their foreheads and hands, and wisps of green and blue energy came away from the heroes every time the witches laid hands on them. Still, The witches did not want any specific knowledge from them per se, just a measure of their power and a taste of their manapools. Draining as it was -- The witches came forth with a wooden book with pages of unmelting ice in exchange for sampling their power... <br>
<br>
You have gained the spells of:<br>
<br>
Nature: Tangle Vines, Eagle Eye, Vine Arrow, Web, Healing<br>
Water: Resist Fire, Quicken Self, Cold Blast, Rain, Dessication<br>
<br>
(Your manapools are depleted, you may cast no spells this turn or next turn)<br>
<br>
________________<br>
<br>
The venture moves to RAVNICA'S SANDBOX -- the main island in a chain of mostly sandy, duneswept isles. Scouts are sent ashore and the coast is surveyed... <br>
<br>
A great but grey estate sits in a cove seemingly spared by the shifting dunes as a main point of interest. The ship approaches in mid-morning and the crew sees a tall elegant women, pale as a napkin, wave from her widow's walk on the manor. This must be Ravnica? but the estate is forlorn and bare, it's obvious once-imposing opulence now a withered husk in the pitiless sun.<br>
<br>
Besides the obvious large estate (it's croplands buried in sand) the island turns out to have three oases that glitter in the morning light. Shining copper weapons and bits of armor are turning various shades of green around the waterholes, among them rusted steel helms and swords lie scattered... and at each oasis scouts report seeing multiple bleached-bare skulls mounted on spikes nearby in rows... a red "X" painted on the forehead of each one...<br>
<br>
The men of the expedition are not too superstitious, despite their affinity with the supernatural -- but the soulshadows and guides tell a different story:<br>
<br>
"Something horrible has happened on this island, mayhap this entire cluster of islands. The dead speak here -- whispering caution, and warning, and grief..." <br>
<br>
For a moment a mirage passes between the boat and the island, and with it the stench of burning bodies and the distorted illusion of the entire island ablaze...</div>

Onboard the Perseverance, the leaders of the Cult's expedition stood over a map of the archipelago.<br>
<br>
Tyarra spelt, a scholar from Tigh-Taugh, did not appear to be a figure of authority at first glance. Simple leather clothing and a green tunic were hardly things someone who wanted to stand out from the crowd would wear. A large leather bag, usually seen at her side, laid under the table. On closer observation one could notice a pistol and several grenades around her belt, as well as a simple copper ring with the symbol of the Cult, though an unimpressive height, medium-length brown hair and only slightly darker than average in Tigh-Taugh skin would rarely draw enough attention for that to happen.<br>
<br>
Especially that usually, she would be seen with Telren Lumyar. A good head taller than Tyarra, her bright blonde hair is cut short, so as not to get in the way during a fight. Scale armour on top of a navy blue gambeson makes it rather clear that she is not one to shy away from a fight, further noticeable with her carrying a rapier and a buckler at all times. A silver chain around her neck with the symbol of Harmony signals Telren's allegiance to the Cult.<br>
<br>
"I'm not comfortable moving forward with such a limited amount of information." Tyarra stated "Oyster Isle does seem like a good place to start, but we'd do well to first gather some information."<br>
<br>
"We came here for a reason Tyarra." the noble argued "We won't do much good sitting in a port asking questions. And I rather doubt the locals will be able to tell us much. These lands aren't exactly well known."<br>
<br>
"Still, they've been living here a while. There have to be at least some rumours. And look, according to this map, someone used to live on that island. We should at least try and learn what happened to them, so we can prepare ourselves in case whatever drove these people off doesn't happen to us. Especially if we intend to create a base of operations there. And we have to stop by the settlement to resupply anyways. What harm could there be in spending some more time there gathering information?"<br>
<br>
"I suppose you do have a point." Telren conceded "We could also ask around, see if there are any mages around. I've been hearing rather interesting things about magic and artefacts in the region."<br>
<br>
<b><i>Turn actions</i></b><br>
1. Gather information about the Oyster Isle<br>
2. Trade magical lore with the witches​</div></div>

<b>Action 1:</b> Trade magical lore with the witches.<br>
<b>Action 2:</b> Gather intel for island “F’s” environment and possible dangers.<br>
<br>
Elf prince Airdan and his winterborn attendant made some idle chatter with one of the elder witches of the Grey Maidens... showing their air and fire powers and a few elven tricks they seemed to disarm the cautious and assessing witch, who shared her name as "Phaedra" with the prince as she often stole brief stares into the depths of Airdan's eyes. "Your power is old power, and from far away... to drink of your mana and feel your leylines is a rare treat for us witches so far west. You grace us with your presence. Even though only Phaedra is present, she constantly refers to a "We" or "Us" as she pulls away motes of white and red energy from Airdan and the Winterborn, relishing the gentle tasting of their powers as both elves stole glance back and forth, deciding quickly not to burst into laughter at the strangeness of all of it.<br>
You have gained the spells of:<br>
<br>
Fire: Flashbang, Summon Wisp, Resist Cold, Firesheild, Immolation<br>
Air: Airshield, Summon Lesser Air Elemental, Shockwave, Mist, Seeking Arrow<br>
<br>
<br>
(Your manapools are depleted, you may cast no spells this turn or next turn)<br>
<br>
<br>
When done, Phaedra clasps Prince Airdan's hands and plops down in front on him, like a young girl at a sleepover with a secret to tell...<br>
<br>
"Your journey through the archipelagos will not be a straight one -- it must have twists and turns if you are to leaves thee isles at ALL!" her words are concerning, but related in a manner of wonder and spirit of fun, and maybe a bit of mischief...<br>
<br>
"We will Read your Harrow Cards, on the topic of your voyage and your ultimate destination at the lady of Clavenshire." She pats her sleeve and the cards march in single file from her robe into her hands, shuffling themselves as three take a slight bow and fall into her lap...<br>
<br>
The first card is that of a one-eyed giant pouring beer between two steins... "The Publican!"<br>
<br>
The second, a Lamia with a diamond crown and wilted bouquet and long raven hair... "The Liar!"<br>
<br>
The third, a great water elemental bride standing beside a tall elemental groom of fire... "The Marriage!"<br>
<br>
"The Publican, It represents fellowship and refuge. The cyclops is a seemingly inconsequential figure who nonetheless has relevant insight... it will be easy to overlook YOUR cyclops, but you must heed their words!<br>
<br>
The Liar, It represents destructive, treacherous love. The lamia signals obsession, star-crossed lovers, or unrequited desire." The witch seems to tut and shake her head before turning to the final card...<br>
<br>
"The Marriage, It represents a union of peoples, ideas, or kingdoms that might be as productive or as ruinous as the bonding of a salamander and a water weird. With the Liar ascendant, it does not bode well for your quest..."<br>
<br>
"Guard your heart, be literal and imaginative in this objective. Take the card of the Publican... Invoke this card when you think your cyclops' wisdom is elusive." Phaedra slips the card into Airdan's sleeve, where it seems to melt away... "Until you call it forth" Phaedra, looking tired in the effort, scoots to her feet and walks under a line of laundry, leaving Airdan and his attendant alone...<br>
<br>
__________<br>
<br>
The rest of the elves were charged with chasing rumors and research of a particular island nearby... Revealing it's name as "Thrunes-watch" -- for a Venture long ago that sought to build Lighthouses all around the archipelagos to make travel more safe for new arrivals. Only this lighthouse remains it seemed of however many lighthouses they succeeded in erecting. Rumors were that The Thrunesfang, the Ship of the Venture, crashed upon "Smuggler's Shiv" and was lost with all hands... but older tales speak of no such merciful a fate... that the crew lives on the Shiv still, degenerating with every generation into more lost and wicked savages... Thrunes-watch is still a functioning lighthouse, but there are no records of who has maintained it for decades. There is talk of Natives on the island, who have harsh traditions regarding outsiders and rituals of barter... (map will be updated)</div>

1. Gather information on Lavaslate (costs no wealth)<br>
2. Build Outport/Mine on Lavaslate (2 wealth spent)<br>
<br>
It appeared any information they had on Lavaslate was extremely old -- their most recent charts showed it only as a collection of islets, and terribly small. At Port Bax there were treatises that explained how it had been growing consistently since it was first recorded, easily 5 times it's first reported size, and the bearer of a smouldering, though presently barely-active volcano. It was also related that Silver deposits boiled up from the lava in the west, and copper rock was aplenty in the east. With this much known it did not take long for the excited crew to seek and settle lavaslate for themselves...<br>
<br>
With no time to waste, The Crown Prince spurred on his crew and his ship with all haste -- there was assuredly lots to gain in mineral wealth, even if what he had a hunch might be there was not...<br>
<br>
Lavaslate was NOT a welcoming place. The Volcano, Smouldercone, constantly rained bitter ash and the sea wind when it blew over the volcano turned the salty rain to acid. Still not to be deterred, Crown Prince Long-Tian commanded all his followers to settle, and a processing center and outpost quickly rose from the ground in the lee of a great mound of rocks that gave some shelter from the ash and burning rain... He would have to choose which resource his men would exploit first -- Silver could be converted to wealth as well as trade goods quite handily, but copper would be easier to gain in quantity and might have other applications... The Crown Prince smiled inwardly as his scholars wrung their hands with avarice... <br>
<br>
...And then the Burning Riders came. <br>
<br>
Skeletons wreathed in unholy flame, blackened and cracked as their armor and weapons, which glowed with a wicked tinge. <br>
<br>
"You are in the lands of Queen Arafelle, Trespasser. Unless you set up this workplace as her vassal? If you have come to submit your labor in tribute to her highness, indeed I bid your leaders follow me. If you have come to steal from the lands of the Cinderqueen, merely stay where you are, we shall return to correct you shortly."<br>
<br>
The Lead skeletal knight drew down his visor, and the rest of his host did as well and wheeled off to the east. The island rumbled in time with their riding off...  the sun was going down and with it the heat distortion over the land gave way to a ubiquitous glow everywhere one looked at cracks in the pitch black rock.<br>
<br>
The Imperial sailors worriedly whispered back and forth... had they acted too much in haste? Who was this Cinderqueen and would the Venture pay for it's Impetuousness?</div>

Actions<br>
1. Visit the Gunnery and fully stock cannons/powder (1 Wealth)<br>
Julian has issued orders to fully arm the ship in preparation to better defend the ship and its venture.<br>
<br>
2.Carouse the Inns and Taverns<br>
The various clusters of Pazai have gone forth to seek out anything useful to know about the area while the ship is being fully armed.<br>
<br>
The Venture's ship is fully armed and stocked with ammunition, wadding, and powder. Please note your ship is "MAXIMALLY ARMED!" <br>
<br>
Once the ship was safely escorted into drydock the host of the Pazai Clan were LOOSED on the town and it's Inns and Taverns. The Pazai had been pent up traveling to the ends of the lastlands, so given a chance to have their fun they didn't squander a chance. Every confidence, conned. Every sucker, Pinched. All low hanging fruit, Stolen or acquired through "gentle" means... In the taverns there was brawling that fleeced the losers, and in the inns every card and table game left bankrupt for the superior cunning and scoundrelship of the Pazai. Those elements that responded poorly to the shakedown were given a thorough trouncing, and since it was generally the bad element vs. the Pazai the law of Port Bax did not lift a finger to stop it. Eventually the Captain of the thieves guild revealed himself with his assassins and declared the party over. The pazai, drunk on fighting, and cups, and smoke, grinned as they'd already had their fill. Coins clattered on the ground to pay for the mess and all retired to the newly outfitted ship. Julian and Galza "Made Nice" with the local thieves guild, after their crew had given this town it's introduction. They would have access to the BLACK MARKET (drugs, slaves, poisons and the like) as well as a seat at the "table of shadows" -- an unofficial "letter of marque" to start their own rackets in the isles as long as they did not harm the interests of the thieves guild in Port Bax. <br>
<br>
"Pirates in the isles are all on their own, but when in towns and enclaves, uphold the laws that so certainly come natural to you. We salute you for bringing the right kind of trouble, Captain and Wife."<br>

TURN 1<br>
<br>
1. The Totally Normal People and the First Captain begin socializing with the residents of Port Bax to establish relationships and gather information with guidance from the Bookcases and their expertise<br>
<br>
Move towards Island E in the Oyster Isle Cluster<br>
<br>
2. Exploration and scouting of Island E<br>
                       <br>
 ___________________________<br>
<br>
Totally normal and without any strange intent or disposition of any kind, the Nobles and the First captain waddled and rolled down the gangplank and then stopped at the dock to look at one another. They shook their heads with confusion and discernment... should they FLOW into town? Accordion into town like slinkies? NO. They would use their LEGS to WALK around... in fact, it seemed that's how all the other humanoids were doing it. They had been at sea a long time and while they looked every bit the part of TOTALLY NORMAL SEAFARING NOBLES they were used to the candidness and freedom in way of movement they'd developed over their long voyage. <br>
<br>
After deciding in unison that black, brown and an effeminate shade of purple were the most appropriate colors for their boots and clothing, they made their way into town, Smiling enormous smiles of friendship that defied the scope and scale of a human jaw. They Tipped their hats to the ladies, making sure to don them back quickly and with an array of tiny tentacles twist them back on straight until *POP* the hats re-adhered to their exposed and gooey scalps. After deciding handshakes and waving were the best modes of greeting, the minority of the group was encouraged to stop rubbing their waistcoats over where their nipples WOULD BE, and to stop walking in lockstep because it seemed to make people uneasy... still, it was a good thing they were nobles, and perfectly normal as the center of scrutiny was laid at the feet of one particular Kuo-Toa marching band, which delighted those out and about and made it easier to overlook anything not "perfectly" perfectly normal...<br>
<br>
It was a good thing it was dark, and that Port Bax had apparently been "Tamed" earlier that evening by some mighty carousing of some blokes called "The Pazai" or perhaps the strangeness of THE TOTALLY NORMAL PEOPLE would be scrutinized more closely. Any troublemakers had already found more than their fair share of it -- leaving those remaining doing business less suspicious and more friendly than they otherwise might be. Taking advantage of this they used their SENSORY ORGANS to read the behavior and demeanor of those around them and quickly... almost fluidly... and finally... perfected their emulation of a bunch of people strolling the bars...<br>
<br>
They collected some rumors in the taverns which might be of some use:<br>
<br>
"There's a place out in the Archipelagos that moves around, where there ain't no wind... the sea is like glass in every direction and the sails hang slack in their yardarms, and the sun is so hot you can hardly breathe... woe be to any who get caught in the Doldrums... avoid the sea of Glass!"<br>
<br>
"The kelp forests are a great place to refill on fresh water and food if you know how to do it, but don't get your ship trapped in there or you'll never cut free!"<br>
<br>
"Earplugs are good against Sirens, but nothings better than playing the notes they sing, but backwards."<br>
<br>
"Got no problem's with any of you gentlemen, but one of your mates won't stop hitting on my daughters hope-chest. Can you talk to 'im?"<br>
<br>
They established friendships about the Port, and learned that the fishmongers were always telling stories of sea monsters and exotic catches that were worth a seaman's while if they dealt with them properly: <br>
<br>
Sharkfiends -- Infernal sharks with an evil and cunning intelligence. Many of their parts are valuable, and they say killing one is lucky indeed!<br>
<br>
There was also talks of schools of "Blitsashes" which ascend from the deep with their glowing scales in the darkest of nights -- good eating if you can catch them, and good twofold the selling of them...<br>
<br>
They went outside and conferred all their information with the PERFECTLY NORMAL BOOKCASE that had been following them around, and began gathering intel on the island they were headed for. The Island was called "Ayan Bakur" -- a settlement of a people known as the "Garun'dim" -- long lost transplants of the Dunesea. It was said they had an appetite for spices, silks and furs, but it was a long time since any of their vessels had come to Port Bax. It was decided 2 wealth would be spent acquiring (2 units of) spices at Port Bax to quickly turn them for a Profit at Ayan Bakur... Arrangements were made. <br>
<br>
The island they scouted, Ayan Bakur be it's name, had numerous structures on it, and also was dotted with ruins and dark shadowy forests. <br>
<br>
Points of Interest:<br>
<br>
A large temple in the east which strangely had a village-sized community of tents sprung up around it... <br>
A ruined temple on the North shore, eclipsing what looked like a walled community inland...<br>
A tower surrounded with Rubble in the west, <br>
And a collection of seemingly flattened houses in the south.<br>
The woods were thick and overgrown with black vines and greenish brambles, filled with animals that hid safely in it's deeps...<br>
<br>
The Mayflower milled about the coast of Ayan Bakur after making one circumnavigation to scout it...<br>

<br>
Einar's longship <i>Hringhorni</i> prepared to raise sails as the rest of the crew aloft made ready for battle once their oars were stowed away, his axe-sharpening and mail clad drengir eager to raid and settle the virgin lands that awaited them after their short rest in Port Bax. "We soar east on dragon's wings!" The jarl bellowed above the squawking of gulls and the crash of waves. "Like the first spear cast in the killing fields of our Gods, we strike out as if lightning to claim new lands for my father Ásmegin King and all Iorundians before all others! Let the cloistered Muurdain elite watch us today in envy from the imperious safety of their light-eyed fortress carved into the mountain face, for a new star rises in the north, and humble Brodir will make it's mark upon Marig's incarnation of Avecury before this Age of Man is done!" Perhaps he embellished the truth, such could not be avoided when so little was known, but it felt good to say it, and even better to hear the saga recounted in skaldic verse with a drinking horn of mead in hand upon his triumphant return home he was starting to suspect.<br>
<br>
"Yngvar Geitirsson, Katla Alvidottir, I require the wise counsel of my thanes," he turned to address the nobles of his hold accompanying him aboard the longship after the howling and cheering died down, "please come join me in my quarters when you are ready so that we might usher in this new dawn for our people as one mind." He had known Yngvar since he was a boy, and Katla herself once served as his lieutenant for seasons of raiding with the seawolves in his youth back when Máni still captained the nimble <i>Alfaðir</i>. Both strangers to him now from what seems like an eternity spent apart, only the days ahead would reveal if he could truly rekindle the friendship and love that their clans used to share in fulfilling their mutual obligations to one another whether in times of peace or war. His only regret thus far was Hrónn's absence, though the storm genasi knew his present intentions and was sure to follow him again when the time was right with more than enough to keep Sigbjorn's forge lit until Pankration.<br>
<br>
Taking the helm adorning the head of the giggling squire attending him in his plated hands and placing it upon his own, Sir Hjalti ruffled the mussed hair of the girl, much to her endless delight, and quickly sent her on her way back below decks to rejoin her mother as Einar Jarl approached. "Not since the days of chieftains and drotten have the men been so inspired Einar. If you are half as much a warrior as you are a poet, when your death in battle comes and the Valkyries claim your soul to make you einheri I will save a seat of honor in that halls of legends so the son of Ásmegin may be welcomed by name." The knight rises to bow before Einar places a hand on his shoulder.<br>
<br>
"You honor me Sir Hjalti. Let me honor you by leading this great host as a man. Until I am crowned King, regard me by deed, not by birth." He commanded while the shipwrecks of the 'Rock' came into view all around them as Bersi expertly navigated the <i>Hringhorni</i> through the treacherous jagged coastline south of Glitterwood immediately prior to making the crossing to the Oyster Isle on the open sea. Doubtless, many would-be conquerors thought this untamed archipelago was their final challenge and conquest before their dreams were dashed upon the shores of their doom now covered by fat birds and marine mammals ignorant of the monuments to hubris that they occupied. In the far distance, a tower loomed between Grey Maidens and Port Bax, a tower of dancing lights that appeared to be the most intact of the structures on the landmass according to the map he kept close.<br>
<br>
Dismissing the local curiosity and potential obstacle as an area best to avoid for now, he finally takes his leave of Sir Hjalti and retires to his quarters just as Yngvar and Katla finished with their preparations and entered the room of maps, correspondence, and tools with him. Bylgja, his storm genasi völva, was in a meditative trance on a cloak of furs, lost in her visions and speaking in a tongue of dark seidr on the floor, surrounded by sacred plants and the vile concoctions that their mixtures made under crushing weight of mortar and pestle. A few weeks of hard sailing, and the winds of magic have abandoned runes and storm genasi alike as they drew closer to the edge of the lastlands. Only experimentation and prayer could once again unlock the arcane secrets that their people so desperately need, yet Einar was loathe to assist his seeress when his attention was so short.<br>
<br>
"So what of it Einar? Foreigners of a thousand lands darken these waters," Yngvar stepped forward, "and all chose to make more use of Port Bax than our little <i>Hringhorni</i>. They're gathering information, resources, allies, and cannons, and what do you do? As soon as all of our supplies were restocked you gave the order to disembark again, without even the companionship of <i>Alfaðir</i> and Hrónn to bolster our numbers. Whatever that witch there has whispered into your ear, no amount of dwarven steel is going to save us should we ever come to blows with these captains when they set out to enact their own wills, let alone overcome what other dangers may lurk here through force of arms alone. To stay this mad course is nothing more than folly."<br>
<br>
Katla shook her head. "I must agree with Yngvar on this. What more to add to our troubles, I spotted two ships leaving harbor, I wouldn't be surprised if they mean to take islands of their own... This is a bold move Jarl, of that much is certain." She contemplated as she peered at the incomplete ancient charts scattered before her, trying to see the bigger picture. "Where exactly will we put our men ashore?"<br>
<br>
"There," Einar tapped a sealed scroll on Oyster Isle, directing their eyes to the ruins spanning both sides of the largest bay's inlet. "We send a landing party ahead, and then we go a-viking." He said before lifting and waving the roll of parchment. "It's true, Hrónn might not be out on the whale road with us, but they have been busy at work collecting intelligence on the Oyster Isle that may very well aid us in our quest, and for that we owe my kin, bound by pact and by blood, our thanks and support." He decrees as they begin to plan a raid...<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>TURN ONE</b> Actions​</div><br>
1) Scout the Oyster Isle with 21 Jestir and 3 Skald-kappi, exploring the ruins on the northern and southern peninsular lips of it's largest bay in addition to cautious further investigation of it's many 'hills' utilizing TRADITIONS of ESPIONAGE, COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE, and STEALTH to remain undetected/confuse any unwanted observers. Bylgja, a (stormlord) storm genasi, tries to conceal the <i>Hringhorni </i>by cloaking it in mist as it's mast is lowered to reduce it's profile once it nears the shore, and then proceeds to join and advise the landing party along with Einar's crag hedrox cat Jörmungandr to support the reconnaissance effort by conjuring illusions, increasing mobility, and enhancing senses whilst Jörmungandr goes where others cannot.<br>
<br>
<br>
2) Raid, or if utterly uncontested, settle the ruins of the western bay (3 wealth spent if so), keeping a low profile. The <i>Hringhorni</i> itself is covered in local vegetation when beached to help camouflage it.</div>

Victoria arrived the morning after what must have been one hell of a night in Port Bax. Everyone was on their best behavior and the bad element, which was always so obvious to Victoria (Those overripe souls, it was almost like they were flirting!) was on it's best behavior. Victoria had her attendants carry her chair into port, and let her agents loose to do their duties. She looked at the overcast above her head and saw it for what it was -- the town was covered by some localized curse of storms -- but this town was grey even on the sunniest of days.<br>
<br>
As Victoria perused the shops an bought a snowball-sized red pearl -- it would make a fine blood orb or somesuch bauble when properly enchanted -- The Husks and Kithless funneled info back to her -- At first it was thought Varisian Gypsies had struck the town and squeezed the populace for all they were worth -- but no, This was the work of the Pazai clan... <a href="/members/crocodile.8551/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="8551" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId95">
			<img src="/data/avatars/s/8/8551.jpg?1536554459" alt="Crocodile" class="avatar-u8551-s" width="48" height="48" loading="lazy">

 -- who had done their utmost to break the underbelly of this down which now licked it's wounds like a gelded dog. She had heard of the Pazai, plenty of them over recent centuries had winded up in the hells and earned a grudging respect as ruthless henchmen... perhaps almost as ruthless as her own bunch -- but she wouldn't bet on it...<br>
<br>
In the tavern Victoria met a charming though slightly intoxicated BOOKCASE (laying on it's back in a corner surrounded by empty tankards) <a href="/members/heyitsjiwon.20661/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="20661" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId97">
			<img src="/data/avatars/s/20/20661.jpg?1488155105" alt="Heyitsjiwon" class="avatar-u20661-s" width="48" height="48" loading="lazy"> 
		</a> <a href="/members/heyitsjiwon.20661/" class="username " dir="auto" data-user-id="20661" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId98">Heyitsjiwon</a>
 with very loose lips. They were one of a commune of mimics it seemed belonging to the command of one "First-Captain-John-du-Doe" -- How charming, As a devil once could hardly sneeze without knocking over THREE neuvo-riche MONSTER bands trying to swim with the infernals... But she got the skinny on the Pazai and John-du-doe factions without too much manipulation, and learned of a recently surfaced black market in port bax where her kithless secured a small supply of very potent WYVERN VENOM for a negligible price...<br>
(before a fight Victoria or her army may use "Wyvern poison" as a unit descriptor.. it will run out fast for crew, but a decent supply is kept aside for Victoria Varna...)<br>
<br>
The short of the news was many newcomers had arrived just in port Bax alone and she wondered if any of these ventures would be competition, cat's paws, or otherwise possibly allies. The last word she had heard was some "Crown Prince" from the Eastern Empires, The jade isles perhaps? Had rushed through port shortly before her arrival on the way to some accursed rock called "Lavaplates" -- setting off without much scouting or intel -- this prince must be impetuous indeed. If a would-be emperor was as handsome as he was impetuous she might consider... she waves such thoughts away for the moment like an intruding fly which she incinerated out of the air.<br>
<br>
Sampling what little port bax could offer in way of delights only took til midday -- though some of the rare fish and drinks were worthy perhaps of more attention. It was learned that the isles she had her eyes on were called "The highstone grottos" (map updated) -- Apparently this group of islands was the refuge of Yssian (merpeople who have legs on dry land) Royalty who had fled from a lost war in the deeps that errupted to the surface. They now were scratching out a living on the surface and hollows beneath the water. The Royals calling their holdings "Old Ys" (despite their original homes being ruins in the depths) and a younger rebel faction had split from the royals settling absurdly close in a place similarly humourously named "New Ys"... Wasn't Old Ys New Ys, making new Ys, New-New Ys?<br>
<br>
If she cared to travel there, she would have to be attentive and diplomatically agile... strange folk indeed they seemed to be.<br>
She also was given rumors torn out of ancient books and scrolls that there was treasure in that island cluster -- some legend to the effect of:<br>
<br>
"When each of the Triplets gives up their prize, The ruins of Makken-Depths shall rise." ... What did it mean? All references seemed to come back to this, Victoria wondered how easily these lands would give up their secrets once she got going collecting them...<br>
<br>
With it getting into the evening Victoria cut her tied to business and began to think about the pleasures of the evening. Suckling pig and Virgin Olives? Or Suckling Virgins and and an olive pig? (an orc) ... what to dine on, as she considered her next move...<br>

<b>Actions: <br>
 survey island: tasked: sea treader X 10 sea treader shrouded <br>
 construct smelters: tasked: rock breaker x10 youngers x20 one wealth?</b><br>
<br>
Sand was wet and pliable, sandstone was strong and shape-able. Their ship was humbled but fixable, the ores of the islands mixable. The elders and the Crab-brood moved and worked as one to the beat of drum and the clacking of mandibular music. However, there was much to do...<br>
<br>
The sea treaders noted that there was little surface territory on the island and no vegetation -- but plenty could be built warm and dry within their sandstone pit, and plenty could be made cool and wet in the shallows around the island. <br>
<br>
The sea treaders, massive and bulky, moved with unexpected almost preternatural grace and silence as they scouted the shore and the waters beyond. Traces of Copper and Iron clung to rocks and Tubular corals... a good omen, and the treaders peeled all such deposits off and loaded them into seaweed bags they hauled across the shallows. (gain 1 unit of copper and 1 unit of IRON!) -- The flora and fauna around the island were gentle, and tasty -- fat lazy sea-mammals gave up their flesh almost willingly, or as willingly as one does when one is ambushed by silent killer crab monsters one would suppose... so that bode well for staying here a bit. <br>
<br>
What did not however, was the absence of trees on their isle, and only limited supplies of sponge-coral suitable for burning in the forge. A source of wood would need to be acquired quickly, for the FORGE would not run hot without fuel for it's furnace...<br>
<br>
And Oh, what a wonder was the forge -- (costing 1 wealth) -- piled high with the shiniest stones to be found in and around the island rocks, with a blazing heart around which the youngers danced as they assembled the smoke-stack ever higher. The forge almost threatened to dwarf the island itself, it was built with such artistry, grandiosity, and enthusiasm. The Copper and Iron would quickly be smelted, but greedy (and beady) eyes quickly looked across the channel at the nearby Isle of THRUNESWATCH -- it's small but dense forest seemingly singing to the Crustacean-people "CUT US DOWN AND BURN US! CUT US DOWN AND BURN US!" <br>
<br>
The youngers and the legion both prodded the elders with their smallest appendages to look at the jungle trees for themselves... The forge was built, it was time to conquer more territory and assure that the forge-fires would be fed at least as fast as Iron could be found... The elders had much to think about.<br>
<br>
Also discovered off the coast by the sea-treaders was a wreck of a large merchantman ship, it's claiming by the sea seemed brutal and recent. The cannons on the ship -- the crabs quarrelled, could fully arm their vessel -- but could also be melted into more iron -- and the hunger for iron was HIGH...<br>
<br>
 Strangely the interior of the ship was not flooded, as eerie green lights danced within -- this wreck was haunted, it seemed. The crab Elders resolved to make sure any humanoids they killed would be thoroughly evicerated and/or completely eaten should they come to inevitable violence with the "land-prisoners" -- they had too familiar a habit of coming back from the dead if you didn't deal with them thoroughly enough. Still, the elders wondered what cargo could remain in the ghost ship... and how easily the cannons/iron could be liberated from the wreck. <br>
<br>
Cembor did not relish the thought of fighting ghosts... but knew his broodlings would want their treasure... Ghosts did not cotton well to being damaged by normal weapons, but could be harmed effectively enough with rune-magic and a well-placed blast of lightning. The elder also knew that the undead often yearned or sought for things that kept them from a peaceful rest... perhaps the ghosts could be bargained with for whatever would make them move on to oblivion and leave the ship and it's treasures to him and his encrustlings...<br>
<br>
Time would tell...<br>
<br>
<br>
(Great Forge is built, but needs a supply of wood!)<br>

<b>Actions</b><br>
1. Visit Gunnery and purchase full compliment of weaponry (1 Wealth)<br>
<br>
2. Gather intel about island F -- "THRUNESWATCH"<br>
<br>
While the carnies and outrageous hats rapidly packed up the circus, Terren Laevon was brought an invoice and reckoning of all the performances they'd held in the previous week or so in Port Bax and had come to a profit of quite a bit of coin. Not everyone in port was a scoundrel and the community was starving for entertainment so it was great to see that the till doth overflow -- even with the last night of wonders and acts being declared free... (Gain 2 wealth)<br>
<br>
(For your goodwill to the people of Port Bax -- you are awarded "Social Currency" in this community -- mark this in your notes. You will be well received here, and able to spend this social currency for wants or to get out of trouble in the future, in this community or with those who associate with it)<br>
<br>
Gathering intel about the islands was not that hard for Terren Laevon... One of the astral arts could always extract more information from what little was offered... some object-reading here, some twisting of fate there, and all of a sudden secrets are open to you... You learn:<br>
<br>
The Island is known as "Thruneswatch" -- for a Venture that set up a lighthouse there and had intended to set up lighthouses for safe navigation all over the archipelagos...<br>
Rumors have it that this Venture, it's ship the "Thrunefang" had suffered a sorrowful fate being dashed against "Smuggler's Shiv" -- a large and dangerous island off the coasts of the archipelagos. Astral readings showed that the Thrunefang had removed it's old prow-icon of a mermaid, and instead replaced it before their fateful last voyage with that of the icon of a demon. Smuggler's Shiv gave Terren bad feelings -- but something about the old mermaid icon (buried in the deep jungle in the middle of the island) called to him... and even deeper below this, he could hear the whisperings of something darker in the Shiv... an ancient savagery... A cursed coat? All of the blood drained out of a flying goat? From there the messages just got stranger and more disturbing... and no matter how vividly called the shiv, Terren did not let it get in the way of learning more about the Island in question. Besides the buried and beautiful prow-icon, there was a village of natives on the north side of the island -- dangerous to barter with, it might be likely that they would be well received as entertainers. Though why the natives settled so far away from the Island's lighthouse was a question in need of an answer.<br>
<br>
He also heard rumors of recent arrivals in the archipelagos <a href="/members/huntertabbysandshark3.68069/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="68069" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId113">

 -- Crab persons who had floated here in a... well a submarine of sorts... who had built a giant forge for iron in the archipelagos. Such was their hunger for iron that it even eclipsed that of gold, or some magical motes whispered even over reason -- and that they might soon be visitors to this island they were learning about as well. <br>
<br>
More conventionally, his henchlings who did more practical and physical research learned that the Thrunefang, and thus the builders of the lighthouse on Thruneswatch, were from the far off country of Cheliax... and of an old custom of burying precious casks of wine under constructions at sea, to appease the gods and spirits of the sea and not knock their buildings over in a squall. If the age of the lighthouse was to be guessed, that would make whatever wine or spirits under that lighthouse a precious and aged vintage, if they cared to search for it.<br>
<br>
The Circus concluded it's business in Port bax by fully arming at the Gunnery (Note ship is "MAXIMALLY ARMED!") before they marched back up the gangplanks, the locals, and a strange group of bookcases, waving them off with kerchiefs and blessings for a safe voyage...</div>

1. Carouse in the Inns and Taverns<br>
2. Visit the Arena with Captain Dagget Daggerson<br>
<br>
Letting the Trolls off the ship was a mistake. They were portside less than an hour when they began to indiscriminately eat fish out of the market, an picked up more than one house and shook it upside down until all the "Food" fell out... and much needed to be done to convince the trolls that a person falling out of a "Hut dumpster" wasn't fair game.<br>
By the time they were reigned in the Goblin Hobbes were exhausted but were finally able to trap the trolls in the water tunnels beneath Grey Maidens -- where they immediately started devouring the vermin and untreated sewage there until they were in a "food-coma"... They would need to flush the Trolls out to sea and pick them up from the boat as they would no longer fit through the manholes they'd used to get them in there... and plenty of stink-eye was given to the goblins for the trouble until the damage was paid for...<br>
(lose 1 wealth)<br>
<br>
In the Taverns the Crays started daydrinking on arrival, the wrenchmaces needing to brain them properly before any of them became liabilities to the citizenry as well. The city guard cornered all the goblins in a Tavern called "The Rocky Ale Alehouse" and left them to their devices -- each cray drinking itself sick and proceeding to barf in technocolor all over the premises until a delegated wrenchmace could knock it unconscious. The wrenchmaces themselves busied themselves with some gambling and light to moderade vandalism... since what were the citizens of grey maidens going to do? fine them again?<br>
<br>
Yes. Yes they did. (Lose 1 more wealth)<br>
<br>
It seemed without the Goblin Hobbes to keep a healthy level of fear in the crew they were absolutely incorrigible... but after paying their fines the goblins all showed up, drunk and stinking, at the arena to watch their great leader Dagget Daggerson fight for glory and coin.<br>
<br>
But GLORIOUS was the fight in the arena, as Dagget Daggerson defeats the Underleague champion... some drunken dwarf named Balin Bonecourt (make note of this victory, as it may lead to good or bad tidings!) it's a good thing you won, not just because you're alive, but because you got a handy rune-axe, and underwrote all the damage your crew did to the town!</div>

"Ahhhh... That is so much better"<br>
<br>
Under the canopy of the sails, the unkempt clergyman rubbed the feet of the crewmen, massaging each of his toes in sequence with gentle movements, being careful to avoid the raised nodules and bumps that riddled his feet. While there would be no pain for the man, the upsetting of these lesions would only aggravate the poor souls condition.<br>
<br>
While most of the sailors had an almost coppery tan that some might be jealous of it was sadly because of their affliction. Even the sun baked skin of them, possibly considered sunburn, was in part due to their condition. The horrible disease that stripped people from families and friends, their communities, their native lands.<br>
<br>
Leprosy<br>
<br>
Malformed faces, thickened extremities, and a lack of feeling cursed everyone aboard, and it was Father Damian and his Alabaster Nuns who now took it upon themselves to tend these pitiable unfortunates. Driven from everywhere else, these Godless Isles might be their only bastion of hope across the entirety of the High Seas.<br>
<br>
"Captain. We.... We've.... docked" panted a stricken sailor<br>
<br>
Rising to his feet, Father Damian thanked the man, softly placing his hand on his shoulder. "Get some bread and water, my friend, and rest easy"<br>
<br>
While it broke his heart to have these sick souls man the ship for him, the languishing lepers had graciously volunteered to do so as recompense for all he had done for them. With most to badly afflicted to help, that left only thirty or so more able bodied men to do the work of a few dozens. Early on in their travels Father Damian had done his best to ease their workload but with so many to tend to, and his sometimes simple nature finding him often underfoot, the cast down clergymen gave up on such ideals.<br>
<br>
While normally vigilant in their endeavours the portly priest quickly spied one of the crew being too enthusiastic with his task, a trail of scarlet skin and blood being left behind on the ropes as the man pulled close the rigging to adjust the sail. Completely unaware, the man continued in his duties, the slab of skin slapping to the ground like a hunk of wet fish.<br>
<br>
"Gustav, head below. Your wound needs tending" called Damian, rushing over.<br>
<br>
Looking at the priest with minor confusion, the flat nosed sailor checked himself over, the dripping pus and blood from the wound on his arm quickly apparent. Helping him to the doorway, Father Damian let him go below deck. With a stumbling haste Gustav went down the stairs so the Nuns could treat his wounds.<br>
<br>
The cawing of ravens murmured behind Damian, as the looming shadow of a Redeemer hung over him. Clad in ivory platemail, these hulking suits of armour were a gift from the Merry Monarch of Molochi, on whose lands his charges beckoned from them. Guides to the afterlife, these heavenly beings protected everyone on board until it was their time to leave this plane.<br>
<br>
"Not today, seraphim" spoke Damian, putting his hand on the eager Redeemers chest plate, leaving behind a bloody handprint on the pristine celestial as he walked away.<br>
<br>
Checking on his charges one final time before he went ashore, making sure they were all fed and rested, the clergymen captain would take whichever Nun could be spared as the rest tended to the poor unfortunates below. He would seek the blessing of the local establishment of the Church or the Governor to begin setting up colonies in the neighbouring isles, affording his charges the freedom to live away from persecution.<br>

<b><i>Turn actions</i></b><br>
1. Gather information about the Oyster Isle<br>
2. Trade magical lore with the witches<br>
                       <br>
 The Cult of the Celestial Siblings had arrived at the Grey Maidens after a long voyage. The Chorus poured into the markets to refill on water and other supplies, while the higher members of the cult went about gathering information for the venture.<br>
<br>
Tyaraa and Telren, Heads of the Venture, instead sought the guidance of the witches in their wagontrains outside of town at the food of the dark and whispering woods... Tyarra was no spellcaster, but a dear friend and guardian of Telren, and would take no chances with a Venture Leader's safety...<br>
<br>
Going to stores of knowledge (hard to find in the town proper) and asking around with locals and drunken sailors the Cult had a stroke of great fortune, finding a interesting bit of clues in the back of a book on island architecture. They learned on the Oyster Isle is an ancient tower built by the long lost civilization of the Vaal, a mysterious race not heard of since the second wind ages (15th age-- of 17, the current age). This tower was built in the style of the even more ancient Azlant -- who's building methods and styles date back to the 5th age! The Vaal tower is said to be an observatory of ancient Azlanti ruins -- most recently used to survey the island of smuggler's shiv. What ancient secrets did Smuggler's Shiv hold if it was touched by the ancient Azlanti? What else in the archipelagos could date back to the Vaal or Azlant, and if found what could the observatory tell about them?<br>
<br>
Besides this, They learned of the ruined city of Mwangi on Oyster Isle, a great community astride the river that leads into the islands central bay. Among other notes, they found a map of the old city of Mwangi, which, if close enough to the ruins to get points of reference, could reveal the position of various points of interest there. (Make note of this!)<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, Tyarra paced around a muddy tent where Telren communed with a witch named Shenogura -- waving her arms, she pulled motes of white and brown mana from her, sampling her power and nodding frequently. "The sphere of stars, and the sphere of earth... a natural combination -- heaven above, and earth below"<br>
<br>
You have gained the spells of:<br>
<br>
Earth: Flying Shards, Earth Might, Stoneskin, Lightning Resistance, Earth Grip, Summon Minotaurs (1d4, last 1 combat, "Bodyguard" descriptor)<br>
Astral: Twist fate, Astral Projection, Starfires, Personal Luck, Resist Magic, Blink<br>
<br>
(Your manapools are depleted, you may cast no spells this turn or next turn)<br>
<br>
_______________________<br>
<br>
Before reconvening at their vessel, the cult was approached by a strange Gnome with a sapphire chalice... "A cup of Waterbreathing", he called it... capable of granting up to 30 individuals the ability to breathe underwater for hours at a time. The Gnome, his purple hair going white, said he no longer had any use for it -- but would part with it for enough gold for him to retire (1 wealth) -- will you buy the item? (does not cost an action)</div>

1) Scout the Oyster Isle with 21 Jestir and 3 Skald-kappi, exploring the ruins on the northern and southern peninsular lips of it's largest bay in addition to cautious further investigation of it's many 'hills' utilizing TRADITIONS of ESPIONAGE, COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE, and STEALTH to remain undetected/confuse any unwanted observers. Bylgja, a (stormlord) storm genasi, tries to conceal the <i>Hringhorni </i>by cloaking it in mist as it's mast is lowered to reduce it's profile once it nears the shore, and then proceeds to join and advise the landing party along with Einar's crag hedrox cat Jörmungandr to support the reconnaissance effort by conjuring illusions, increasing mobility, and enhancing senses whilst Jörmungandr goes where others cannot.<br>
<br>
<br>
2) Raid, or if utterly uncontested, settle the ruins of the eastern bay (3 wealth spent if so), keeping a low profile. The <i>Hringhorni</i> itself is covered in local vegetation when beached to help camouflage it.<br>
<br>
________________________________________<br>
<br>
<br>
The <i>Hringhorni </i>pulled into the strait of Oyster Isle -- and upon doing so did everything in their power to hide their ship. The ruins north and south of the channel had many flooded basements -- filled with saltwater and small but very aggressive reptiles  -- Jörmungandr ate one, but not without a hell of a fight. Learning quickly not to disturb them, they scouted the ruins (picked clean it would seem many times before) finding nothing of interest but a few Sandstone and Lapis mosaics of powerful dark-skinned warriors that apparently lived in this once flourishing city astride the river. some bits of pottery and a tablet or two later and they figured this was once the great city of Mpinkulu -- which the skalds roughly translated as "Big War"... After the ruins were searched the stealthy teams searched the surrounding countryside to learn that many of the "Hills" about the island were actually man-made stone barrows, covered by earth and grass with the passage of time. None dared defile these crypts without direct ordres, but the Jestir saw plenty of signs -- most especially bones outside the barrows -- to indicate that the dead did not rest easily here.<br>
<br>
Uncontested, the great warband, disembarked, began to dredge a nearby basement of saltwater and begin construction of a great longhouse (3 wealth) that was to be three stories high, with arched clearance for even large ships to sail below it. The longhouse would be a place of commerce and socialization, but also a vault and seat of government as well. With a calm forest to the south and plenty of quality stone in the ruins, there were plenty of materials for the project. the bridge was completed first, when the expedition was approached by a dozen or so <i>NOT SO SMALL </i>but potentially very aggressive reptiles...<br>
<br>
Aymarans they were, and far from home it would seem, as they were native to the great deserts far from here and south. Ten to twelve feet each, they wielded great trees like one handed clubs, The leader of the bluish scaly bunch and almost black in color wielded a magical leather tower shield and a cestus made of over twenty bone spear-tips, that shone with a yellow hue.<br>
<br>
One of the smaller Aymarans listened to the dark one bark at him, then recited in a broken but understandable trade dialect:<br>
<br>
"You Draining Spawning pool. Build on Kulu ruins We flattened. Aymarans come and flatten again?" <br>
<br>
The warhost of Einar Jarl began to pick up their weapons and place down their tools, and the Aymarans smiled and picked their teeth... More Barking.<br>
<br>
"Num-lox says you look like raiders. Come to raid us."<br>
<br>
(DECISION POINT: Continue construction? Parley with Aymarans? One wealth is already invested)</div>

<hr><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255)"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">A pail of water wrested itself from oblivion on the deck of the <i>Alfaðir</i>, freezing over like a freshly washed winter porch then shifting to a boiling cauldron of activity and finally seeping outwards as if someone had submerged their arm into it. The water poured from the bucket, pooling into ten evenly spaced puddles that vibrated like a ferrofluid to a magnet - the air around them clicked and buzzed with electrical activity that made hair stand up on end. <br>
<br>
They suddenly rose upwards undisturbed, flat plates of window-clear fluid; then straightened out and re-ordered into a rough, almost childlike representation of a short humanoid. The stickperson moved it's "hand" downwards, taking hold of the pail it had emerged from and hanging it from a bracepost to it's side. The figure then shapeshifted once again, legs and arms filling out into muscular, pale representations of dwarvish limbs, the torso and abdomen did the same before finally the previously simplistic and circular head was formed into a distinguished, detailed visage of poorly hidden beard-laden power. <br>
<br>
Hrónn took in a chilly breath of fresh air, their choice of a representational form flaring it's rosy red nostrils to breathe and giving off a jolly, slightly too-wide smile. The Genasi looked across the deck into a crowd of hungover sailors ready for adventure, the crowd (about eighty in all) stood at port waiting to be ordered onboard. Stroking their noncorporeal beard Hrónn debated making the crew wait a little longer, though chose to be a little more polite. The Stormlord gave a ceremonial bow to their crew and stated one word in Brodirian Dwarvish: "<i>Findäri</i>.". The crew walked on board, all pretenses of silent professionalism releasing as they immediately broke into talk and laughter - Fiskanda followed the crew's example, showing the same uncanny smile as before and ordering for everyone to their posts. <br>
<br>
The other nine Stormlords on the crew, all in various states of form and emotion, convened with Hrónn amidship. The nine: Eyþór, Nökkvi. Særún, Solveig, Bøki, Håkon, Wolffe, Hjalmar and Jens had less than two decades of experience altogether in the material plane but they were ambitious and powerful, traits useful in a place like the Untamed Archipelagos, and summarily the ten of them (including Hrónn) paid eachother the respect of a band of blood siblings - with all of the skirmishes that may come in a relationship so close.<br>
<br>
After over an hour of structured argument the ten were set on accompanying Einar Jarl on his sail to Oyster Island, the ten were also in agreement that Dwarves are really fuckin' cool and that it would make some sort of sense to copy their architectural choices; believing that choosing the underground for a garrison was the best course of action in protecting the newly-formed settlement. Finally coming to a consensus, the ten threw wind into the sails and hailed for oaring - it would be hours until they reached the Jarl's position and they would need to catch their slumber.<br>

<b>Orders:</b><br>
<br>
<i><b>Seek an audience with the local Church/ Governor for their blessings/ protection to build a colony with Father Damian, 1 Alabaster Nun (Sister Jane) (Oratory/ Theology specialty used)<br>
<br>
<u>Reliant on order above (possibly)</u><br>
 Recruit volunteers/ the unemployed to help establish and build a colony with Father Damian, 1 Alabaster Nun (Sister Jane) (Oratory/ Translator speciality used/1 Wealth put aside for possible boat/ incentive)</b></i><br>
<br>
Father Damian's spurious oratory had confounded the Housemen guarding the front of the Governor's mansion. Spouting theology and thanks and praise he and his Nun compatriot blazed past the outdoor servants and upon mentioning his charges, being Lepers, the indoor staff as well were too frightened to lay hand on him to stop him from ever-on making more and deeper polite progress into the building. Before long he was sitting before the governor... A rotund man his servants merely called "Mr. Black."<br>
<br>
The governor was NOT intimidated or frightened by Damien, so he was taken aback when Mr. Black took a course tone with him, eventually heard him out, and then replied as he pulled apart a giant greasy rock-bird with his bare hands...<br>
<br>
"Approval. Yes... Of course, whatever gets you going to parts further west the soonest. No, there will be no volunteers, conscripts or even hire-ons for your venture. We need every able bodied man in Port Bax for the time being... and gentlemen of your... condition... do not bode well for the Port or the townies. But let it not be said that I am not a sport for you getting in here... He pushed a small box of pearls and gems across the table at Damian -- (Gain 1 wealth) -- we pay our respects to the priests, and the gods, and all of that... <i>Shit."</i><br>
<br>
Father Damien was dejected for the kurtness and obvious biases of the governor, but any charity, no matter how barbed, could not be afforded to be turned away. Taking the box under his arm he made his way back out of the Mansion, this time to the rear, where many unsavory characters lurked, drank, and gambled. They stared Father Damien down, but could not get under the skin of Sister Marianne... lovely as she was, in her habit she seemed almost "out of time" with everyone and everything else, a celestial way about her. Her age could not be guessed without seeing her white and silver hair, and even that left a person guessing from the freshness of her face.<br>
<br>
"These men are thieves and killers Father" Sister Marianne said. <br>
<br>
But father Damien didn't hear her, as he stepped outside into a loud thunderstorm.<br>
<br>
He would head back to port to make sure the resupplies had been done and, yet again, check on the status of all his charges. <br>
<br>
He would also find that after boarding his ship, it was towed out of port and given a gentle ram into a lane of high wind... They were at sea again... having been on solid ground already seemed like a distant dream...</div>

1. Form a base-of-operations on Oyster Island, spending one (1) wealth on a wall surrounding the ruins, one (1) wealth on a fishery on the coast near them and one (1) wealth on beginning an underground complex that will serve as a military base for an Oyster Island garrison. (All of this is overseen by Leadfang-3 who has both Mining and Architecture experience.)<br>
<br>
2. oyster island recon that was already accounted for<br>
<br>
Hronn and his crew arrived a minor time after his Ally Einar Jarl had broken ground on Oyster Island...<br>
<br>
The Jarl was fighting... barking... or perhaps conducting diplomacy with Towering Crocodile people... Aymarans -- what were they doing here so far from the southland deserts? Likely escapees or abandoned slaves of some Muurdain project that used the giant monsters as dumb labor and warriors. Hronn listened in to the Exchange:<br>
<br>
"Would raiders build?" Einar replied to a grunting Amyran Giant, a hand at his hip above his axe while he made a sweeping gesture over the great bridge, crowning jewel of the emerging skyline of the bay. Further drainage would cease for now, and the spawning pool refilled if possible. "We are far from Iorund, as are you from your ancestral homeland of Aymara. We hail from cold fjords, and your people from warm oases. A world apart, these lands of ice and fire, but yet here we meet in the middle," he spoke, patiently waiting for the translator to catch up. "Know now I am Einar Jarl, a man who is no friend of the Muurdain, and that I will not be moved from this spot. I say take the best of the spawning pools, and trust us with raising the rest of them into warriors capable of beating your's. Your mouthpiece here," he points to the smaller translating Amaryan, "can live with us to watch as well as step in where we fail. A day may come where Muurdaan seeks to take all these islands for their own, and so may a day when their rule is challenged. Would it not be better to have allies willing to do everything in their power to strengthen and stand with your tribe for when those days come?"<br>
<br>
"We do not raise our young, and you think we will let YOU? Parent-Parent. Coddle-Coddle. Mammal talk. WEAK talk."<br>
<br>
"We crushed the invaders that settled her before you, and we will come from the swamps to crush you again if you insist on staying here. Leave Croclets alone. Leave Ruins alone. Leave Island alone." The Aymarans left, walking straight into a tree-line like it wasn't there and felling prodigious amounts of old growth....<br>
<br>
While the talks seemed to lead the Northmen nowhere with their neighbors, the work assignment was likewise as shitshow. (You can't build 3 buildings with one order, at least not without an already bustling community.)<br>
<br>
There was no wall... what little barricades they erected washed away at high tide.<br>
<br>
The fishery has an area cleared for it, but nothing put down...<br>
<br>
And the ambitious idea for an underground base was abandoned almost instantly when any attempt to excavate the surface in the ruins quickly flooded with saltwater, and little aymaran young were running everywhere -- eating tools, stealing food, eating EACH OTHER, and more than anything just being a dangerous nuisance.<br>
<br>
Hronn and Einar sighed and drowned their sorrows in great tankards of beer as the sun went down.<br>
<br>
As they watched, a particularly large Aymaran Croclet swallowed their steaming cooking-pot, (and both of their dinners) before galloping off into a basement.<br>
<br>
What in the nine hells would they do about this?!<br>
<br>

<u>Princess Despduis’s adventure: <br>
<br>
Turn 1</u> <br>
<br>
Scouting / Gathering force: (60 Drones, 2 Directors, 36 Pincers, 2 Shamanwing); “The swarm’s first task… going out into what we call home in order to begin collecting and gathering resources so that we can begin our journey throughout the islands along with reinforcing our position in the case that hostilities may arise… whether from those we know or those unknown.” <br>
<br>
Building: (60 Drones, 3 Directors, 10 Pincers) Guard posts; “Setting up guard posts positioned in key areas in order to better respond to dangers to our hive along with reinforcing our position should be the first thing we focus upon… especially with our rivals who may plan to attack us while we are gone.”<br>
<br>
The Princess lay dormant in her chambers, tended by the court -- but the orders had gone up to begin scouting and construction outside of the hive.<br>
<br>
Aggressive dances and gesticulations began as the bees prepared their first tasks of expansion in their territory... The buzzing became loud then overpowering as scores of drones and pincers took flight, under careful pheromone guidance by the Directors. The Beevarians were on the move!<br>
<br>
The Beevarians had merely operated on a level of subsistence for the most part until recently -- the New Princess, Despduis, had ambitions beyond this.<br>
<br>
The drones foraged further and more ardently into the surrounding woods than ever before... and rapidly found patches of DARKWOOD in the deeper forest and scattered supplies of AMBER the closer they got to the territory of the Arachnai, their occasional predators (and victims) who they shared a border with. The pincers killed any animals of significant size quickly and cleanly and carried them back to the nest -- It was incidental to the gathering of strategic resources, but the larders would be full after this operation.<br>
<br>
At the very border of their territory they found a ship run aground that had been overwhelmed by the Arachnai -- Skeletons picked clean, there nonetheless were useful tools and items strewn about... and golden treasures glittered in the wooden wreckage as well... but did they dare potentially anger the Arachnai? The Directors pondered what the will of the swarm would be:<br>
<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Loot the shipwreck (+1 wealth)<br>
B) Strip the shipwreck (+1 wealth, chance of materials/goodies) AND relations with Arachai may suffer.<br>
C) Strip the shipwreck and pick the webs bordering Beevarian Territory of anything valuable (+2 wealth, Materials/goodies) AND relations with Arachnai fall considerably.<br>
<br>
The Border of Beevarian Territory was pushed as far as could safely be flown into the woods before the webs of the Arachnai became dangerous and/or ubiquitous. The Silk-choked area of the deeper wood was full of new and ancient cocooned prey, not the least notable being the shank of a Vespasian (Wasp-folk) Raiding party -- had these wasps tried to sneak into Beevarian lands and fallen prey to the Arachnai? <br>
<br>
The final point of interest was a small collection of Dryad Woods in a not-oft visited corner of the forest. Dryad wood had powerful magical properties, and was valuable in making items and in trade -- so the directors were tempted to attack the trees and take the glorious wood back to the swarm. The Dryads however said that if aggression was avoided, The Dryads would OFFER TO TRAIN THEM IN MAGIC.<br>
<br>
DECISION POINT: <br>
A) CUT THEM DOWN! (6 units dryad wood!)<br>
B) Spare them for magical lore (costs an action each time to study with them, will teach nature and elemental magics)  <br>
<br>
________________<br>
<br>
With the gathering expedition clearing the perimeter and driving away anything too large to be quickly killed, rendered and stored, The construction drones and their retinue set up many guard posts (no wealth cost) They might gain early warning of encroaching interlopers now, and fight more effectively on their own territory. (Updating map)<br>
<br>
GLORY TO THE HIVE! DANCE THE HIVE IMPERIOUS! BEEVARIANS AS ONE!</div>

Dagget Daggerson looked on in awe at the machine that was before him. It was a mechanical marvel. Something that was going to help him achieve his dreams of owning a successful port town in the middle of the untamed archipelago. A powerful tool and weapon that would make his life so much easier in the long run.<br>
<br>
<br>
A true feat of goblin engineering. He looked at the Wrenchmace that had finished building the wonder before him.<br>
<br>
<br>
“What do you call it?”<br>
<br>
<br>
He gave a devious grin. “A Tinker Tanker. Its got the raw power of a Dwarven Construction Machine, but without any of those silly safety features that make it so much weaker. I mean, seatbelts? A waste of good leather. Metal liquid containers?  Bah. That metal should be used for weapons. And it’ll be staffed by the craziest and most wildest goblins that want the job. What do you think, boss?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Daggerson gave a whistle as he placed his tri cornered hat to his chest. “It's a piece of true beauty and you’ve done good work.”<br>
<br>
<br>
He turned to walk away. “Just make sure that the boys are careful when they’re loading it up on the boat. I wouldn’t want it to break before we even get to the islands.”<br>
<br>

<br>
The chaos that had been caused in the streets made Daggerson’s blood boil. He had just gotten a most wonderful high of not only winning a battle against a nasty dwarf in the arena, of which he not only received a large sum of coin, but also a pretty nifty Rune Axe that he’ll be sure to use in battle from now on.<br>
<br>
<br>
Heck, that was even followed up by gaining two prospective investors into his venture. A venture alone that was a monumental task to be sure. But he was happy to take the coin from Prince Airdan and Guildmaster Zerah Chervon. Two very fine chaps, one of which even wanted him to train some of his men in the Daggerson Way of Combat ™ . With any luck, he’ll get to continue having such a fruitful relationship with the duo and they’ll stop by his port town.<br>
<br>
<br>
But now…..Now he had to pay the town his hard earned winnings to not face their wrath from the chaos that his men had caused.<br>
<br>
<br>
Before him stood the “ring leaders” of the chaos. Two Crays and a Troll whereas he was fuming, almost red in the face.He pointed at the two Cray.<br>
<br>
<br>
“One of you stand on the other’s head.”<br>
<br>
<br>
They looked at each other as each attempted to scramble and be the one on top. Hands and feet flew at each other in a series of uncoordinated strikes as eventually one proved superior to the other and took the position of standing on the other's head. A hearty grin on his face which was quickly removed when Daggerson hopped up onto his head to slap the troll, then jumped down and slapped the other two crays.<br>
<br>
<br>
Dagget Daggerson was pacing as his spoke with his hands behind his back. His anger was rising so much that one could practically see the steam rising from his ears.<br>
<br>
<br>
“You idiots! You complete morons! We are here to make money! Not lose it! At least not my hard earned winnings. Because when I win, you all win. But when you mess up. It makes me look bad. And if I look bad, people won’t come to the port. And if people don’t come to the port. We have no money.”<br>
<br>
<br>
He moved in close to one of the Crays.<br>
<br>
<br>
“You understand what I’m saying?”<br>
<br>
<br>
The Cray nodded his head with a stupid grin on his face quite voraciously and then after a few moments of scrutiny, the smile faded to a frown as he shook his head in the negative.<br>
<br>
<br>
Daggerson sighed as he placed two fingers on the bridge of his nose.<br>
<br>
<br>
“You lot stay out of trouble. At least until I find some trouble for you to cause. Now get out of my sight. I have to go train some of the Prince’s troops in the Daggerson Way of Combat ™ .”<br>
<br>
<br>
The two crays scurried off to the others while the Troll just slowly walked away. Nothing was accomplished and nothing gained. He knew that it all went through one ear and out the other. But it made him feel better at least.<br>
<br>

After training Prince Airdan’s men, Daggerson made sure to get a good night’s sleep. For in the morning, he had everyone packed up safe and sound in The Golden Dagger and launched forward to the Mysterious Island G.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Land Ho, Captain!”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Good, good.Send 5 Hobs to scout out the island. They can be pretty sneaky when left on their own. If there ain’t any islanders, send them back out with 10 Wrenchmaces to get the lay of the land and see how well it can be used for our plans. Hopefully they’ll find something great and not get killed.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Daggerson was hopeful. But this time he was keeping back his most disruptful elements as best as he could. If there were islanders on this land, he would make sure to give them the best possible first impression that he could manage.<br>
<br>
<br>
Which meant keeping back the Crays and the Trolls of the Trash Vanguard unless things were about to get hairy. And if they were, well, lets just say that they’ll finally be put to good use with all that destructive energy that they love to exude. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
After giving his orders, Dagget went back to his cabin and began plotting his next move. He’d need to be very careful out here in the untamed wilderness. He didn’t have too many goblins. But he did have something special. The Tinker Tanker<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">A coastal barque gently skimmed the ocean surface with the True Banner of Attolia proudly flying over it. The Attolian Nobles found themselves crammed in the Captain's Quarters once more with bookcases lines along the walls. It was so crammed that they couldn't avoid bumping into each other. They all stood straight and looked at the First Captain who stood behind a desk. The First Captain thought to himself "Kindred, yesterday, we arrived at Port Bax and mingled with the natives. First I want to thank the bookcases for their advice and expertise in diplomacy and law to ensure that we behaved like proper humans and spoke like them. Second, I wish to applaud you all for a successful night of gathering information and filling our bellies with food and booze. However, we must discuss certain concerns. First, humans do not have relations with inanimate objects, Lord Billy Bob. Please cease any mating rituals with chests and other inanimate appearing objects while in our human forms. Remember, we are able to communicate with fellow mimics telepathically if they have a certain amount of intelligence." It was then that the First Captain heard in his head "But... Captain! The Hope Chest! I could have sworn it was a very good mimic! I couldn't tell if it was a beautiful hope chest or not! Not one of my jokes worked! Surely if it is a mimic, then we want it to be a part of our crew!"<br>
<br>
The First Captain feigned a sigh and said "Yes, yes... but there are more discreet ways to confirm if another object is a fellow mimic. We must maintain our appearance to continue our mission and quest. Remember, we now represent the proud human Attolian Navy, and we must act like it. That said, we will likely return to the Port to confirm if the chest was indeed a mimic in the future. Now, the second matter... I must regretfully inform you all that there are no bookcases that are capable of drinking or getting drunk. While we are in the presence of others, I must request that bookcases act like bookcases and blend in with the background while communicating telepathically to feed us your wisdom and act accordingly." The First Captain heard a collective groaning in his head.<br>
<br>
"That is it for today's feedback session. Now onto the second part of our team meeting. What shall we do now? We are adrift off the coast of Ayan Bakur. There are clear signs of civilization and society on the island... and we have a ton of spices in our hold." One of the bookcases then spoke in the First Captain's mind "Perhaps, we should proceed to the walled settlement in search of the Garun'dim? I am sure that I can help negotiate a fantastic price using these commerce books that are on my bottom shelf. Bring the spices and the bookcases along in carts and wagons with a retinue of Totally Normal Humans dressed as Attolian Navy Officers, the Kuo Toa marching band, and a few corpulents to serve as extra labor and protection" The First Captain replied in his head "Very well, then what of the Kuo Toa?" Another bookcase replied "I can help keep an eye on them and keep them busy. While we have scouted the surface of the island, we have not looked underwater. At the worst case, we'll find some fish to catch and eat or maybe some oysters as the isle's name suggests, but perhaps the waters hide secrets that even the surface folk are not aware of."<br>
<br>
"Excellent!" The First Captain replied in his head "This has been a productive team meeting. Let us now set forth and do what we must. Gather half of the honor guard! Sound the marching song of the Mayflower!" The Totally Normal People and bookcases left the Captain's Quarters and began to form their work groups. The Nobles stumbled upon the Koa Toa, on the deck of the ship... imitating the humans that they saw lately. The First Captain notably saw one of the Priests posing for a personal... portrait? in an Attolian midshipman's uniform that another Koa Toa was attempting to sketch in an imitation of the grand portraits of important humans. The First Captain looked at the rough portrait and was amused by the surprising accuracy of the rough drawing. He gave a quick nod of approval to the sketcher before he called out "The Mayflower sets sail! All hands on deck! We set sail!" A flurry of activity exploded on the ship as the Kuo Toa crew rushed to get to their positions and begin the journey. Meanwhile, one Kuo Toa was in bliss and excited to have been noticed and recognized by the First Captain as he hiss hummed a tune to himself while standing at his position, crewing the Mayflower.<br>

“My hunch was right. There is a scale here.” The Crown Prince chuckled as looked in the direction of Arafelle. “Little Queen, making an enemy of the Dynasty and possessing a scale will be the biggest mistake of your three lives. ” <br>
<br>
Xia Hu, the Empyrean Corps Commander knelt in salute. “My Liege, the Empyrean Corps will prepare. I do not know the capabilities of their cavalry but I have confidence in our troops. The heavens will see our victory. The Empyrean rules!”<br>
<br>
"Esteemed Song Hui and Celestials, you will all follow me. Esteemed Ren Huan, please take control of the outpost in my absence and prepare a sufficient defense with Esteemed Lai Jian. I will leave the specifics to you. I also authorize the relocation of all the cannons in Shenlong to the outpost so they can complement the defense that you would prepare.

Scholar Ren Huan, the settlement scholar, and Scholar Lai Jian, the Survival/Treasure-Hunting scholar lead the Taskmasters and workers to build a defensive perimeter and traps for the upcoming battle. The specialty of the Burning Riders was kept in mind so they will focus on creating defenses that would be advantageous against cavalry as well as complementing their troops such as the Empyreans Corps. Instead of being lethal, the traps would be intended to impede and eliminate or at least reduce cavalry advantages while maximizing infantry advantages. Once you go into the zone, it would be harder to retreat as well. <br>

Some workers were given different colored fireworks and deployed to act as sentries. They will hide and relay information through the fireworks they would launch.

Crown Prince Tian tried to utilize his Imperial Lineage that is related to dragons to tap into its innate fire magic potential and worked alongside the Scholar and Celestial Units to make sure they will be able to maximize their gains. Scholar Song Hui also studied the environment to prepare for rituals or magic that would be helpful in the ascension of the fire magic potential of the expedition as well as the potential to erupt the volcano in the future.</div>

<li data-xf-list-type="ol">Survey Island G ("SANDRIFT"). Send Hobs first using their expert scout and spying action. If the Hob report comes back without their being any current tribes on the island, take them back out with the Wrenchmaces to use their survival skills to ascertain how useful the island is to their current venture. If there are islanders, Daggerson will come out to meet them with some troops on standby in case things go south.</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol">Move to Island G (SANDRIFT)<br>
<br>
The training of Prince Airdan's troops was more than successful, he thought -- the Akluitok weren't from around here or anywhere else goblins had likely been, but that had good fighting spirit, and Dagget could work with that. Work he did, and collected his pay.<br>
<br>
The Mysterious Dune-choked Island of "SANDRIFT" (so named because of the constant drifting dunes and the odd rift in the sandy earth on the north part of the island)<br>
did not seem like the most inviting of places, but it was not without points of interest... MANA CRYSTALS grew in a strange fertile clearing in the middle of the island, Amid tiny Veins of SEMI-PRECIOUS STONES. Things glittered at the bottom of the rift as well, but whether it was water and light playing at the bottom or some kind of metal the Hobs could not determine.<br>
<br>
One thing they were sure about however was a great marble mausoleum-like structure was in constant states of being buried and uncovered by the wind sweeping the south part of the isle. The area would need to be excavated to gain entry -- the sand piled high at the only entrance... but Dagget and his minions could only wonder what prizes might lie inside it. Heck, The Wrenchmaces had a mind to just smash the structure completely and sell the valuable pretty stone. <br>
<br>
Large Scorpions travelled in packs on the island however, but they were easy for the Hobs to avoid or intimidate... for now. It seemed with every encounter they lost more and more fear of the newcomers, but for now were content to endlessly chase the island's goats around rather than try to sneak up on any of Dagget's Goblins... <i>for now.</i><br>
<br>
Was this the island of his Venture's Settlement? The goblins were unsure. There were resources here but not much clear land -- and the mausoleum when it wasn't looking attractive for loot could give the odd goblin a chill... and they were all pretty odd goblins. Captain Daggerson wondered if he could clear some or all of the dunes with the Tinker-Tanker and plenty of elbow grease... His 'Thinkers said if he wanted to, he could fill in some of the shallows around the island with dunes and maybe even make the island larger! <br>
<br>
Was it a good idea?  No idea!<br>
<br>
Did it sound like a good idea? YES -- IT INVOLVED KNOCKING THINGS OVER.<br>

One sound filled the air of Oraska Village, the sound of a soccer ball deflating. Of course, invention hasn't cranked that out yet. Instead, a dark, light flame tickled the morning dew amongst the grasses, bouncing like cannonballs on jello. A rock collided, annihilating both. More began to rain as the clouds broke rank under the sun's endless tide... A boy, maybe ten, launched the rocks everywhere. The grass whooshed to the north as normalcy returned.<br>
<br>
Tanned skin, untouched by the heavens, one black and one white orb for each eye. Strands of hair flew down his face. A battleground fought from within, for a war not meant to be waged. The second sun slept at the tips; a heart of platinum and darkness bellowed at the skull. If one looked closely, a puff of black would enter the white orb. A gold slash would charge into the other. The war waged; the generals were chosen. Nothing seemed certain, other than the slipping of the darkness from the body to the shadow. Slowly, gently, as one might take a life. But, birthed power comes at a cost. Not chosen by choice, chosen by potential, he received and his other, true self paid for it. Cough, spit, vomit; incurable, unfinished sickness. Not a cleric, priest, a paladin could cure it. It reacts to the divine power and rejects it. The blight of Cherub Chevron, a disease that inflicts yet never kills.<br>
<br>
Many diviners have attempted to understand the relationship between Cherub and Zerah. Among the many mysteries, they did discover three facts:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whenever someone attempts to read Zerah's fortune, there is a high chance of failure (reading both Cherub's and Zerah's on success) and a chance for him to create an inferno. (Around himself)</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whenever someone reads Cherub's fortune, you read both Zerah's and Cherub's without knowing which is which. And you read Cherub's fortune from Zerah if Zerah is willing and physically present.</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Cherub cannot die, at least from conventional methods, it appears based on investigation magic that Cherub lives as long as Zerah does. But once Zerah dies, he dies. They share feelings of pain, etc, but they can be easily suppressed.</li>
</ul>Every glance at Cherub; every vomit, every cough that he feels until a pain builds and Zerah's hand clutches at his chest. Even after many, many years, it lingers. A pang of guilt, an original sin that seems unforgivable. A cure has to be found. Zerah swore he would find one. He searched the ruins of the north, the mysteries of forests, and anywhere else across the "eternal empire" that could have a clue. Nothing, nothing at all. With Zerah and his two brothers seemingly forever young, he buried his parents, his cousins, his friends, his original party.<br>
<br>
The guild is everything to him now, but the Muurdaan... made things difficult. Religious persecution, subjection to priests, etc.; while Zerah is human, he distances himself from the actions of the empire. Either through being more than he's worth or bigger fish to fry, Zerah and the Burning Heart Guild kept a shaky but peaceful relationship with the empire. But Zerah knew they would come for him eventually. They would come for Cherub to manipulate him to help them. While Cherub would be too sick to be remotely useful, Zerah hopes to find a place to stow him away. Keep him safe.<br>

[One Hundred and eight Years ago] - [Oraska Village] - [Zerah Age: 16]<br>
<br>
The birds fell to sleep; the lightning bugs flashed across the entire village. Sleepy, boring village. A reveler would perish on entering the place... Well if not for the town's tourist attraction. Accidental arsonist and feeble plagued miscreant. Not the dynamic duo fit for a circus, but it brought all the druids, priests, clerics, what have you into town. Mostly priests. And that kept most kids inside, to shelter them from the horror of the sickness, obviously (not). Each day would end as the sun began to sink. The visitors come at dusk, when the arsonist would sleep, to speak with the sickened boy. Yet, on this night, fate had something more in store. You see friends. Religious orders have their own plans, own goals. No one wants a little boy to stab their propaganda to pieces, <i>especially when this kid stabbed it twenty-eight times.</i> Figuratively speaking of course. This time, the priests came not to heal the unfortunate soul. To kill him they came, and they brought a black book, drenched in blood. They entered the Chevron home, cleaning the eating table. A stone fireplace, a rack of bear rugs. Mikhail Chevron boasted to be the best hunter in the land, and he wore the husk of a panther as a cloak. A cloak with its treated leather, trimmed with its bones.  A comfortable home and a wonderful lifestyle compared to many around.<br>
<br>
The priest placed the book on the table, taking the child's hand. Cherub, his name was. Cherub. The almost forgotten son. Black ooze fell from his hand. Rumbles in the sky, in the earth. The air began to ignite in rage. The priest's eyes grew large as demons stripped to the bone appeared around the house, glowing with two black flames for eyes. Screams, crashing wood, claws piercing flesh. Blood gushed as children and women fled in every direction. The priest raised the symbol of his god, pressing it to Cherub's forehead. Prayer beads in each hand. He splashed holy water onto the plagued. Mikhail bellowed at the priest.<br>
<br>
"Exorcism?! You bastard." As Mikhail pressed toward the priest, a holy light froze his body.<br>
<br>
"You will not interfere." As the priest continued work, a demon slinked behind him. His claws ripped the priest to shreds, leaving the house in a macabre of death. Zerah jumped the railing, rolling and landing beside Cherub. Cherub kept his hand on the book. The skeletal horns of the demon twitched in response, causing demons across the village to bow.<br>
<br>
"My master. What would you have us do?"<br>
<br>
"Take me away from here. I... need away from this horrible group of people." The demon picked up Cherub, sprinting out of the house and village into the woods.<br>
<br>
"No... the priest must have made him crazy." One foot in front of another. Zerah ran after the demon, chasing it through the woods and rivers. At a clearing, Cherub kneeled, and a dozen or so demons covered every angle of the clearing.<br>
<br>
"Why are you following me? Leave me alone."<br>
<br>
"Cherub, that priest made you crazy. Come back home."<br>
<br>
Cherub clenched his fists, "No... NO... FUCK YOU. I hate you. Every second, every breath I have had to deal with pain and isolation. None of you cared about me. Days you would go without seeing me. Mother doesn't know my name. None of you love me. I'm the runt, the dead weight to you. You kicked me, spit in my eyes. And that night, you left me to die when I somehow convinced you to let me see the night sky at your little favorite spot. So, no Zerah. You're not a brother to me."<br>
<br>
"You know if I die, you will too?"<br>
<br>
"Good." The demons rushed at Zerah, biting their teeth together. Closing his eyes, a light emerged with a dash of shadow. An inferno rushed and waved through the clearing. Two circles left unburned. One around Zerah, another around Cherub. The book clasped shut and blinked out of sight. With a dash of black sand, Cherub fell flat onto the grassy forest floor. Heaving Cherub over his shoulder, Zerah carried him to Oraska. <br>
<br>
An hour passed. Tents put up. Cherub in one of the surviving buildings, Zerah in a tent distanced from the others. Out of earshot. A dagger stained with softly glowing blood. A touch of ash in there as well. Many cuts, many. Sometimes the demons die and return to hell. Or they have been banished to somewhere else, leaving you in hell. Tears, a puddle amassing. A chest-bursting depression, figuratively of course. And as the night began to end, the dagger was wiped clean. The blood was cleaned, and a promise was made.<br>
<br>
FIND A CURE.  <br>
<br>
[Present Day]<br>
<br>
"Zerah, are you sure that grapefruit isn't a vegetable?"<br>
<br>
"Marge, it's in the name. And for fuck's sake, what does that have to do with Ravnica here."<br>
<br>
Sevastian materialized, "Nothing. I begin to question the people you put around yourself."<br>
<br>
"Seva, we're not going to get lost. We're not going to pilot this ship like a drunken goblin."<br>
<br>
"Fair fair, but my people do not like this place. Something has happened. We best be prepared for anything. Ravnica could be a demon for all we know."<br>
<br>
Marge smirked, "Yeah Gocjekt, I could see that."<br>
<br>
Gocjekt rolled his eyes, saying nothing.<br>
<br>
Zerah crossed his arms by the wheel of the ship, "We should at least speak with her. Have her come to shore and speak with us while we stay on the ship."<br>

I had the pleasure of meeting a certain Bill Dauty while exploring Port Bax. He had a sample of fine tobacco with him which he so generously shared with equally fine company. If it pleases you, Captain Williams, consider The Black Light a future customer.<br>

We look forward to doing business with you.<br>

<br>
Greetings from House Varna. I, Lady Victoria Varna, the late widow of Sir Orvyn Varna, passed through your charming town while conducting official business.<br>
<br>
It was a wholesome experience. Port Bax is the cleanest and most genteel port town I have had the pleasure of visiting.<br>
<br>
I will be visiting Port Bax with some frequency as I continue my work in the area. Would you be amenable to a trade deal? The influx of wealth will mutually beneficial.<br>
<br>
Cordially<br>
Lady Victoria Varna<div class="bbcode-print-bottom-tear"></div></div></div>
		</div>
	</div>
</div><br>
She had her work cut out for her – from her crew’s research, there potentially could be treasure in those mountainous islands. But there were also merfolk in there. She could have to exercise caution to avoid inciting another war. She wouldn't mind it, per se, but Lady Victoria did not feel she was currently in a position to defend herself under the Varna banner if something went awry.<br>
<br>
No, what she wanted to do was find out more about these mysterious triplets, and the ruins of the Makken-Depths.<br>
<br>
If she helped the Yssians, would they be loyal to her? Would the royals feel entitled to their noble positions? It would be no good to Victoria to have uppity slaves, but if she could see what it is they wanted, she could perhaps ply them with money. No, no. Not money, that's stupid. They weren't human, what good would Muurdaan money be to them? She'd have to think of something else. Food? The Pazai would be hard-pressed to share during a war. Did they smoke? Could she sweet-talk the tobacco growers into a trade? Ah, no, then even if the merfolk smoked, they would cut her out of the deal once they found the source...<br>
<br>
What did she, as a devil, want? Well... to see evil flourish. To see anger, resentment, vitriol. To break hearts. To have complete and utter control of those under her. And Old Ys... They lost a war, and then lost more of their people to a rebel faction? WIth pressure on both sides, they would be feeling... defensive, she imagined. Betrayed on both sides. Perhaps wanting revenge?<br>
<br>
Victoria’s Turn-Two-Do List:<br>
<ul>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Send greetings to du Doe and Williams</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Propose a trade deal with the Governor of Port Bax</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Ammo up at the gunnery</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Set sail for the Highstone Grottos</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Scout the coastline of Old Ys.</li>

<i>"Peggy, we've just left Port Bax and are heading into the archipelago with our cargo full of tobacco and tobacco accessories. You should see The Ladybird sail, she's as smooth as a tavarian tobacco, I tell you what. We are heading to an unknown island, I hope to find some potential customers that can enjoy the clean, smooth burning flavor of tobacco, but we won't know until we get there. I'm worried about Bill. He went to a tavern last night where he met up with a few other people, I think the invitation was meant for me, but, well, you know Bill. Says he met a lady there and that she's interested in him. I know what you're going to write, Peggy, and I agree. Bill is a good man, but he's Bill. The last thing we need is another Lenore situation. With the port left behind us, it is my hope that we will put this whole 'Lady' business behind us and get to doing what is right and needs doing, selling and growing tobacco. </i></span><br>
<i><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">I write you now as your husband and father of Bobby. How is the boy? Last you told me he was starting to court that neighbor girl. I don't know Peggy, she's not even tavarian, I'm not even there and that boy ain't right.</span></i><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><i><br>
Regards,<br>
Your Husband,<br>
Captain Henry 'Hank' Williams, Captain of The Ladybird, seller of Tobacco and Tobacco Accessories"</i><br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
<i>The Ladybird</i> rocked on the ocean's surface, a wooden blade that cut across the ocean, waves and ocean foam caressing the underside of the ship as it made its way into the great unknown that was the Untamed Archipelago. Behind them, just visible on the horizon behind them, was Port Bax, the last, known, bastion of civilization on this frontier. Blackburners, Shovel Knights and Spinning Handgunners  walked to and fro, pulling lines, adjusting the sail, swabbing the deck, their work was concise, consistent and constant... Save for the occasional pauses where they'd take a quick smoke break, but there was nothing wrong with it. The real crime would be to deny a hard working man the smooth, clean burning flavor of tobacco. The smoke that lazily wafted into the air from any single pipe, cigarette or cigar was a small thing that would not stick away, the beautiful, soothing scent of freshly burnt tobacco primed to be stolen away by a strong sea breeze, but bring together a hundred of them and it created a constant haze of smoke that could sink and attach to everything. The wood, the sails, the rope, the bunk, no single part of <i>The Ladybird</i> would be void of that divine, heavenly tobacco flavoring.<br>
<br>
Captain Henry 'Hank' Williams stood on the helm of the ship, the strong, sturdy Tavarian hardwood wheel filled his calloused hands just right. This old gal could take a hell of a beating and keep on chugging, there was no better vessel to carry a cargo as precious as tobacco in the whole archipelago and no finer crew to gently guide her across the waves to her waiting customers.  Yes, somewhere out on those waves were islands full of people with their own customs and cultures, but none of them had that smooth, clean burning tobacco, it was his sacred duty to see that need fulfilled. His chest swelled with pride as he took a long drag on his pipe before he released it back out in a long steady stream of smoke, there was no finer feeling in the world, tell you what. <br>
<br>
"Captain!" a nasally voice called from behind and Hank had just enough time to close his eyes and let out a long, slow sigh before he turned his head to spot Rusty Shackles sprinting up the wooden steps, "They're here!"<br>
<br>
"Dammit Rusty, what's here and keep your voice down, you're scaring <i>Ladybird</i>," Hank said as his a vein in his forehead throbbed and his teeth grounded down on his pipe. <br>
<br>
"She should be scared! I saw them! Off in the distance," Rusty said as he rolled a new cigarette with steady hands and popped it into his mouth, "Crab Men," he finished with finality, as if the very essence of the word should send good, strong Tavarian men screaming for the hills.<br>
<br>
"There is no such thing as Crab Men, Rusty," Hank said as he rolled his eyes, "Why are you scrubbing the deck? The varnish is going to wear off if you don't-Hey! Those are Bill's shoes."<br>
<br>
"Why?" Rusty said as he took a long drag on his cigarette, "He's good as dead, what's the difference? He would have wanted me to have it."<br>
<br>
"Bill isn't going to die," Hank said as he gently adjusted the coarse of The Ladybird.<br>
<br>
"Yes, he is. You've heard that story he's been on about. Of 'Lady Varna'," Rusty said as he blew a smoke, "No non-reptilian agent of the Tavarian government would ever be interested in a man like Bill. But she could be the leader of the Crab Men."<br>
<br>
Hank rubbed his eyes with his free hand, as he tried to rub the annoyance and frustration away.<br>
<br>
"They're out there Hank. They want to steal all our metal and build a metal ship to sail across the stars where they will join up with the lobster women and breed an army of lobster/crab hybrids that will suck our intestines out to lay their eggs in," Rusty said as he adjusted the dark reflective glasses that sat over his beady eyes, "The lizard overlords in Tavara don't want us to know about them because they have a secret alliance," he explained with the same tone he would have used to tell people his favorite cigarette rolling technique. <br>
<br>
The captain didn't say anything and instead took this chance to take a long, steady draw on his pipe, letting the smooth, clean burning tobacco fill his lungs and clear his mind of Rusty's stupidity. <br>
<br>
"Ha- Captain!" The loud, but somehow demure, voice of Bill said breaking over the momentary silence and peace that had settled over the helm, "Do you know when we're coming back?" <br>
<br>
"No, Bill," Hank said for what had to be the twentieth time that day, "I don't know when we're coming back and I don't know when we will meet the captain of the <i>'The Black Light'." </i><br>
<br>
"Oh, alright," Bill said as his shoulders slumped. His hands anxiously tapped against his thighs for a solid minute before he dog out a crumpled, lightly perfumed letter and started to read it again, "Lady Victoria Varna," he giggled, "She's so-"<br>
<br>
Rusty let out an annoyed shriek, "No! I can't stand it! Lady Varna is a secret Crab Man agent working for the Tavarian government and I don't want to hear about her again!"<br>
<br>
"Well, I'm sorry," Bill said, "But you're just mad that I've found a lady that is interested in me!" <br>
<br>
"I already have the most beautiful woman in the world, my Nancy. As faithful as she is gorgeous," Rusty said as he took a long puff on his cigarette, his chest swelled with pride.<br>
<br>
Bill and Hank busied themselves with looking anywhere but at Rusty, unable to look him in the eyes when he talked about Nancy especially with how faithful he truly believed her to be. <br>
<br>
"Well no one prettier then Lady Varna," Bill said after a long, awkward stretch of silence, "she's got the bluest eyes, like crystal glass on a clear moonlight night. She's got just the prettiest red hair, like someone reached up to the sun and plucked it right out of the sky and spun the most beautiful crimson tapestry, and her clothes! She dresses so nice and fancy, with the prettiest little jewel at her throat and she smells like the finest Tavarian tobacco dipped in scented oils and baked into just the best bread there ever wa-" <br>
<br>
<i>"I-tell-you-what-man-you-know-it-getting-ugly-in-here-I-hear-Bill-one-more-time-about-that-lady-gonna-get-dem-ass-whoopin'-on-him,"</i> the rapid fire voice of Boom, mercifully, interrupted Bill's talk of the mysterious woman's endless beauty and qualities. Boom was carrying a wood platter that had four, full mugs of grog carefully balanced on it. He approached the group and each one took a mug, offering a nod or thanks to the First Mate for his tireless work.<br>
<br>
Hank slipped the pipe in the corner of his mouth and took a long sip, "Yep," he said.<br>
<br>
"Yep," Rusty followed, the cigarette held loosely in his lips.<br>
<br>
"Mhm," Boom went next.<br>
<br>
There was a small silence and all three men looked at Bill, a large dopey smile on his face as he held the grog and crumpled letter in each hand. He looked back at them and let out a small squeal, "She likes me~ and when she smiles..."<br>
<br>
<b>Orders/Actions</b><br>
1. Sail to the Ghost Fort and Scout. Scouting team will be Rusty Shackles with Disaster Preparedness and Counter-Intelligence along with 3 Shovel Knights, 5 Spinning Handgunners and 6 Burner Blacks.<br>
<br>
2. Captain Hank, and the two Puff Puff Pacifist, will look around for any interesting or unique plants they can crossbreed tobacco plants with. If the island appears to be 'dead' or void of plant life, Captain Hank will instead organize a friendly game of 'Pigskin' to improve morale, dividing the crew into two teams: Longhorns and Sooners.<br>

	</div></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445264" style="display: none;"><span class="bbcode-justify">In the lavish castle of the Fair Isles, Prince Airdan was born as the youngest child and only son to the King and Queen. With dark hair, golden eyes, olive skin, Airdan was considered perfect in their eyes. The Prince even possessed strong, magical abilities at a young age. He was just a couple of years old when his mother went to fetch him from his cradle and the infant Prince had covered his royal cot with luscious vines and flowers in his sleep. The entire kingdom celebrated his birth. His servants doted on him to no end. They brought him new toys if his others were broken. They fetched him the freshest fruits on command. They even tended to the scrapes on his knees if he tripped on his own shoe laces. The King and Queen even displayed their stronger affections and favoritism.<br>
<br>
But Prince Airdan’s parents also display their strict expectations. Prince Airdan was to be nothing short of perfect to the public eye. They dictated how he would be dressed, groomed, how he would eat, what he would eat, when he could eat, when he could play, who he could play with, and so on. He is the polite and charming diplomat as his people would expect him to be. He can be light on his feet in a flowing waltz or steady in a sword fight. Receiving any ounce of praise from his parents means the world to him. But Prince Airdan’s spoiled life created a new sense of jealousy for his older sister, Princess Eldrina. Prince Airdan also feels a shallow jealousy for his older sister, who seems to live a much more liberal life. Despite this, he longs for his sister’s approval, and when he has the opportunity, for her company as well. But Eldrina is often more distant with him.<br>
<br>
Arranged marriage is just another part of Prince Airdan’s expected responsibilities and the kingdom is preparing for a wedding that will maintain the peace treaty between the humans and the elves (since the other option is war). The King has arranged for his magical ship, <i>The Enchantress</i> to be armed with weapons, supplies, and elves for the prince’s journey to the opposing nation. Meeting his fiancée is the first step.</span><br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445265" style="display: none;"><span class="bbcode-justify"><b>Akluitok of the Clavenshire Pack-Ice (1 point) --</b> Indigenous peoples of Princess Cordelia's settled homeland, The "Aklu" are an ancient culture with Animistic traditions, and share close culture bonds with Sea Lions and Orca Whales. Expert fishermen and sailors, they are nonetheless somewhat out of place in the tropical archipelagos so far from home. That said they are happy and dedicated people, and their faith can, with enough voices, bring their aforementioned Totem animals to aid them.<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left: 20px"><b>Mildly Relentless –</b> This allows the unit during single combat or in battle to declare ONE ROUND as a relentless attack. This attack costs double fatigue but is rolled as 3d6 (regardless of dice required) and translated into place of any requested roll.​</div><br>
 <b>The Springborn (2 points) –</b> young elves just learning their first martial skills and arts, their low cost belies their expert archery, though they are only decent in melee, preferring to fall back or flee rather than die on the field. "Elven blood is too expensive to trade for anything less" is a popular springborn saying. Cautious. Double-firing.<br>
<br>
<b>The Summerborn (5 points) –</b> adult elves who are elite warriors and archers, as well as every five Summerborn form a "Frond" that practices a certain Art, Trade or specialty. They are GREAT at motivating lesser troops. Light-Heavy Armor (made of vines and wood), Chain Reaction (missiles can hit 1d4 targets), Disciplined. Although willing to die for the cause, their losses are mourned by all elves.<br>
(losses may effect morale)<br>
<br>
<b>The Autumnborn (8 points) –</b> Putting down their weapons to lead with oratory, performance and intellect, the Autumnborn Lay down their arms to masters arts and trades. Each One is granted two expertise/specialties, determined at purchase. All are consummate diplomats and arcanists (losses WILL effect morale) -- (pick one sphere at 4, or two spheres at 3 -- 2 specialties) -- "Noncombatant" descriptor. Leader/expert unit.<br>
<br>
<b>The Winterborn (10 points) –</b> Having mastered their arts and the ways of fighting, strategy, and the sword, each winterborn is a hero in their own right. With centuries of practice, everything they do is masterful and of preternatural grace. They have one chosen specialty each (a "mastery") and two spheres at 4 -- though ALL winterborn use the same magic in the venture. (pick 2 spheres at 4 -- 1 mastery) "Tireless", "Point-blank shot", "Withering Fire", "Tandem fighting" descriptors. The loss of a winterborn is a true loss to all elvenkind, and their lives should be risked sparingly or not at all. If they must die, it must be worth it, and even then there may be a reckoning.</span></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445266" style="display: none;"><b>The Enchantress</b> <br>

“I’m still not sure I understand your decisions, Prince Airdan. We don’t know this goblin or his intentions. He could be running away with your wealth. You need to be more careful outside the kingdom,” Haemyth lectured.<br>
<br>
“I am just as concerned for my own safety as you are, Haemyth,” the prince smiled, “and that is why I bargained with the goblin to train our Aklu warriors. He seems more than willing to aide our crew for a fair price.” His words did not seem to comfort or change the ill expression on the Winterborn’s face. But it was at least comforting to the Prince knowing more of his soldiers would be better equipped for whatever the archipelagos would show them. “Come, have a drink.” The prince slid a tankard of beer across the table. The two elves sipped and the buzz of the tavern surrounded them.<br>
<br>
“What do you imagine your bride looks like?” Haemyth smiled to break the silence between them. The prince’s right eyebrow raised slightly. He never gave it much thought. “I imagine she might be pale like the snow. But her personality is warm, like a golden campfire.”<br>
<br>
“Have you visited Clavenshire before, Haemyth?” the prince wondered.<br>
<br>
“No, never,” the Winterborn replied. “In fact, I have no reason to travel to any human lands outside your arranged engagement.” The prince harbored a deep apprehension about his journey to Clavenshire, long before the witches revealed his fate within the Harrow cards, and it burrowed itself further into his stomach knowing Haemyth knew just as much about Clavenshire as he did. “Are you worried, Prince Airdan?”<br>
<br>
“Yes, a little.” The Prince couldn’t lie, at least, not to Haemyth. “Wouldn’t you feel the same?” Haemyth paused to take another sip of his drink and placed a steady hand over the prince’s shoulder.<br>
<br>
“You, my good lad, are the Elf Prince of Fair Isles.” Haemyth looked straight at the prince. “You possess godly powers that manifested at your birth, you are as beautiful as the nature which you create, you are cherished by your subjects, you have achieved so much since you were an elfling. Should there be anything you ever worry about- a woman is one of the last things on that list.”<br>

<br>
It was suddenly cool, even cold as Zerah and associated landed in the silty bay by the ruins of a long-ago burned dock and disembarked to see Ravrica -- a much younger version of her -- Waiting to receive them on the beach... No servants were evident, but a delightful looking spread was laid out before the expected guests.<br>
<br>
Zerah and company, out of politeness, settled at the askew table quarter buried in the sand and Ravnica sat on a cushion slightly above the sand on her descended edge of the welcome table, while the visiting folk sat on the higher end of the table and examined the pastries and drink that lay out before them. </li>
</ol>"It's been a while since we had guests -- and we have little else but guests to serve" Smile Ravnica, dropping a rotted eyeball into her tea nonchalantly like a sugarlump... the tea stirred red... a crimson of blood. Sorry that the last visitors haven't kept so well, but you'll be staying a while won't you Zerah and friends... you'll be saying a LONG TIME..<br>
<br>
The linens on the lopsided table began to drip with blood, the tea was blood, the pastries on offer, rotted flesh. Looming in the dunes to the west, the hot mirage returned... a grand picnic of natives being pulled from the oases by Ravnica's servants and retinue, with them being beheaded and eaten in the sand-covered fields...<br>
<br>
Zerah put up wards to keep the maleficence from growing -- and decided to beat a swift retreat. The alternative was to be drawn into Ravnica's house of nightmares -- which they would not dare without more understanding and magical backup...<br>
<br>
"Oh, you are leaving already? It's been so lonely since the staff had to resort to eating the natives.... AND EVEN LONELIER WHEN WE CAUGHT THEM ALL AND WERE FORCED TO TURN ON EACH OTHER... LONELIER STILL WHEN WE LOST ALL HOPE, Dear guests! (her eyes, ears and nose pouring blood on her black and white garments.... Zerah knew if they did not extricate now, they would be lost in the haunted house -- and directly at odds with a terribly haunting.<br>
<br>
Zerah and friends excused themselves nobly and backed to the dock boarding the skiffs. <br>
<br>
"Surely you can't stay for a few eons, friends? Ravnica said as she waved a bloody hankerchief and began to eat her other hand absentminded-ly. <br>
<br>
"Lady Fingers... they takes just like Lady Fingers...." Ravnica burbled with her mouth full as Zerah and host noped the fuck out of there... <br>
<br>
"We'll go to Sandbar crocodile, fleeing this horrorshow -- When we have more magic we will purge this place."<br>
<br>
_____________________________<br>
<br>
They moved to and scouted SANDBAR CROCODILE, leaving RAVNICA'S SANDBOX well behind them, not telling the crew or anyone else curious in the venture of the horrors they'd seen. <br>
<br>
Sandbar Crocodile had Goblins running all over it -- apparently moving in mutually intimidating circles with the giant scorpions that lived there. <a href="/members/trektek.72944/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="72944" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId92">

 Dagget Daggerson and his Goblin Venture had already reached here, and seemed to be making decisions on what to do next with the island.<br>
<br>
Points of interest were a buried Mausoleum that did not emit the horrible dark radiance of Ravnica's Haunt -- and it seemed mana crystals and strange water plants grew at an oasis among the primarily desert island. Zerah noticed that scorpions went into a great crevasse north of the island to eat and rest, and took all care not to provoke the goblins OR the skeletons. <br>
<br>
In the shallows rotted the top half of an old merchant ship... tiny imps and mephits (minor demons) putting on some strange play as crew, pretending to sail the wreck through the shallow waters where it could not move... One flying mephit/imp wearing a balding felt captains hat waved a flag of commerce and parley... "Have any wood for trade? We, Hell's Javelin, need supplies to get seaworthy again!"<br>
<br>
Zerah didn't know how to answer....</div>

2 Kuo Toa Corpulents (Astral 3/ Water 3)<br>
2 Units of Spices<br>
<br>
<br>
Trading with Ayan Bakur was Easier than the perfectly normal people anticipated. They were a nice if not worried community, liviing off subsistence farming, Spider-milking (for poison and silk) and under the temple, a particularly clever bookcase specializing in espionage and stealth learned of a DIAMOND MINE hidden underneath the temple which likely justified the communities existence (the visiting of outsiders often enough to trade diamonds for whatever they needed) It also turned out beyond the forest the island was purportedly crawling with aggressive, fast, and ravenous demons resulting from some magical catastrophe originating from the ghost-town in the center of the island.  The Women of Ayan Bakur (who did most of the diplomacy and trade, while most men worked in the secret mine and farmed for what amount of food would grow here) were thrilled to see the "Attolians" had spices -- as they were desperately needed to make food go farther both in how it could satisfy and how it could preserve it. The two units of Spices were quickly parted with for EIGHT wealth. The ladies were nervous to give any indication the town had such money to pay traders, but the perfectly normal people assured the people of Ayan that it make perfect sense with their secret diamond operation... things were tense for a moment...<br>
<br>
...Then a bookcase fell over, and both sides of traders helped put all the books back in place. This was a herculean achievement by said bookcase to remain quiet, as restocking it's shelves made it extremely ticklish. But the event broke the tension and the perfectly normal people were innocuous enough to set the villagers jumpiness at ease.<br>
<br>
The people of Ayan had the following for trade:<br>
<br>
Silks -- 3 Wealth Each unit<br>
Diamonds -- 6 wealth each unit (scarce)<br>
<br>
The people of Ayan opened up to the perfectly normal people since their secret was known and said they were having trouble with A great warparty of lobster-folk that called themselves "Homarids" that blocked the way into more fruitful parts of their mine. They surmised the traders could not help them, but if they could bring appropriate arms and personnel a "most favored" relationship regarding diamonds could be arranged.<br>
<br>
The Kuo Toa put on a huge juggling act for coin lest they be eaten by the corpulents, and <b>generated 1 wealth.</b><br>
<br>
And then just as suddenly it was time to go. One of the "Perfectly normal people" was offered a generous plate of food (a scarcity indicating some esteem, politeness) which apparently was absorbed into the very OPPOSITE oriface humans generally ate with. The Mimic figured if it's all one digestive tract it shouldn't matter where you put the food in, but the people of Ayan who were not insulted, were horrified. The Trading group bounced and ran back to the ship waving goodbye and smiling, repeating back the (insulting) words being thrown at them.<br>
<br>

2. The remaining crew and mimic ship explore the underwater areas around the island of Ayan Bakur/Typhian Strait for resources and/or anything else of interest<br>

The Trading party had returned, assuring the rest of their companions that they had conducted great trade, Discovered the secrets of the villagers, and told all of the populace to copulate with themselves... which seemed to be a local custom to scream at folk in farewell? Also -- sitting on your food MIGHT be rude, which was odd. <br>
<br>
Little did they know that the landing party, laden with wealth from selling spices, had been spied by another vessel hiding among the offshore rocks, veiled by crashing waves and spray... Foes who waited still as the strange crew conducted their treasure-diving -- A BRIGANDINE OF PIRATES!!!<br>
<br>
The Kuo Toa priests motivated the treasure-divers, just as the corpulents did -- great fish were brought up to feed the largest Kuo Toa, and it was a surety that if any treasure at all could be found, extra treasure would be brought for the "Fat Ones" -- Kuo Toa Culture demanded it.<br>
<br>
The Ship itself, shuddering with hunger, caught a young whale and ate it whole. Once inside the stomach/hold however a bookcase remarked that whale-oil was valuable and <b>4 units of whale-oil </b>were captured. There was a profoundly smelly clot found in the gut of the whale that was going to be expelled, but it was quickly rescued as <b>1 unit of Abergris. </b><br>
<br>
The Kuo Toa searched for treasure, but found none in the shallow to moderate depths off the island... what they did find instead were great pearl beds, which was just the same as treasure plus food! <b>10 units of food were found, and 5 units of RED PEARL. </b><br>
<br>
The Kuo Toa stuffed themselves, <b>turning TWO miscreants into Corpulents.</b><br>
<br>
and then the pirates attacked. (to be resolved)</div>

<b><span style="font-family: 'gabriola';">WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS</span></b><br>
<hr><br>
<i>Jester's Smile </i>- Sea of Strife<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><br>
"You feel that lads? That's the magic of the sea and the magic of freedom!" the carnie who yelled laughed, taking a long swig from his bottle of rum as he hung from the rigging of the ship. Several others who hung with him joined in with the laughter before all of them were soaked by a wave coming over and hitting them, knocking several to the deck groaning.<br>
<br>
"Aye, and that's why we keep an eye on the ocean you idjits!" Terren snorted and turned back to Corven to finish giving out his orders for the remainder of the journey. "Keep having Deaton and Aurel practice their juggling, I want them to try to get to a point we can have them passing to each other consistently even on the ocean. See if you can't get a few of the other carnies learning some more seafaring skills too, I don't like having so few proper sailors."<br>
<br>
"Aye Cap'n," the elf struggled to keep a smile off his face as Terren scowled at him, hating the title that many of the crew had given to him as soon as they were on open water.<br>
<br>
"Not you too you utter bastard! Go on and get to it before I toss ya overboard ya annoyance," the mystic muttered to himself as he left the deck, entering his rather small but private cabin and taking a seat at the desk situated within his quarters. Without paying much attention he pulled the deck of cards that he had 'borrowed' from the Pazai and began performing small tricks in his hands as his eyes pore over the rough map in front of him. "Thruneswatch eh? Well, we need to start somewhere after all. They won't need that figurehead or those vintages now that their dead, might as well not let em go to waste!"<br>
<br>
The young man leaned back and closed his eyes so that he could begin to focus on the magic that he could still feel echoing around him, something he was glad to see would occur even if the circus wasn't on land but would instead be over the ocean for a long while. He did his utmost to draw the sentient magic's attention sending out his own energy to convey that he wished to alert it to the plan that he had begun to formulate so that it would allow him the power that he would borrow from it. Sitting bolt upright suddenly the mystic's eyes shot wide open and he began to pant wildly, quickly drawing a waterskin from his side and drinking greedily.<br>
<br>
'Blasted circus trying to kill me every time I let it know my plans, can't believe I took up the old man's offer to be his damned replacement. especially since it was this bloody thing that killed him to begin with!'​</div><br>

Scholar Ren Huan, the settlement scholar, and Scholar Lai Jian, the Survival/Treasure-Hunting scholar lead the Taskmasters and workers to build a defensive perimeter and traps for the upcoming battle. The specialty of the Burning Riders was kept in mind so they will focus on creating defenses that would be advantageous against cavalry as well as complementing their troops such as the Empyreans Corps. Instead of being lethal, the traps would be intended to impede and eliminate or at least reduce cavalry advantages while maximizing infantry advantages. Once you go into the zone, it would be harder to retreat as well. <br>
<br>
Some workers were given different colored fireworks and deployed to act as sentries. They will hide and relay information through the fireworks they would launch. Red means the Burning Riders are approaching, Orange means Arafelle is present, Yellow means the Wight is present, Green means the scale robe has been spotted, and Black means the enemy troops outnumber the expedition.</div>

<br>
Defense preparation: Obsidian was light enough to move and sharp enough to make excellent cavalry traps piled amount the other scree and rocks that would impede the enemy cavalry around the Outpost. There were three radii of perimeters, each expected to take the enemy one cannon volley to navigate. The circles were progressively smaller, but more densely packed with obstructions and rougher terrain. <br>
<br>
The fireworks were distributed, but the excess (they had found a lot of sulpher and other elements on the plates to make munitions) They piled in a covered pit just outside the outpost... If the empyreans could lure enemies into it, all the better -- but astral litanies of INTENT and BELIEF in the empire were instilled in these munitions, giving them a holy aire should the entire pit be decided to be detonated it could harm, or curtain the senses of undead, at least for a brief time. The first of the scouts had already reported close to arrafelle's castle a black firework... there were 200 skeletal footmen, barely clad in pitted armor but servicable and eerily glowing two handed weapons. Behind them, trotting slowly on shadowy horses, was WightLord Eddiel and 50 Heavy Wight Riders, THEIR blades burned with green fire that sucked the very life out of the air around them. Far Behind, an extremely agile chariot, pulled by four skeletal steeds, carried arrafelle, her great cloak billowing like a green cloud behind her. <br>
<br>
But the prince was not there to see any of this -- save the black fireworks growing increasingly closer, but slowly, towards the outpost. <br>
<br>
He and his agents had business at the Volcano -- and his astral magic would return him in time for the battle....<br>
<br>
The Crown Prince and the Celestial Mage Units arrived somewhat winded from climbing the craggy side of the volcano, and enduring the sooty and ashy air where wisps of fire fell everywhere... but the reached the lip and could see into not just a regular volcano, but a bare exposed elemental node of mana. <br>
<br>
The prince smiled. This increased the stakes, but it was he who would be placing the bets, and "the house" didn't seem to know what he might be up to...<br>
<br>
In the center of the volcano was a HUGE Magma Golem, guarding or perhaps bound to a LARGE (several unit) chunk of MOLTEN CORE -- a most scarce and powerful material and resource. The Magma golem Scratched furrows in the semi-solid ground like a bull about to charge... But Prince Long Tian Had at his disposal two levels of every sphere of magic to call down upon it. Would he dash it with water? Attempt to awaken the volcano further with fire? Cast it into darkness or spray it with dazzling light? To have control of the volcano, that golem had to be neutralized and the molten core made his... he had some decisions to make. Whatever he did at the volcano it would have to be soon -- for the forces of arrafelle grew slowly ever closer to his defenses....<br>
<br>
(Decision point: What type of magic, if any, cast on the volcano?)<br>
<br>
(Decision point: Fight (or otherwise navigate) Magma golem in forum or discord? -- these decisions will immediately preface the battle at the outpost.<br>
<br>
The stakes were never higher -- but the prince had been right so far. His smile, slightly blackened by soot and ash, yet remained....<br>
<br>
(Fight TBD)</div>

<br>
The once stunning scarlet ship looked weathered and weary now, its greatly extensive and always prolonged time at sea, stripping away it's rosy beauty and leaving only the shiny, lacquered wood of it's frame. All that remained of it's original good looks were crimson clumps of paint dotted among the bubbled timber of its bones, making the Caridad an unsightly vessel. But it did fulfil its purpose, and stoically so, as it traced the lane of high wind going North. Forewarned of the forecast already, his vestment still wet from his dalliance with the rain, Damian thought it best to avoid the coming storm and ducked the Caridad West.<br>
<br>
 Many of his charges remained silent as the sound of thunder cracked in the distance in fear of being turned to stones, an old belief from the islands of Molochai. Though he had his own theology to preach, Father Damian was not a man to discourage or discredit other's beliefs, after all every person is precious in the eyes of God. <br>
<br>
Still while a good amount of his fellows were of Molochai birth, the others on ship seemed much the same way. The pot bellied priest could only surmise that the curt treatment by the residents of Port Bax, resulting in only the slightest glimpses of the normality of life in the bustling town, weighed heavily on them.<br>
<br>
Such a life would be theirs eventually, Damian knew but for know they would need a place to land. Not knowing which way the storm would break, land seemed the best option. With one of the Gooey Ones, Alani, spying a tower on the Western Isle from the the crows nest, the carl clergyman sought out Sister Josephine below deck. After a prolonged discussion of the possibility of suitable shelter and mutual long gazes through the eyeglass, the knowledgeable Nun could not say in good faith what it was from their current whereabouts.<br>
<br>
Looking to the sky, Father Damian said a quick prayer as he decided what to do. With Sister Masako often noting the need of moderate exercise for the afflicted, and his own worries and ignorance about a storm at sea, it seemed their next step was possibly preordained.<br>
<br>
<b>They would land near the tower, affording the Maimed a chance to stretch their legs before the coming storm, under the warm watch of Sister Masako, Marianne and Jane who would treat the wounds of the exuberant and quell the worries of the fearful</b><br>
<br>
Mindful of the need for refuge amidst the darkening clouds, <b>Damian would search the tower with Vowess Marianne and Canoness Josephine alongside the devout Accursed</b>, the unfortunates doing their best to shield their shepherds even with their agonising affliction. Of course the <b>Redeemers would follow</b>, as they always did, these vassals to the heavens unerring in their duty to the afflicted. <b>Only numbers and danger would affect their individual angelic assignment.</b><br>
<br>
If all was clear, the Gooey Ones would join them on the island as they rested and waited out the storm.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Orders:</b><br>
<br>
<i><b>The Caridad will land on the NorthWest of Oyster Isle near the Tower(?) with 60 Maimed, 3 Alabaster Nuns (Masako, Marianne and Jane) and 2 Redeemers scouting and exploring the immediate area surrounding the tower (Herbalist/Castellan/ Biology specialty used if applicable)<br>
<br>
While Father Damian, 2 Alabaster Nuns (Marianne/Josephine), 1 Redeemer and 11 Accursed will scout and explore the Tower itself (Architecture/ Translator speciality used if applicable)</b></i><br>

The party was amusing but not seemingly as fruitful as the Pazai had hoped, for the diversity of ventures seemed to be working against the Pazai contract even if they left their guests on good terms with full bellies, plenty of drink and amusement. Julian Pazai elected to pursue something more discreet then if he could not build stronger open relations just yet and put out a request for a meeting with those of the Table of Shadows. It was to be an introduction to his needs but more so a plan of greater profit and plunder if the cards were played just right by the underworld powers that dwelled out here in the shadow of civilization. Piracy was good and all but smuggling was profitable beyond measure if one controlled shipping lanes and had bulk cargo, like food, to hide things in.<br>
<br>
"You think they'll bite?" Galza asked as she lazed back in a chair across from her husband, hand behind her head and boots up  on a chest.<br>
<br>
"They'll be curious considering our clear efforts so far. This gives us time to investigate a island cluster that is drawing my attention. If we can lay claim to it, we'd have a starting point. If not, there could be things well  worth looting to fund our efforts more and upgrade our ship. We need to find good food sources or land to start setting up on. Good fishing grounds too, but that will come soon enough," Julian said as he regards the map with a thoughtful frown.<br>
<br>
"So long as we can meet the contract, that's what matters," Galza said as she seems to inspect the ceiling lanterns while thinking.<br>
<br>
"We'll meet it. If all else fails, once we've gotten more to work with, we will begin the Dredging and find the secrets of these waters that few others can. I do not fail," Julian declared with a firm and confident tone as he stands and adjusts his coat. "Now then, let's go see about this meeting. Hopefully they're as hungry for money and reach as I think they'll be to ensure whatever flow of food we can get mustered."<br>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center">Actions<br>

 can reply to Victoria's missives as a free action, to improve familiarity between factions)</li>
</ul>Victoria had left Port Bax behind her and set sail for Highstone grottos, when her ship was caught up to by a message from the Governor of that city: <br>
<br>
The Governor's response to Victoria's missive arrived by Opalescent, Poisonous Blue Morpho Retenor butterfly -- A message-bearing familiar common to thieves made very, very well. Not as resplendent as Morpho Godarti Asarpai, and not nearly as poisonous -- She had to give this mortal oaf some credit for having class -- Even if he had a name as trite and cliche' as "Mr. Black" --<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/blue-morpho-jpg.973654/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/910/910784-274cd6a1a72ae26ff52e7db4783601d7.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="blue morpho.jpg" title="blue morpho.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a><br>
<br>
She would keep the butterfly 'familiar' and use it to send her own messages. It was enchanted to travel quite fast and return to it's master -- but Victoria had changed it's allegiance with one crook of her finger...<b><i> (make note you have a message running butterfly familiar now) </i></b>-- having the creature rest upside down beneath her hand she turned it over and bid it shake it's wings -- casting up a sparkling powder that formed runes of the western trade dialects that would compose Mr. Black's response...<br>
<br>
"Victoria,<br>
<br>
It is a shame there was no opportunity for an audience when you last were in Port Bax -- next you return, you may surely partake of my hospitality and we can discuss dealings of trade and labors, what businesses and service we can be to one another. Your reputation has preceded you, Ms. Varna -- Though I would warn you the intrigues of the Muurdain houses occasionally show themselves even here. Venture runners from house Irreptor and house Wosk have followed only a few days behind you -- and inquiries as to your recent comings and goings have been made, though it seems you have eluded your pursuers for the time being -- I warn you that these ships are, if not after your wealth, to settle some scores in whatever means you may have acquired it. They will be mislead by my agents, as a courtesy... but I hope the matter will be resolved by the time you return east to Port Bax. As far as dealings in trade, I would simply tell you that the port sells sugar, tobbaco, spices, and goods -- for the most part -- and you are welcome to purchase such goods to turn yourself a profit. What *I* am truly interested in, is knowing where the best markets for said commodities are in the archipelagos, and the further west and into the unknown the better, and more profitable this information is likely to be. As for services, if you can survive your pursuers we will have much to talk about in obstacles we can remove for one another -- and if you cannot then there is nothing else to discuss.<br>
<br>
<b><i>With warmth as only you can likely understand it,<br>
<br>
Zeddicus Black" <br>
<br>
____________________</i></b><br>
<br>
Such warmth? Alluding to the obvious, be not so obvious exactly how he might could know of Victoria's unusual... heritage.<br>
<br>
Still, it was good to know ahead of time that rivals were coming for her, she could expect no less, jilted families, withered ambitions and (ahem) stolen fortunes and inheritances left frowns in her wake -- just another reason to travel so far from the mainland -- and equally unsurprising that Varna would not have it's own house do it's dirty work. Victoria would have to wonder who actually wanted her dead for her trespasses, if she cared at all...<br>
<br>
"The Black Light" was fully stocked with cannons, ammunition and powder, so she would be ready to receive any eager guests with cannons of their own... <b>(minus 1 wealth) </b><br>
<br>
The isles of Highstone Grottos seemed to crawl wider on the horizon until they took up the shank of her view... and took into the channels between the islands to search about the area of Old Ys...<br>
<br>
From the shores, Angry native tribes of Kobolds and Lizardmen made menacing gestures or threw a variety of crude missiles at the Black Light, but none could reach her craft at the distance she kept from the coast. Still -- those tribals made their disapproval known with their gestures -- the waving of skulls, the burning of black incense, and the hurling of javelin, rock, and hissing curse carried on the wind. It seemed the Yssians were not alone in the Highstones... Sandstone mesas dotted with strangely and strikingly different jungle biomes all over the island cluster, and even on the same isles. <br>
<br>
Scouting was confusing and perilous in the Grottos... the channels were dotted with shallow areas, some shelves and shoals threatening to run the Black Light aground... other areas were deep blue or even black, suggesting much more below the surface, and just like the islands, the channels themselves had mesas many of which slumbered below the waves or jutted just above the surface... Were it not for Oriax's constant attention to navigation the ship could have been lost, it was bad enough it had suffered one-a-brush too many with a hazard...<br>
<br>
Scouting revealed that both Old, and "New" Ys appeared to be some kind of ancient structures the Merfolk had taken and repurposed from some earlier civilization... the structures were made of granite and Quartz and were very old. However, spying on the Yssians did not go as planned. Once her ship had passed these settlements but once, the merfolk from each Ys, new and old, sent their own delegation which helped themselves to boarding Victoria's craft. Neither delegation would speak to the other -- the baubled and bejeweled old Yssians neither the coral, shelled, and pearled new Yssians. However each muscled for the attention of the captain -- wanting to know the meaning of her visit and the peace or hostilities of her intentions...<br>
<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Choose One delegation to grant audience and reject the other (will have improved and marred relations accordingly)<br>
B) Challenge both delegations to meet with Victoria at once. <br>
<br>
(The interaction can be done through discord scene or back and forth in the forum -- TBD)</div>

<br>
Ghostfort was NOT easy to reach... the ship glided quickly through the water and it was almost too late when they saw the turbulence outside the ghostfort... the center-structure of the ship groaned as the whirlpools and harsh currents pulled on the wooden frame of the ship, but bravery and spirit prevailed, so Hank grabbed the Helm and...<br>
<br>
...and...<br>
<br>
...and he had no idea what he was doing. Navigating the ship had been as easy as pointing it at things so far (Whoa!) until (Eeep!) They got stuck in a (gag!) Whirlpool...<br>
<br>
The ship crashed against the walls of water as it grew ever closer to the center, each pass cracking more of the masts, the rigging, The lower decks... Things became desperate.<br>
<br>
Hank knew that turbulence in a specially crafted pipe could make smoke rings or even other fancier effects -- so before everyone died, Hank imagined the whirlpool was the bowl of a pipe, and waves currents were smoke, and the Ladybird was a pinch of fine Tavarian long-burning Tobacco... A good bowl needed a light for a good burn, so Hank ordered some of the casks of (CRACK!!!) gunpowder (CRASH!) thrown behind the ship (leak-leak-leak) and ignited. In terror, the crew through all their powder overboard <b>(You cannot fire cannons again until you restock) </b>but once the bowl was packed, Hank ordered Boom to take a shot at it, and the whirlpool lit up -- fracturing the chaos of the whirlpool and... just as Hank suspected, the ship flew out and over the bowl like a cloud of fine Tavarian blend, I tell you what.<br>
<br>
...The ship was almost scuttled when it limped into the shallows outside of ghostfort... the mists parted and what they saw was a beautiful old mission-fort lined with bright ivies and rolling with moss. The entire island was a paradise of fecundity -- every different type of plant hank could imagine, and none of them familiar. Boom mumbled something about "Ahbenthinkin ayoo gitcha-agin with the whoo-whoo-whoo anisay stranded forever in paradise, man."<br>
<br>
Ghostfort was home of a large community of priests, mages, and mainly druids who lived in relative seclusion but were very welcoming to merchants as visitors...<br>
<br>
"I don't know how you are getting out of here, my good friends, but we are pleased to have your business and the company of strangers with new stories to tell. No, we have never had Tavarian Tobacco... and most of us are used to smoking....erm... "Local Plants." We are intrigued by your offer though and perhaps we can grow tobacco on this island among the other bounties of the land...<br>
<br>
The crew scouted the island and everywhere they looked there were vibrant plants of every description. Some plants were too packed with thorns or poisonous or protected by bees or a dozen other natural defenses, so they could not be sampled or documented well enough yet... but plenty other plants were vibrant, strange, and none-so-well defended. The men sallied out from Ghost-fort while they weren't enjoying the hospitality of the druids, and mapped the islands plants for hank and the others in charge.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, Hank had encountered a prize plant of his own... a long thought extinct specimen of "Umbrafina Radisicus" -- the Killer Shadow Radish -- Clean burning, armomatic, flavorful and gave a cooling refreshment to every pull of smoke, it was said... The only specimens that hadn't been smoked to exstinction were thought to be in the underdark where they grow to be particularly big and dangerous, I tell you what.<br>
<br>
Hank took several clippings from the slumbering plant, and miraculously failed to waken it. Between this and some other plant samples... they had some serious decisions to make about their next blends of tobacco -- and there was the question of planting some tobacco in the ultra-fertile soil of the island as well...<br>
<br>
They struck gold... Numerous promising plants, an embarassment of choices to potentially enhance their product.<br>
<br>
...was almost enough to get your mind off being ship-wrecked. I tell you what... (map updated)</div>

<b>Action 1:</b> Relax at the taverns.<br>
<b>Action 2:</b> Gather intel for Ravnica's Sandbox.<br>
<b>Travel:</b> The Enchantress will set a course for <i>Thruneswatch</i>.<br>
<br>
The Grey Maidens had quieted down without so many in port. The Elves felt well at home at "The languid lagoon" Tavern... and since the one of the biggest pirates tried to stir trouble with the elves and Haemyth broke all of his fingers and toes -- nobody seemed to bother them anymore but to ask them what they wanted. It was hard, being an elf, to feel true comfort and respite outside of the homelands, but The elves did their best to emulate the comforts and pleasures of home.<br>
<br>
<b>(Morale increases -- all elves gain "Spirited Morale" -1 wealth for expenses racked up in town)</b><br>
<br>
"We best learn what we can about Ravnica's Sandbox and finally head out..." was the order of the day... And learn about the islands history they did -- it was hard to pin down when, accounts of the haunting seemed to go back almost 200 years. Not long for an elf, but plenty of time for a human spirit to go feral, one supposed. That's why you just didn't see many elven ghosts around, at least since the Schizm... and when you do most people know well enough to find out what they need from you or run and never look back. The ghosts of other humanoids were just another form of litter to an elf that was old enough... and most ghosts are all too willing to give up their secrets when plied with the right questions...<br>
<br>
Ravnica's Sandbox was once a (supposedly) great plantation -- but the Hegemon Muurdains that ran the operation grew increasingly hostile to the natives they depended on for labor. Ravnica's Grandmother Ada, founded the plantation but when she grew old, as all human "mayflies" do -- and in the untimely death of Ravnica's mother -- it was said she perished in a freak accident involving some native ritual involving the marriage of Ravnica's mother to the chief, and the ceremonial marriage of the Muurdain gods with the Loa's of the Natives. House Hegemon's primary Deity was some blustering sky-tyrant named "Lord Ao" -- Prince Airdan learned that in some book as a youth -- "The quaint gods of the short-lived" or some similar title... In any case, Ravnica blamed the chief and had him slain, and the natives left the fields and buried the plots with salt and sand so that nothing would grow. For a while there was a "Cold War" on the island, Where Ravnica cursed the fishing around the island to further punish the "Khuul-Khul" natives and, not meaning to -- made the island not ecologically sustainable for such a large group of people. Ravnica ordered more crops and slaves from outside the archipelagos but they never reached "the sandbox" -- so Ravnica and the rest of the Muurdain started hunting and eating the NATIVES... and this is where the story gets spotty... lot of ravings and hearsay... something about a black curse, and more babbling about something humans called "the horror mark" -- Haemyth was given a chill at the mention of that, but was quiet around the prince about it... after all, they weren't going to Ravnica's sandbox were they? They had charts mapped and were setting sail for the Isle of Thruneswatch...<br>
<br>
Thruneswatch was a quick sail in such a lovely elven ship and Prince Airdan's... and the wind kissed it lovingly across the waves and between dangers until they reached it's shores. The Lighthouse WAS indeed still run, by a half elven couple called the Loxenbries. Getting on in years and seemingly going slowly crazy from isolation they seemed nice enough -- They told the prince they tracked Pirate ships moving through these waters from Dagothia to the sea of strife... And if they were interested, The keepers could always tell Prince Airdan how to hunt down or find a pirate in eastern waters. <b>(You may now hunt pirates in the eastern seas!) </b>... <br>
<br>
After staying with the Loxenbries for an afternoon it was time to examine the other side of the island... they visited the brusk and humorless "Hloloc people" -- who offered:<br>
<br>
(Barter only! no wealth!)<br>
<br>
native beads and adornments : 1 unit of anything else<br>
Uncut Rubies : 1 unit of anything else<br>
"Godsbeard" Healing plants: 2 units of anything else<br>
<br>
________<br>
<br>
The Hloloc also warned the elves not to venture into the jungles of the island... "Bad serpent Loas" -- "Angry little local gods" -- This intrigued the prince, and many of the elves wondered if such a beast could be captured or hunted... it was just another thing to consider.<br>
<br>
In the meantime the Hloloc restocked the prince's provisions and wished Prince Aiden "Good luck getting out of the house -- the outside whispers where the gods must go."<br>
<br>
Crazy humans. While the prince was not without human friends he wondered if he could listen to any one of them talk for more of a century -- and that perhaps explained one or two of the laws of nature... How crazy would YOU act if you had less than a single season to live?!<br>
<br>
The elves enjoyed the sun and the breeze on Thruneswatch... but far to the NE their superior elven eyes could see boiling storms and freakishly high waves -- the way to "Smuggler's Shiv"...</div>

"Do not despair," Einar laid a hand on Hrónn's shoulder, casting the remaining swill filling his tankard into the greedy fire, "the Aymarans rejected my offer of friendship, and so the giants must be brought to kneel before I raise them again to their feet." The young jarl's slights made in ignorance of their ancient culture could be forgiven through his offer to keep the peace, but the scolding of the one called Num-lox could not be so easily forgotten. The old ways were clear in this.<br>
<br>
Turning away towards the camp of Yngvar and Katla, Einar stops to speak with his boon companion for perhaps the final time in this life. "Whether you support my völva, join me atop barrow hill, or choose your own path, know that our bond is strong and our threads of fate interwoven. Gods made a mockery of our ambitions this day, but to relent in the face of such petty trifles is not for us leaders of men."<br>
<br>
Ogmund played the taglharpe as he narrated while his two fellows blew the panpipe and beat drums, the skald's voice heard clear and true by the audience of the wolf clan's youth seated all around him.<br>
<br>
<i>"—Can you give us lodgings for the night?” Alfodr asked the farmer Hreidmar. “We’ve no wish for a dew-bed.”<br>
<br>
“How many are you?” said Hreidmar.<br>
<br>
“There are two others outside,” Alfodr replied. “And we can pay for our beds with food. We were in luck today and there’s enough for everyone.”<br>
<br>
“For my sons as well?” said Hreidmar. “For Fafnir and Regin? And for my daughters Lyngheid and Lofnheid?”<br>
<br>
“Enough for everyone,” said Alfodr airily.<br>
<br>
Then Hreidmar nodded without much enthusiasm, and Alfodr went to the door and called to Loptr and Honir.<br>
<br>
“Here we are,” said Honir.<br>
<br>
“And here’s our supper,” said Loptr cheerfully. “I bagged them both with one stone.”<br>
<br>
When Hreidmar saw the otter draped under his nose, he stiffened. For a moment his eyes glazed, then he turned and walked out of the room.<br>
<br>
“What’s wrong with him?” said Loptr.<br>
<br>
Alfodr shrugged. “A cool welcome is better than a cold night,” he said.<br>
<br>
“I’m not so sure,” said Honir.<br>
<br>
“No,” Alfodr replied. “You never are.”<br>
<br>
Hreidmar walked down the low passage, punching the turf walls, and found Fafnir and Regin. “Your brother Otter is dead.” <br>
<br>
“Dead?” exclaimed the brothers, leaping up.<br>
<br>
“Dead. And his murderers are our guests for the night.” Fafnir and Regin were outraged, and swore to avenge Otter’s death.<br>
<br>
“There are three of them and three of us,” said Hreidmar, “so we’ll have to surprise them. Each of us must take one when I give the nod. One has rather a fine spear and might be better off without it, and one has strange shoes and could be better off barefoot. I see nothing harmful about the third. I'll use my magic to sing spells and charms to weaken and bind them.”<br>
<br>
Fafnir and Regin did just as their father said. The three leapt onto their visitors, and the farmer-magician Hreidmar weakened their magics so that Alfodr lost his spear Gungnir, and Loptr was relieved of his sky-shoes. When the three Gods lay on the ground, bound hand and foot and their dwarven treasures confiscated, Hreidmar shouted, “My son, you’ve lulled my son. I’ll kill you all for vengeance. You’ve killed my son.”<br>
<br>
“What does he mean?” asked Alfodr.<br>
<br>
“Otter was our brother,” Fafnir said.<br>
<br>
“The finest of fishermen,” said Regin.<br>
<br>
“He had the likeness of an otter by day,” Fafnir said. “All day he lived in and beside the river.”<br>
<br>
“And brought his prey to our father.”<br>
<br>
“A supply of fresh fish.”<br>
<br>
“Our brother.”<br>
<br>
“We didn’t know this,” said Alfodr. “If we had, Loptr would never have killed him.”<br>
<br>
“Dead is dead,” said Hreidmar.<br>
<br>
“We didn’t know this,” Alfodr said again. “Do you think we’d have come straight to his father’s door? You must at least give us a chance to pay weregild before killing us.”<br>
<br>
Hreidmar looked down at his three visitors and said nothing.<br>
<br>
“I speak for the three of us,” Alfodr said. “We’ll pay as much as you demand.”<br>
<br>
Hreidmar thought for a while. “That would be fair,” he said, “if you were to keep to your word. You must swear an oath, and if you break it, you will all pay with your heads.”<br>
<br>
Then the three companions swore that they would raise as much as Hreidmar asked.<br>
<br>
All right,” said the warlock, turning to Fafnir and Regin. “Where are Lyngheid and Lofnheid? Have them flay Otter and bring me his skin.”<br>
<br>
Fafnir and Regin obeyed their father, and then Hreidmar laid out Otter’s handsome skin beside the fire. “First you must fill this with red gold,” he told the three Gods, “and then you must cover it with red gold into the bargain. It must be wholly covered. That is the ransom for the death of my son.”<br>
<br>
“So be it,” said Alfodr. And he rolled over until he was close enough to Loptr to whisper in his ear.</i><br>
 <br>
<i>Loptr listened carefully and then he said, “Let me go for the gold. Let me go, and hold the other two as hostages.”<br>
<br>
So Hreidmar untied Loptr's bonds and, with a snatch of a look and a jeering laugh that left Hreidmar and his sons and even Honir uneasy, Loptr threw open the door and ran out into the night."</i><br>
<br>
"So ends the tale for now," Ogmund abruptly consoled the throng of immediately disappointed children when the weathered skald finally spotted Einar. "What did you think of tonight's story Jarl?" He asked when they were well on their way back to their bedrolls.<br>
<br>
Einar smiled. "You provide them insight into a world they do not yet know Ogmund. Hreidmar did not list Otter among his sons, yet grieved his death, and when offered amends, sought to profit down to the whisker from it. You think," Einar paused, "that the Aymarans care more for earning battle glory than avenging our trespasses against them and their nameless heirs."<br>
<br>
"Perhaps. Our tales differ in many respects, neither is finished, and seldom few are the sagas where all questions are answered. Their wisest may hope that we best their strongest in order to prove our worth as allies. Even to them, they who predate this civilization in ruins, the Archipelago once boundless must be shrinking."<br>
<br>
"Then let us see it done."<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>TURN TWO</b> Actions​</div><br>
1) Bylgja, a (stormlord) storm genasi, as needed shocks/freezes the flooded basements of the ruins for 23 Freemen, 5 Berserkers, and 3 Skald-kappi to capture Aymaran croclets in nets or by breaking apart chunks of ice (TRADITION of fishing) to then assimilate as thralls with tools of magic, education, punishment, and reward. Throughout the city of stone, baited traps are laid out in advance to assist hunters in ensnaring stragglers that get away from the initial round of draining.<br>
<br>
2) Jarl Einar (and his cat familiar Jörmungandr), Thane Yngvar, Thane Katla, 6 cannons, 7 Housecarls, 21 Jestir, 15 Seawolves, 5 Beinagrind-fellers, 18 Freemen, and 6 Ritter-knights (among them Sir Hjalti) set out to goad the warriors of the Aymaran tribe into battle by making a spectacle of Aymaran thralls dragging away the trees their march into the forest felled for the 16 Freemen (and the 15 Seawolves and the 5 Beinagrind-fellers until the battle starts) to sharpen into stakes and plant in the ground around the sides and back of the entrance of the barrow, as well as erecting scorn poles (to be secretly used as range markers) adorned with impaled spawn pool dead. Cannons remain just out of sight, beyond the crest of the hill, and the Jestir hide in the forest to the sides of the 'trail' in the hopes of avoiding detection to later ambush the Aymarans from the rear, both forces to be revealed when Jarl Einar (or if unable to Thane Yngvar/Thane Katla/Hrónn acting in his stead) blow a horn. Jarl Einar will challenge Num-lox to a holmgang before the battle if given the opportunity.</div>

<br>
The crabs swiftly barrelled through the water for thruneswatch... the back of their vessel cracking open like an egg and disgorging the scores of Crab-folk onto the sand and shallows of the beach just off of the jungle coast.<br>
<br>
Meltbor hit land first, leaving odd tracks in the sand behind him, rapidly washed away by the waves... A great serpent with black scales and eyes like the stars -- obviously some kind of Loa or local god, Waved it's head hypnotisingly at the Elder Crab, and the crabs that began to gather in curiosity behind him.<br>
<br>
"You wish destruction on my sacred forest, but you will serve..." <br>
<br>
(BLAM BLAM CRACK WHOOOOOOOOOSH!) Melbor interrupted the creature with several bolts of lightning and a scathing gout of flame that knocked down whole stands of trees and set them alight. The "Loa" fled like mad as the rest of the crabs charged forward.<br>
<br>
"Not interested" Said Melbor as he targeted a new swathe of virgin forest, blasting it into charcoal as the rock breakers dragged the black wood by the bundle into the sea. The youngsters Chopped down smaller plants and bushes and stacked them in piles to be burned... As well as grabbing any fleeing animal for immediate roasting and if not eaten on the spot, dragged back into the ship on a sledge made of floating charcoal. <br>
<br>
A large group of Crabs, etymologically, is known as a "Cast" --which was right in theme with Meltibor Casting lighting and Flame Cone over and over again until he fell on hs back exhausted, needing to be righted by his comrades. They burned and cut a vast swathe into the wood, securing <b>Gaining 10 units of Charcoal. </b> <br>
<br>
It was then that they saw another ship approaching at speed, an elven craft fashioned like a northern longship, the wood of which shined in the water and the masts grew like tree-trunks from the spine of the ship. Melbor wondered if the wood was magical, and if it would burn well... but then wondered if these newcomers potentially represented any threat or opportunity...<br>
<br>

 knows how the encounter is navigated.<br>
<br>
Melbor was scooped off the ground by the youngsters and pointed at the arriving elves. The elders were the only ones able to communicate in a common tongue... though Melbor always wondered what elves might taste like, and if their magic woods were any better for a giant furnace...<br>

action 2: rest of the crew go to investigate the ghost ship.<br>
<br>
without the legionary caste to guard them (as was their task to guard the wood-gatherers)<br>
<br>
The remaining 2 elders, sea treaders, and rambunctious crab-youths approached the shipwreck near their home isle with caution... They were not prepared for the biggest fight, even though the elders were powerful in their own right. <br>
<br>
The sea treaders silently drifted with the current around the shipwreck, not making noise like the chittering youngsters lead by their elder brethren. <br>
<br>
The noisier part of the task force was quickly confronted by the ghostly and skeletal crew of the lost ship... the ghosts were half orcs, every one, and looked proud and vicious in their defense. The biggest ghost stepped forward... Psychically speaking to the elders in his own pirate voice...<br>
<br>
"Oi! Watch her step, crustaceans! This be the wreck of the Triberaven, and I was captain Glordook Ghul-glut! There only be two things to discuss!"<br>
<br>
"What is it?" Elder Tegbor and Cembor replied... as the sea treaders spread out into a most advantageous ambush pattern. <br>
<br>
The pirate ghost replied: "YOU COME FIGHT US AND SEND OUR SOULS ON IF YOU CAN THE OLD FASHION WAY, OR YOU BRING GLORDOOK GHUL-GLUT A FRIGGIN' ALLFLAME!"<br>
<br>
"An All-Fl.." Cembor began to repeat.<br>
<br>
"A BLOODY ALLFLAME! YOU DON'T HAVE ONE YOU GOTS TO FIGHT!"<br>
<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Attack the ghost crew?<br>
OR<br>
B) Back away respectfully?<br>
OR<br>
C) Something else? Maybe you've got an all-flame somewhere? An Allflame as Cembor once learned, was the soul of a great fire -- they only had one allflame, and that was of their forge. Perhaps trading it away was not a grand idea... but neither was fighting large numbers of ghosts without holy or magical weapons. <br>
<br>
What would the Crab-Folk do?</div>

Terren Laevon sat on a mysterious power. The power of the SHOW -- for who knows how long the circus had been on the march before Terren Inherited it? How many applauded it, followed it, put their belief in it's tricks and magic... how long could such an entity be regarded so before it developed a presence, or some would say a soul, of it's own? Terren never "Met" the heart of the circus, but many times he felt it... and in the corner of his eyes when he was most tired or stressed, he could see it move. Regardless of the circumstances, regardless of the environment, regardless of Terren... the SHOW went on...<br>

Some of the carnies thought it was something that should be watched, the situation -- or even something to become involved with... but all had thought that the new space cleared in the forest would be an excellent patch of land to set up the circus, if even for a day or two... amaze the natives, perhaps?

 -- these characters can communicate in forum or on discord... the present situation is tension about whether the crab-folk should burn the entire forest down, with the elves having a mind that it should not...<br>
<br>
The Circus ship whirled with agility around the edges of Thruneswatch, stopping only briefly to find the lighthouse occupied, but quiet after dark. Thinking better to avoid a confrontation, they followed the clues from the lighthouse and dug up the <b>2 units of Thrunewine </b>and found <b>the Golden Mermaid Figurehead. </b>The figurehead could be converted into <b>4 wealth </b>or attached to the ship's prow as a blessing and symbol of status. (Decision point, mark notes accordingly, inform <a href="/members/beckoncall.25395/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="25395" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

 of your choice!)<br>
<br>
After "Liberating" the goodies they set sail for the native side of the island... the Hloloc tribe, and humans they were. They were normally a very gruff people, but quickly disarmed and dazzled by the carnies smallest tricks and shenanigans. They did not take stock in gold, but they said, for a show, they would offer some barter in exchange...<br>
<br>
(Barter only! no wealth!)<br>
<br>
native beads and adornments : 1 unit of anything else<br>
Uncut Rubies : 1 unit of anything else<br>
"Godsbeard" Healing plants: 2 units of anything else<br>
<br>
The above could be traded for, but for a show -- depending on it's success, the Hloloc would offer not only their simple adornment... but uncut gems in quantity they would not specify -- "Weight of Magic show of power will justify the trade!" Said Tlaloc, Chief of the Hloloc.<br>
<br>
Further scouting Thruneswatch the burning forest had led all manner of beast to run from the jungle -- one group of carnies spotted a humongous snake, perhaps suitable to be an act or oddity in the show... if the circus had time and risk to obtain it.<br>
<br>
Beyond that they drank and ate and bedded with the Hloloc who seemed all too friendly with what they called the circus folk -- "Diamondbacks" they called them... perhaps for harlequins of old that had becoming symbolic in their culture. The Circus venture is <b>Restocked.</b><br>
<br>
So, capture a snake? Put on a show for barter? investigate the trouble brewing in the burning jungle? Decisions decisions... and never enough time...<br>
<br>
The Hloloc consider the circus "friends of reverence" and you can note this place as a friendly port that will also repair your ship.</div>

"You know, reading about ancient architecture is one thing. But actually seeing an example with my own eyes? It's much better." Tyarra noted, frantically scribbling in a notebook, her pencil producing detailed drawings of the more interesting segments of the tower's architecture with surprising speed, framed with short notes "Two whole ages without regular maintenance, and yet it still stands. I'm surprised at how resilient some ancient structures turn out to be. Then again, I suppose it had to be built to last. Without a major settlement nearby, the inhabitants couldn't count on reliable maintenance. Though this begs the question of why exactly was this tower built here. It's a relatively isolated location. Imitation of Azlanti style clearly suggests some importance beyond mere utility. It certainly isn't a military outpost or a colony. Perhaps it is indeed a research base. Which in turn begs the question of why is it located here. Supposedly, there are Azlanti ruins to the north of the archipelago. It would make much more sense to build something closer to the research site. Then again, there might be something close to the ruins which made permanent settlement impossible there. But if that is the case..."<br>
<br>
"Tyarra." Telren cut the scholar off "Wouldn't it make more sense to see what's inside the tower before you start theorizing?"<br>
<br>
"Right. I suppose I got a bit carried away."<br>

<b>Orders:</b><br>
<br>
<i><b>The Caridad will land on the NorthWest of Oyster Isle near the Tower(?) with 60 Maimed, 3 Alabaster Nuns (Masako, Marianne and Jane) and 2 Redeemers scouting and exploring the immediate area surrounding the tower (Herbalist/Castellan/ Biology specialty used if applicable)<br>
 <br>
 While Father Damian, 2 Alabaster Nuns (Marianne/Josephine), 1 Redeemer and 11 Accursed will scout and explore the Tower itself (Architecture/ Translator speciality used if applicable)<br>
<br>
___________________</b><br>
<br>
The Caridad </i>landed on Oyster Isle just ahead of the brutal tropical storm which seemed to pass right behind them... black clouds spewing thunder and lightning and a blistering torrent just dancing off the coast while the Caridad came to a grinding halt in the shallows. <br>
<br>
The stream of the afflicted and their attendants got wider on the shore until it became a river, and a river became an lake of the maimed... around the Observation tower were hundreds of types of succulents... many the Nuns identified as both rare and possessing medicinal qualities... but as with all things scarce and precious, decisions needed to be made:<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Take the best medicines and make prophylactic tinctures to make the sick aboard the Caridad less transmissible, and safer to deal with other folk, <b>(removes some negative morale with outsiders)</b><br>
OR<br>
B) Take the best medicines and make balms and ointments that would sooth the pain and progression of the sick folks ailments.  <b>(increases health and morale inside the venture)</b><br>
<br>
The Vaal Observatory (clearly ancient) had a main door that was covered with gears and locks, which all seemed to slide back, roll away or disengage at the approach of the Nuns and the Redeemer... Strange, but it revealed that few if any had come before them to this place, at least to pick it of valuables. <br>
<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
<br>
A) Loot the observatory of archeological treasures <b>(+4 wealth)</b><br>
OR<br>
B) leave the "Vaaluables" in peace.  <br>
<br>
From the observatory, Father Damien and his task group climbed the tower to the top of the observatory -- Where they found a strange and ancient logbook (the early entries were in inscrutable Vaal script, but the last dozen entries were written in a find diplomatic hand one of the nurses was trained to recognize. Father Damian and Most-holy Josephine moved onward to study the observascope itself, both where it was presently trained, and recent settings that spun a veritable orrery of rails and spheres to move the top of the tower about...<br>
<br>
In the final entries of the Journal it related the story of a Lone Muurdain Explorer and Vaal historian who was abandoned by his crew on the island and forced to take up residence for years in the observatory, though where he was now, none could tell.<br>
<br>
"Day 46 in the "eye of the Vaal" -- The treasures of the forgotten ones are largely undisturbed, ad I have spent weeks copying and documenting both their art and script in the hope of eventually breaching it's secrets of one of the greatest cultures ever to exist for which so little is known, so well swept away were their achievements in the second wind age" <br>
<br>
Day 125 -- The caravan sets off for the dawn of nothing, and yet I must make haste. Find here keys for the lowest caste runes of the ancient Vaal <b>(Gain Peon-cypher of the Vaal) </b>but my investigations have gotten the attention of numerous BARROWS scattered across the land. Designated "Grievers" these Vaal constructs have become increasingly active and active in their attempts to leave their tombs and gain access to the Observatory. While I can subsist on little more than rodents and succulents (lest I attract the attention of recently arrived crocadile creatures) -- I can only expect the grievers to leave me in peace for only so long...<br>
<br>
Day 212 -- The book is tossed open to a random blank page further back in the book. There is dried blood all over the pages.<br>
<br>
____________________________<br>
<br>
Looking through the observatory the telescopes were firmly trained on Smuggler's Shiv -- Of which several points of interest could be spied on the great isle, that dwarfed any one island elsewhere in the archipelagos. The Telescope showed:<br>
<br>
<b>4</b> <b>Azlant Pillars spied on the far away island of the Shiv covered in vines and Ba-relief of absurdly ancient origin. Images of the Azlant defending the island with freak waves and rising reefs, A cracked pillar reflecting images of a ancient device that flung "Bolts of Blood?" at interlopers, An intact pillar relating how the Azlant could drain the inner bays of the island to access hidden temples, and a cracked Pillar that showed the visage of a horrible and ancient flying creature, a twisted degenerate descendant of the dragons.</b><br>
<br>
Another setting showed a low flooded beach covered with caves, ancient unholy runes of "Necril" were chiseled into the living rock... the language of the ancient dead... These caves were at the base of cliffs where a ruined lighthouse, surrounded by a village of grotesque savages, danced and mock-fought each other for food and mating rights.<br>
<br>
There was more to see from the observatory, and in fact it could be pointed at any island in the 90 degrees east and north of it, but it would take time to learn how to use it without damaging it <b>(further actions required!)</b><br>
<br>
Far to the Southwest from atop the observatory <a href="/members/pat.34274/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="34274" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">
			<img src="/data/avatars/s/34/34274.jpg?1544206881" alt="Pat" class="avatar-u34274-s" width="48" height="48" loading="lazy"> 
		</a> <a href="/members/pat.34274/" class="username " dir="auto" data-user-id="34274" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">Pat</a>
 some northland sea-raider types seemed to be building structures in the ruins on the opposite side of the island, and south of the observatory hunting gangs of giant crocadile men, (Aymarans) sought and felled the largest prey of land and sea...<br>
<br>
Father Damien knew he could keep his people safe in the observatory.... but the book suggested that this could only be done for so long...</div>

Julian rolled up the map of Port Bax and put it on the shelf. It seemed like the Pazai were a Hungry Python and Port Bax was a foolish monkey... The more the powers of Bax played with the predator, the more entangled they became. Soon there would be precious little Port Bax could do for the Pazai, but Plenty the Pazai still had left to do to port Bax...<br>
<br>
Where was he? <br>
<br>
Oh yes, the Charts of Isles off Soth BeVel... The oldest charts Julian had, which he'd have to admit were getting very old indeed, Called the Island Avawarin -- from the late high elf, meaning "Compromise" -- and the island was one integrated piece. Most interestingly there was a great gap in it appearing on the local charts at all, but when it did it was sectioned into four slices and had an ominous looking tower in the middle inlet between the isles. <br>
<br>
The Island was now called "Brekhnil Lohairho" -- Late-Southern Dark elf meaning "A (small) misunderstanding" -- curious. It was doubtful that the structures shown on his chart persisted in their current form, more likely ruins if anything at all -- it definitely begged a closer look to bring things into focus. Many charts by pirates strangely called the Tower "Astrid" ... "Ash Terhid?" (Don't shoot?) Knowing the elven tongues was a good investment of time but it often lead one's mind in the strangest of directions... so many words, so many meanings...<br>
<br>
A bell rang deep in the bowels of the ship, and Julian put these charts away too and put on an crisp, white apron. His wife had something special for him, it was promised, and Julian had to admit he was in the mood for a surprise...</div>

Einar didn't understand the customs of the Aymarans. So naturally some of the things he hoped to bring to pass did not materialize. <br>
<br>
Ice was powerful magic against the croclets, and many were caught -- but training them with magic unspecified proved illusive. Doubly so Education failed them, as the baby Aymarans were far more obsessed with eating each other than learning lessons or even acknowledging rewards and punishment. At mornings scores of croclet thralls had been taken... (the biggest ones) -- Only for half of them to be cannibalized by the noontimes, and all that remained escaping by nightfall of the time they were to be broken. <br>
<br>
Setting traps for them also turned out to be a dire mistake -- for it was in getting ensnared and escaping they learned the tricks and traps of the Iorund, them that grew. Showing an Aymaran was nothing -- but giving it a puzzle forced them to be cunning, or strong, or slippery, or whatever adaptations were needed to render such traps inert. The new upcrop of Croclets were well Camoflaged, Cautious, and mean. They continued harrying Einar Jarl's community as the Jarl has harried them -- stomping fires, hurling waste from the peripheries, and eating anything, Food or Tool, that was ever left out. <br>
<br>
And so the little elusive croclets did slowly spiral into nasty-sized pests... and the men of the songs of Brodir slept poorly with the ubiquitous croaking and thieving of the baby aymaran. Build sites were ravaged, storehouses filled with broken objects and mischievous croclet excrement. <br>
<br>
It was hoped that the enslavement and treatment of the croclets would bring the Aymarans out onto the field of battle... but it did not. It lead to more cunning Aymarans rapidly coming of age and joining their brethren. Croaking imitations of the curses of the Northmen, bleating loudly vulgarities from the swamps and the forests as if to mock the Jarl and his people all the more.<br>
<br>
Had the Aymarans the sense to put it all together, they would likely have thanked the humans for helping to raise a quicker more vicious crop of offspring... Such babes were generally left at the mercy of one another, and a croclet, while often a decent meal for a fellow croclet, could not hope to be the tutors the men of Einar proved to be.<br>
<br>
And so the Aymarans did not take to the fields to face the assembly of the Northlanders -- the cannons remained cool and the cannonballs set (those that were not eaten the biggest croclets, at least) for nothing, not powder nor shot displeased the belly of an Aymaran so. The little bastards continued to be hunted and killed -- and it only made them nastier... Before they joined their forerunners in the south...<br>
<br>
As for the staging area amidst the burrows -- several of the hills began to audibly begin "cranking" and "ticking" as if filled with a swarm of tiny clockworks. The men of the isle had to wonder if they had made a mistake disturbing them... To what end, another mystery...</div>

1. 40 chorus, 8 nyxian judgement and 2 liturgists of Sol (Ostag Sydr and Akem Ithed) remain on the Grey Maidens to perform charity work, recruit more crew and spread the Cult's religion<br>
2. Perseverance sets sail for the Oyster Isle, a shore party disembarks to investigate the Vaal tower, 25 chorus, 5 judgement and liturgist Joren Daaner remain on the ship<br>

DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Any at Oyster Isle may engage either of these pirate ships,<br>
OR<br>
B) Attempt a parley with these fast, elusive vessels...<br>
<br>
Meanwhile back on the Grey Maidens the Cult of Sol and Nyx did find a foothold. The community had plenty of folk who did not fancy themselves either witches or pirates, and there was little work on the maidens for folk that were neither -- as such <b>the Chorus Grew by +30 members, and a small temple, </b>erected from the wrecks of three adjacent houses was made manifest for the Cult once the squatters had been rousted off and the deed to the land falling into the hands of the faithful. While still considered strangers and weird folk, the cult found a place in Grey Maidens and who knows? Perhaps a cresh to grow in. <br>

As for the Perseverence, it arrived at Oyster Isle to find that the tower was already occupied...<br>

 LEPERS, no less, and their fanatic leaders of some unspoken religion. It remained to be seen if they would share study of the Observatory, or be locked away from it -- but the Cult of the Siblings could also harvest the magical and medicinal succulents scattered around the observatory. <br>
<br>
Just studying the outside of the observatory Scholar Tyarra learned that this was no simple observatory. Vaal words were easy to confuse -- but there was no mistaking to Scholar Tyrarra the difference between "Spyglass" and "Scope" ... a curious discovery indeed -- but would they need to fight with the Lepers and their attendants for a turn at the observatory? Could they afford to risk contamination from the afflicted to even study the site anymore?<br>
<br>
Such were questions that would quickly come to a head....</div>

<u>Princess Despduis’s adventure: <br>
<br>
Turn 2</u><br>
<br>
Resolving issues first:<br>
<br>
-For the abandoned ship, only wealth was gathered not seeking to incite greater hostilities with their neighbors...<br>
<br>
<br>
 -Spare the DRYADS instead of killing them.<br>
<br>
 Actions: Learn from the DRYADS (5 Shamanwings, 2 Directors) “Firstly… we must ask first if they have any useful skills that can aid us within our journey, such as navigating under the stars or survival from the landscape around us. If not, then we shall simply learn their ways of magic, to better harness our own abilities as well.” <br>
<br>
Sadly the dryads could only teach the specialties of Herbalism, Medicine, and Forestry. It costs 1 wealth to teach a Shamanwing 2 of these specialties.<br>
As far as magical training goes however the dryads were happy to share their knowledge:<br>
<br>
Nature magic gained: Summon Bog Beasts (Combat, Gas Cloud, Poison Spit), Panic, Haruspex (Searches for/IDs magical nature sites), Tame Killer Mantis, Swarm Bolt<br>
<br>
Water Magic gained: Drown (Group), Call Kraken (ritual/price), Scrying Pool, Numbness, Ice shield.<br>
<br>
Construct Fire spears using beeswax (1 Director, 60 Workers, 30 Pincers) <br>
<br>
“By experimenting with the very beeswax we create and attaching it to spears, we could possibly create a easy to make flammable spears that can be utilized by our units for better destruction of key structures that any potential enemies may have. The workers and director shall work on making the spears while the Pincers test their effectiveness”<br>
<br>
By happenstance the swarm found flint on the coasts near their home. While a more efficient/effective way of lighting the spears would be useful... the first version of "Candle-Spears" Was so far a success. Training with fire would be important to control the fear of most beevarians charged with handling it -- but it was basic enough a concept that the swarm produced prototypes, then a standard weapon squads would carry on one designated bee.</div>

<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px">Prince Tian was on the highest balcony of the Arafelle palace, overlooking Lavaslate with a conflicted emotion before sighing. He looked at the Dragon Scale Robe hanging from his left hand and then his right hand where he tried to summon a ball of fire but there was no magical reaction. He passed the robe to the Scholar Song Hui before looking back at the horizon. <br>
<br>
"Tell the Celestial Unit to use the spell provided by my father, the Emperor. Send the scale back to the Dragon Palace with this letter." Tian took out a letter from his pocket and passed it to Hui. "We just recently arrived in the Archipelago and now we've completed the main task of the Emperor. I may have lost the divine blood and my magic, but in exchange, we were able to retrieve the scale that will make the Dynasty more resilient. The luck and destiny of our Empire grow stronger. Plus, it's not like I'm without hope."<br>
<br>
"As you wish, Your Imperial Highness Tian. Just know this, your Divine Blood may have been taken from you but you are still the domineering Crown Prince Tian that we of the Tianshen Faction support. Our loyalty will forever be with you. " Song Hui took the letter and bowed. <br>
<br>
"Loyalty, huh." Tian looked back at Song Hui and smiled. His eyes deep and his gaze seemed like it would pierce the sweating scholar's soul. "You're dismissed."<br>
<br>
"The venture continues. I will lead the Empire's force in subjugating the Archipelago and seeking more Draconic Scales." The Prince muttered as he turned around and continued to. As for his blood and power, there are many ways to restore and even strengthen it. The Orb of Regret, Imperial Transplantation, Horror Bloodline, Ancient Draconic Items, and the Elemental King of Fire. He is in no rush to restore it now, he must first focus on developing this entire island that the Empire has now claimed before moving to address the problem of his bloodline. <br>
<br>
Xia Hu entered the chambers and knelt behind him. "Your Majesty, we cannot confirm who but counter-intelligence suggest that one of your siblings may have some spy amongst the Scholars."<br>
<br>
"Interesting. I don't think it's Song Hui, he is my Right-Hand on civil aspects are you are on military aspects. Investigate the others but don't skip Hui even if I personally do not suspect him. We must be prudent."<br>
<br>
"As you wish, Your Highness. The Corps and I will do our best even if we cannot match Sister Qiang and her Shadow Dancers in this field." <br>
<br>
Tian looked at Commander Hu and chuckled. "Do not worry. I included her and the shadow dancers in my request for reinforcements to the Emperor. You love-birds will meet again soon."<br>
<br>
"Thank you, Your Highness." The usually stoic Xia Hu broke into a smile upon knowing that he will soon met Xie Qiang. But he only gave himself a couple seconds to smile before he once-again assumed the stoic expression of the Empyrean Commander. <br>
<br>
"What of the undead child?"<br>
<br>
"The Celestials and the fallen cinder queen awaits for you in the dungeon, Your Highness."<br>
<br>
"Very well." Tian waved his sleeves and began to head to the dungeon. Xia Hu bowed his head as he passed before following behind him. <br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
Arafelle was bound in the dungeon looking listless. Tian looked at her and frowned. The Cinderqueen's appearance as a little girl made him feel a little bit of guilt which he swiftly erased. This little girl is probably older than her. She is undead and the leader of the enemy forces that forced him to strike a deal with the Fire King. Tian stared at her then looked at the Celestial Unit.<br>
<br>
"Subdue her and convert her to the Dynasty's ranks. Do what you must to achieve this. I care not for the process, only the results." The Celestial Magicians looked at him and bowed. Arafelle looked at him with fear as Tian left the dungeons. </span><br>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>Order 1: The Conversion</b><br>

The Celestial Unit will use their methods to convert the Cinder Queen to the ranks of the Empire. As per the Prince's instruction, he cares not about the process, only the results so the magicians are free to use any methods they can. The Cinder Queen will be a loyal follower of the Prince, one way or another. And once she is converted, she will yet again raise the Fiery Wights and Skeleton Riders, possibly even Eddiel with his leftover gauntlet, making him Quince-Dead. She will raise her old army or as much of it as she could and the only difference is they will now be subservient to the Prince and in turn, the Empire. The Prince seeks tireless soldiers, sailors, and workers. The 2 Units of Raw Bone Mana is allocated for this task. <br>
<br>
Arafelle would also then lead the Imperial Forces to turn over their resource reserves to the Empire. Uncovering the riches and treasures of not only her castle but also the island. Additionally, they also want to hear the story of the undead phoenix and a trace of it. Possibly even have Arafelle call its pet back.</div>

With the old foundations of Arafelle(their resources) and the new imperial foundations, the now-strengthened Imperial Forces will start a massive development on Lavaslate. The skeleton and imperial workers will further their mining on silver and iron as well as also taking over Arafelle's copper mining operation. These mineral wealth will be processed back in the processing centers of the Imperial Outpost. At the same time, scouts are also deployed to begin exploring and surveying the island in its entirety to look for other mineral source. They assume that they would obtain more information from this compared to what the people from Port Bax possess since they are not obstructed by any undead. From their newly gained resources(If the expedition gets wealth from the Arafelle's treasury), the expedition will build a port-base and connect it to the castle. It is intended to receive ships and resources from the Empire as well as act as the Forward Operating Base for current and future Imperial operation in the archipelago.</div>

'Ghostfort' doesn't have a lot of ghost, but it does have some mages. They smoke 'local plants' which I think is archipelago lingo for illegal narcotics, and if it isn't, what they smoke is an inferior tobacco product, I tell you what. Yesterday, I saw them sitting in a circle and talking to the plants, plants Peggy, these druids ain't right.<br>
<br>
We did find Umbrafina Radisicus! Umbrafina Radisicus, I tell you Peggy, I never thought I'd see the day I'd get to personally blend Umbrafina Radisicus and Tavarian Tobacco, I've dreamed of this moment for the past four decades.<br>

<i>Lady Victoria Varna,<br>
<br>
Bill has spoken well of you, I am glad you were satisfied with the smooth, clean burning flavor of Tavarian Tobacco. Should we cross paths in the future, and our goals be aligned, I am authorized by the Tavarian Greater Tobacco Company to establish mutually beneficial agreements.<br>
<br>
Bill cannot read nor write, so he has asked me to write on his behalf... <br>

<br>
"Dammit Bill, I'm not writing that," Hank scowled as he looked up from his desk to the balding, overweight man who was rubbing his hands together in giddy excitement, his legs rubbed together as he moved from foot to foot as if he was utterly incapable of standing still at the moment, "You have to, Hank!" Bill pleaded, desperation tinged his voice, "she kissed the letter! She remembers me! I told you she was the sweetest, most prettiest woman there ever was," his small, beady eyes glinted with something other then the normal lost, hopelessness.<br>
<br>
"Look Bill, I know you're excited but remember Lenore-" Hank started as he look down at the letter he was writing with a frown, he set down the quill and started to fill his pipe, using his well practiced thirteen step tobacco pipe preparing process to clear his mind and buy him some time from this nonsense. The stuff Bill was asking him to write was vulgar, he was a Captain sailing for the wonderful Tavarian Greater Tobacco Company, for God's sake, not a teenager in touch with their feelings, the very idea sent a shiver down his spine, writing their 'beloved'.<br>
<br>
"But she kissed the letter, Hank! She kissed it! She wants to kiss me!" Bill said with a squeel that should not have been able to come from a man of his size.<br>
<br>
"Dammit Bill! Never make that sound again, for God's sakes, there are people around!" Hank said horrified as he struck a match to lit his pipe, his eyes scanned his quarters checking to be sure no one else was inside to hear <i>that</i>.<br>
<br>
"Just tell her that she's the prettiest woman in the whole world and whenever I think of her, which is always, my heart beats like crazy and I just want to hold her, make her breakfast and brush her hair and help her achieve all her goals and have  a bunch of kids and when we're alone-"<br>
<br>
"Bwaa!" Hank let out a horrified gasp as Bill was about to share <i>intimate </i>moments, his pipe nearly tumbled free from his mouth but only his sheer love and devotion to tobacco let him catch it with his teeth at the last moment, preserving that glorious tobacco, "For God's sake Bill!"<br>
<br>
"Oh, I'm sorry Ha-Captain Hank, I'm just so excited," Bill said as he looked at the ground and pressed his fingers together.<br>
<br>
The door to his captain swung open as Rusty Shackles came in, on his back was a large cylindrical device that looked like it contained liquid, "Captain," Rusty said, a rolled cigarette between his fingers as he 'saluted' Hank, "I have come to report my suspicions of the Druid Double-Agents."<br>
<br>
"Oh, lord, what is it now Rusty?" Hank said as he rubbed his forehead, already feeling a headache coming on.<br>
<br>
"They rejected my offer to clean the fort of infestations," Rusty said before taking a long drag on his cigarette, "Offered to do it for a few coins and they refused. Said something about natural habituate." he made quotations with his fingers as he spoke of the ridiculous idea. Infestations were infestations.<br>
<br>
"I kinda like them, especially rats, they're so cute when they dive into the pots to swim around like little dogs," Bill said happily... his smile fell off as he realized both men were starring at him, "Well, I don't let them do it now and I clean the pots! Usually."<br>
<br>
"You are a sad man, Bill Dauty," Rusty said as he took another puff on his cigarette, "Now, I've been investigating these so called 'Druids' and I believe they are secretly agents for the bug people. "<br>
<br>
"Oh, lord, not this again," Hank groaned as he took a long draw on his pipe to settle his nerves.<br>
<br>
"Yes, again! And again and again until we have defeated the bug person menace," Rusty said as he flicked up the dark glasses over his eyes, "What is that?" He asked as he pointed to the letter Hank was currently writing.<br>
<br>
"Oh! Oh! That's the letter to Lady Varna~" Bill said as he almost swooned on his feet.<br>
<br>
"No such thing as a 'Lady Varna', no <i>human </i>woman would ever be attracted to Bill," Rusty said, "She's probably a bug person who has crawled into the body of a woman and is controlling her from the inside! Or the bug people have someone 'copied' her and are now using her for their own means," he gently tugged on his hat, "Yes, its brilliant. No wonder I can't find evidence on the bug people, they have cloned people they use to destroy and hide evidence of their existence! Of course. It all makes sense now."<br>
<br>
A vein on Hank's forehead pulsed ominously as his temper was starting to flare. He had spent a long time reviewing the damage to his <i>Ladybird</i>, talking to the crew, salvaging the cargo had already stretched his patience and now he had to deal with these two dumbasses, Hank opened his mouth to start yelling and threatening the two men to leave before he started taking names and kicking asses when the door to his chambers opened yet again, but this time it was good, reliable, First Mate Boom with a platter toped with four tankards of grog.<br>
<br>
Boom walked over to the desk and set down the platter as each of the men stepped forward to take one of the tankards,<i> "I-Tell-You-What-Man-Them-Dem-Whirly-Pool-Man-Dang-Near-Came-Clear-Came-Crashing-Down-On-Dem-There-Ladybird-Dang-Like-An-Apolocyspe-Man-Like-Um-Dang-Oh-The-Horror-The-Horror,"</i> Boom said in rapid fire as he took a sip of his grog and looked off into the distance as if he was remembering something truly awful.<br>
<br>
"Yep," Hank said as he took a sip.<br>
<br>
"Yep," Rusty followed suit.<br>
<br>
"Yep," Bill said as he inched towards the desk to get another look at the letter.<br>
<br>
"Mhm," Boom said as he took a sip<br>

Dagget Daggerson looked upon all that he assembled before him. Was it easy to do, no? Not all goblins are easy to get together for such an esoteric goal such as his, to start a successful port town and make lots of coin. If, say he had wanted to go conquering each and every island, why, he was sure to have gotten support from one of the clans. Even given lots of resources and bodies to work with.<br>
<br>
<br>
But Daggerson was not at that point in his life.<br>
<br>
<br>
He was at the point where he wanted to make his own way. Where he wanted to be the one in charge and be the one that is getting rich. And being rich in the very way that he wanted. Getting to live in the lap of luxury with his own place to call his.<br>
<br>
<br>
It’ll be a veritable playground of fun, not only for the goblins under his command, but also all those that will come to visit. It’s why he has to make this place a Grand Venture. The Grandest Port that ever did have in the Untamed Archipelago. <br>
<br>
<br>
And all that visit will remember the name Captain Dagget Daggerson.<br>

Goblin Representation, not actual size or shape<br>
<br>
<br>
Huzzah. It was a glorious time. This sandy, desert Island called Sandrift had mana crystals, semi precious stones, Large Scorpions and even a Mausoleum of unknown duplicity. He looked around at the crays scurrying around, some clearly attempting to chase some scorpions that were just too fast for them.<br>
<br>
<br>
This could be the place. With this type of starting terrain, others wouldn’t want to steal what they got. At least not until they’ve already built things up. And well, by then, their defenses will be up to snuff to stop any of that sort of chicanery. He wouldn’t have any Pirates or Rowdy Nations stealing what is rightfully his.<br>
<br>
<br>
He got this venture up and running with his own two hands. And the only obligations he has are the two investors that he set up at the early parts of thai journey. Not belonging to no one or nothing.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Let’s get those towers up, boys! The sooner, the better we can get an early handle on spotting any incoming ships, or Large Scorpions. I ain’t taken any chances!”<br>
<br>
<br>
The towers were starting to take shape. He figured with the given magic of his Tinker Thinkers, the available in abundance Sand and even some of their actual materials such as wood and the like, that he could hopefully get something up.<br>
<br>
<br>
Only time will tell with this bunch, but he’ll have all the necessary crew helping out. He's got architects and engineering experts for a reason after all.<br>

The Mausoleum. It taunted them with its delicious crypty secrets that lay buried and unburied by the dunes of sand that came and went.<br>
<br>
<br>
But now for no longer!<br>
<br>
<br>
Using the Tinker Tanker, it was time to uncover those secrets that have been buried for untold ages past. All about to get covered in grimy Goblin Hands.<br>
<br>
<br>
At least if they weren’t haunted. It was some sort in intelligent haunting, Daggerson would be the first to actually try to talk with them. If something had smarts, it could be bargained with. That was part of the Daggerisms. When he gets things settled with a port town, he really should hire someone to write down these Daggerisms.<br>
<br>
<br>
He’ll sell the book in the port town. So many ideas.<br>
<br>
<br>
Sure, its all just pie in the sky thoughts right now. But soon enough. And hopefully, this’ll be the place. But also, hopefully this Mausoleum won't be something that makes them have to take off for greener pastures..<br>
<br>
<br>
He’s waited a long while, but if things go south, he’ll pack up his boys and leave.<br>

<i>Another dream that will never come true<br>
Just to compliment your sorrow <br>
Another life that I've taken from you <br>
A gift to add onto your pain and suffering </i>​</div><br>
Thirty five pirates of various races, hundreds of leagues away from their homes, sat in the dark hold of a cursed ship. It stank of rotting fish and whale blubber. Its walls were slimy and singed the skin to the touch. Packed like sardines, the prisoners silently resigned their fates in the belly of the beast. Some could be heard muttering to themselves... others chuckling at something amusing that was only entertaining to themselves. Some shed silent tears while others muttered unanswered prayers to whatever being was willing to save them from this damnation. Their minds wandered as hours had passed since they had been thrown into the hold of the ship.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><i>Another truth you can never believe <br>
Has crippled you, completely <br>
All the cries you're beginning to hear <br>
Trapped in your mind, and the sound is deafening </i>​</div><br>
Suddenly, a hole opened from above and light blindingly shined down upon the prisoners. A figure then towered above them followed by curious fish like heads peering into the opening, providing some shadow and respite from the blinding sun. A familiar female voice called out to them "Hail, lads. I, Captain Harrison, have come to an agreement with the First Captain John du Doe and our generous host who is willing to spare us from walking the plank, the Ship God 'Mayflower'. They even welcome us with open arms to their crew and offer to share their wealth with us, all of which I agreed to." A cheer erupted from the scores of prisoners until the Captain interrupted "However, there's a few problems. One, the ship is only so big and it's already almost at full capacity. Plus, the crew ran out of food, so they can't keep every single one of us alive. That said, the First Captain and I came to an agreement that we'll let the strongest, swiftest, and smartest among you to survive while the losers are to be sacrificed for the greater good of the Mayflower and its crew. How this will be decided? It's all up to you, but just know that you must impress our host with your performance and display loyalty to the Mayflower and the crew. Originally, we agreed that half of you will be left to live, but I've thought about it more, and I don't want to sail with useless crew and losers. So, you will have to put on a display that satisfies the Mayflower and the great Ship God will decide when to show you it's grace and mercy. Anyways, here's the gold that the First Captain promised us. Now chop, chop, lads. We don't have all day. "<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span data-s9e-mediaembed="youtube"><span><span style="background:url(https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zZMg9ryeWOw/hqdefault.jpg) 50% 50% / cover" data-s9e-mediaembed-iframe="[&quot;allowfullscreen&quot;,&quot;&quot;,&quot;scrolling&quot;,&quot;no&quot;,&quot;style&quot;,&quot;background:url(https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/zZMg9ryeWOw\/hqdefault.jpg) 50% 50% \/ cover&quot;,&quot;src&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zZMg9ryeWOw&quot;]"></span></span></span><br>
<br>
<i>Let me enlighten you <br>
This is the way I pray</i>​</div><br>
The Captain kicked a heavy chest down into the hold, letting golden coins, red pearls, heavy golden artifacts, jewelry, and... sugar scatter and fly across the hold. The prisoners flinched as they were showered with heavy gold. However, for a few seconds they sat motionless, stunned at the sudden news and information. Until, a plank in the hold stealthily flung a small golden statue into a prisoner who crumpled from the pain and having the breath knocked out of him. Another prisoner quickly grabbed a heavy golden chalice that rolled next to him and caved another's face in. Blood sprayed all over the hold and coated the red pearls that were scattered on the floor. The Kuo Toa spectators began to cheer at their evening entertainment. They were watching their meals tenderize themselves after all and it wasn't every day that they weren't the ones being punished. The Priests began singing and uttering prayers over the screams coming from the hold in the name of the Ship God as a display of violence, desperation, greed, wealth, devotion and faith began erupting within the stomach of the God Ship, all in its name and glory. With a smile, the Captain walked away from the carnage and towards the Captain's Quarters where a veneer of good old Attolian civility was still on display.<br>
<br>
 ---<br>
<br>
Within the Captain's Quarters, a wounded First Captain John du Doe sat with a cup of 'tea' in one hand as the other was an amorphous blob that was slowly re-incorporating. He sipped the warm beverage that one of the bookcases had prepared for the men as a congratulatory gesture to the proud men of the Attolian Navy for their victory. Was it good tea? The Mimics didn't know, but the decorum had to be maintained. The mimics however held a cordial conversation in their heads. "Say First Captain, why did that Mrs. Harrison invite you to her bedchambers?" "The intent of human females still elude me, Lord Ken Kensington. I do not know. Perhaps, she had numerous bookcases of her own?" "Ahh, human behavior is rather confusing. Whenever I seem to be getting the hang of it, something happens that simply catches me off guard!"<br>
<br>
"Patience, my Lords, we're gaining more experience and getting better every time. Last time was almost perfect! Until the bookcase of Biology and Medicine informed us when we returned that biologically, Humans do NOT consume through their rear and that the rear is for bodily waste removal purposes only except for certain medical procedures which require it... it is called an enema, and it is only for liquids in emergency situations. Though, it is an honest mistake that I am sure most non-humanoids would make as well. Regardless, I have gathered you all here today to spend some time studying and learning how to be more diplomatic and learning common customs among the humanoids so that we will not make these mistakes again. Plus, with the new crew members who will be joining us soon, we will have prime examples to imitate along with the knowledge and expertise that the new Mrs. Harrison provides us on how humanoid pirates and rogues behave. Now, I would first like to invite the bookcase of Medicine and Biology to speak on humanoid bodily functions so that we may learn their capabilities first and then we'll go down the list to the other experts such as the bookcase of Diplomacy and Translations who can teach us how to behave and speak during interactions with humanoids."<br>
<br>
Soon the mimics found themselves holding an oddly enlightening, telepathic, Socratic seminar, intellectually discussing what it means to be a human and other human like beings. The scene was in stark, and disturbing contrast to what was occurring in the hold below the Captain's Quarters.<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
Focus eventually turned to a letter received from another venture. One from a supposed agent of House Varna. This sent chills down the spines of the mimics as it seemed that their disguises had been already compromised. Steps would have to be taken to acquire new ones to continue their masquerade. Yet, the actual content of the message was even more befuddling and disconcerting to the mimics. "What does this mean? How can a human be glossy and sturdy like a bookcase? WHY ARE FEMALE HUMANS SO VAGUE AND CONFUSING?" The mimics telepathically spoke to each other. It was then that the mimic that was once the human Captain Letha "Four Fingers" Harrison loudly yelled telepathically "SHE'S TRYING TO FLIRT WITH YOU AND EXPRESS POTENTIAL MATING INTEREST." Silence filled the heads of the mimics. Until another uproar replied "WELL WHY DOESN'T SHE JUST SAY SO?!" The mimics continued their enlightening internal discussions, but ultimately came to the conclusion that no reply for now was the best reply since they were not currently prepared to speak in the "code" that female humans seemed to discuss in.<br>
<br>

<br>
Orders:<br>
<br>
1. A ritual of blood, wealth, depravity, gluttony and devotion is held in the name of the Ship God via a deadly battle royale among the 35 pirate prisoners in the belly of the Ship. The battle royale will only stop when the Ship God is pleased with the survivors who will be graced and welcomed by the Ship God as the chosen faithful while the losers are sacrificed for the good of the Ship God and crew by being turned into Blood Mana/Power and food. The Kuo Toa are to bare witness to this most holy of acts and offer their prayers and thanks to the Ship God for the bounty that the Ship God has given them while being guided by the Arcana and Theology bookcase to ensure that this ritual properly takes place. The battle royale/ritual is to then be followed by a feast for the ship and crew featuring the sacrifices and copious amounts of sugar to satisfy the Ship God's cravings.<br>

One sound filled the air of Oraska Village, the sound of a soccer ball deflating. Of course, invention hasn't cranked that out yet. Instead, a dark, light flame tickled the morning dew amongst the grasses, bouncing like cannonballs on jello. A rock collided, annihilating both. More began to rain as the clouds broke rank under the sun's endless tide... A boy, maybe ten, launched the rocks everywhere. The grass whooshed to the north as normalcy returned.<br>
<br>
Tanned skin, untouched by the heavens, one black and one white orb for each eye. Strands of hair flew down his face. A battleground fought from within, for a war not meant to be waged. The second sun slept at the tips; a heart of platinum and darkness bellowed at the skull. If one looked closely, a puff of black would enter the white orb. A gold slash would charge into the other. The war waged; the generals were chosen. Nothing seemed certain, other than the slipping of the darkness from the body to the shadow. Slowly, gently, as one might take a life. But, birthed power comes at a cost. Not chosen by choice, chosen by potential, he received and his other, true self paid for it. Cough, spit, vomit; incurable, unfinished sickness. Not a cleric, priest, a paladin could cure it. It reacts to the divine power and rejects it. The blight of Cherub Chevron, a disease that inflicts yet never kills.<br>
<br>
Many diviners have attempted to understand the relationship between Cherub and Zerah. Among the many mysteries, they did discover three facts:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whenever someone attempts to read Zerah's fortune, there is a high chance of failure (reading both Cherub's and Zerah's on success) and a chance for him to create an inferno. (Around himself)</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whenever someone reads Cherub's fortune, you read both Zerah's and Cherub's without knowing which is which. And you read Cherub's fortune from Zerah if Zerah is willing and physically present.</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Cherub cannot die, at least from conventional methods, it appears based on investigation magic that Cherub lives as long as Zerah does. But once Zerah dies, he dies. They share feelings of pain, etc, but they can be easily suppressed.</li>
</ul>Every glance at Cherub; every vomit, every cough that he feels until a pain builds and Zerah's hand clutches at his chest. Even after many, many years, it lingers. A pang of guilt, an original sin that seems unforgivable. A cure has to be found. Zerah swore he would find one. He searched the ruins of the north, the mysteries of forests, and anywhere else across the "eternal empire" that could have a clue. Nothing, nothing at all. With Zerah and his two brothers seemingly forever young, he buried his parents, his cousins, his friends, his original party.<br>
<br>
The guild is everything to him now, but the Muurdaan... made things difficult. Religious persecution, subjection to priests, etc.; while Zerah is human, he distances himself from the actions of the empire. Either through being more than he's worth or bigger fish to fry, Zerah and the Burning Heart Guild kept a shaky but peaceful relationship with the empire. But Zerah knew they would come for him eventually. They would come for Cherub to manipulate him to help them. While Cherub would be too sick to be remotely useful, Zerah hopes to find a place to stow him away. Keep him safe.<br>

Nothing flammable, at least naturally. The waves picked up, the wind whispered in an illusory way, and the sun reigned from above; a wonderful day blessed with many natural treasures. Every day felt different and unique, unlike the many years before. Zerah's eyes tingled with energetic sensation. The weather called and sang, <i>Enter Creation. </i>Rest, calm. A madwoman left alone, for now. Her atrocities will be dealt with at another time when more than a glimmer could be mustered. And at command, the thought of Ravnica faded from Zerah's mind and the island gave him its bliss. But, it would not be enough. Restless could be said, and many say it. Wisdom of the crowd? No, ignorance of the masses. Not rage, not despair, not ambition fuels the strongest of flames; they rely on something else. Power and perfection placed on the top shelf so that it may crush everything underneath. No, a strong flame burns alone, in isolation. Burning on inner peace, clarity of mind, and love. The love of friends, the love of family, the love of the world. Not love from others, love for others. For they always say that love is a fire. Just not the one to burn your house down. Be careful what you wish for... But, the Ashen Flame whispered without a word. It flowed through Zerah's veins, letting his blood spark like a forest fire, like a fire elemental. Yes, it burned bright once more. Zerah needed to be stretched did he not? Or did the Flame need the stretch? Debatably a redundant set of questions, but it was asked anyway.<br>
<br>
Voices, scoffs, emotions; they felt different now. The Ashen Flame surged through the body; filling the lungs with ancient vigor, the heart with ferocity, the mind with restraint. Zerah looked down at his hands. How long had it been since the last time? Forget it. It mattered not. More...more... Zerah could feel his troubles fade, his emotions calm until a mirror of still water, and the flame took hold. As his guildmates murmured and meandered through the sands by the shore, the speech of the demons reverberated in the mirror. A purr echoed throughout Zerah's mind. A purr of crackling flame. Demons... playing their games, their tricks. But, the Ashen flame didn't care. They were born in shadow, but the Flame shall cast out the shadow, leaving ash. Sevastian materialized beside Zerah with a stoic expression. The glimmer of awe just under the rose tint of his irises. Zerah looked at him, and they stared for what seemed like hours. Then, the silence broke and Sevastian's voice glided across the mirror, across the internals of the mind.<br>
<br>
"So, this is the flame in its purest state."<br>
<br>
Zerah scratched his chin, "Hmm, no. The flame is many things, but <i>pure, </i>in what many think of the word, is inaccurate. What is, simply is. An ebb and flow, up and down."<br>
<br>
"The Flame, up? You, down?"<br>
<br>
"No... Whatever I am, is not that simple. I... It is complicated. The priests of the mainland did their diligence to figure me out. Many of them seem to believe that I came to be in this world unnaturally. As to say, I was not of creation until I was. And when that happened, the flame flourished within me. It would not be the last time something so defiant would occur."<br>
<br>
"I understand. None are as simple as they seem. But, who came to be like you, as they believed?"<br>
<br>
Zerah pointed up to the ship with his mind's eye, on the railing. Sidd, a nescient. Youthful and carefree. Sevastian looked at Sidd before returning to Zerah.<br>
<br>
"My parents died many decades ago. Sidd is only sixteen. Yet, he is my brother, can't you tell?" Sidd's resemblance was uncanny, all things considered.<br>
<br>
Sevastian raised his brow, "Many times. He truly is a gift. Treat him well as you have, and you will have many blessings."<br>
<br>
Zerah laughed, "Oh, it will be your show soon enough."<br>
<br>
Sevastian crossed his arms, "I am a patient wolf."<br>
<br>
"I thought as much. Now, here's my proposal for those demons." The light faded, and the water disappeared as a flicker in the wind. Static, television static began to consume everything as a black wave shoo'ed the light away. In its wake, only Zerah remained in a glimmer of light. The mentalscape changed. Up and down, indistinguishable. Left and right the same. Time stood still, and while Sevastian knew this to be mental projections. The verisimilitude felt overwhelming. In some way, a tale of what is to come if Zerah survives long enough. A big if... But, the darkness, the ash, of the Ashen Flame revealed itself. In the darkness, Sevastian could see movements, see without light. What trickery was this? But Zerah outstretched his hand and in a handshake, Zerah spoke again... "Enter creation." His voice felt off, but the noise of the mentalscape made it impossible to tell how.<br>
<br>
The darkness drew the curtain and an island lay before Sevastian and Zerah both with representations of the demons by the derelict merchant ship. The imps and mephits. Piles of wood lay near the demons. One of the inner planks glowed in the light; the hue of the plank harbored the darkness. Zerah stepped closer to Sevastian. "Call this an upgrade from the usual parlor trick. The demon picks up the pile of planks." The illusory demon proceeds to pick up the pile of planks, causing a radiance to engulf him and others nearby, "The light shall weaken them, cast out their shadow, and..." Clasps of darkness reach out of the plank, choking the demon around the neck. Mists of darkness enter the demon, "The shadow, the ASH shall take its place. Simple idea. Demons... full of malice and hatred. While I rather kill these jokers, the flame whispers to convert them, to dominate them to our cause. And... while I firmly believe in our need for recruits, I was hoping for something a little more automatic..."<br>
<br>
"But Ravnica got in the way..." Sevastian murmured.<br>
<br>
"Yeah... But, we'll hopefully help her move on soon enough. Then, we'll gather all those old swords, form them into something new..." Zerah cleared his throat, even here... "But, we'll ignite that troll when it roars. How's the plan?"<br>
<br>
"Unconventional, unexpected... will attract attention, much of it. Are you sure this will bode well?"<br>
<br>
"Muurdaan doesn't have as many eyes and ears here. And the Flame seems to have waited for a great deal. These... whatever they are will probably kill a decent number of them if they're not converted. If a conversion is truly possible..."<br>
<br>
Sevastian placed his forehead in his palms, "My, my... Zerah, I do hope you know what you're doing."<br>
<br>
"A part of me does. As we talked about before, next time is your idea."<br>
<br>
"On that condition..."<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(147, 101, 184)"><span style="font-size: 18px">[Previously, before Zerah stepped to shore.]</span></span><br>
<br>
A yawn echoed in the guildmaster's quarters. A door eecked open. One white eye and one black eye scanned the room. An arm limped up from the hammock, then a chest half-covered in a tunic. One sleeve draped over the waist, not the right arm. A judgemental whistle kept the rhythm of the Genie's oscillations. Slowly, a messy-haired Sidd slipped out of the hammock, almost falling face-first into the hull. A strong shoulder caught Sidd's chin, wrestling him into their grasp. A sigh eased out of him and Sidd clamored to his feet, stumbling consistently. As Zerah began to speak, Sidd spread a puke over the hull. Coughing constantly. A globe of holy light highlighted the hand pressing the globe to Sidd's exposed chest. Soon, nausea stopped and Sidd's face regained color.<br>
<br>
Sidd wiped his face, "I'm sorry about that... uh... Guildmaster." <br>
<br>
"Sidd... it's okay to call me by name." Zerah looked deeply into Sidd's face; his judgemental mood wiped into pure worry and terror.<br>
<br>
"Oh right, myyyy bad. I'm good, just some seasickness. You look like you saw a horror play." How accurate, but that also would be written off as Tuesday in Zerah's book. The shock is there, sure. But, Zerah doesn't have night terrors over any of it unlike...<br>
<br>
"Did you sleep alright? Did you dream well?"<br>
<br>
"Not like you have anything for bad dreams." (<s>Huh, I swore I heard that from somewhere.) </s><br>
<br>
"Sidd, please be serious."<br>
<br>
"When you stop treating me like a child. I'm a tough guy, come onnnn."<br>
<br>
"Sidd, you're fighting skill is... trash. God, you're so bad."<br>
<br>
Sidd pushed Zerah away. Zerah locked his arms around Sidd's head, rubbing his knuckles into Sidd's scalp, "Ahhh, stoppp. I get it. I get it. What you want me to do?"<br>
<br>
Zerah relaxed, patting Sidd on the back, "Drink your ale and guard the ship. DO NOT GET OFF."<br>
<br>
Sidd held his hands up, "Fine, fine, but she was hot though."<br>
<br>
Zerah sighed, "Yeah, she was. But, you could have been a demon. Wait, SHE could have been a demon. And, you say that about every girl you see."<br>
<br>
Sidd rolled his eyes. A few moments passed before Sidd punched Zerah in the ribs, "Thanks for nothing..." Wink. "You useless gorilla." Sidd held up one of his books with a drawing, "See, a gorilla!" With a deep, painful, and masochist hug, Zerah stood up and left for the door, "HEY, I love ya!"<br>
<br>
"Love you too, I'll be back in a few... Clean up your mess."<br>
<br>
"Ya, ya, I'll get to it." And with a clink, the door closed. Demons here we come.<br>

<br>
Father Damian was not an educated man, and while he could marvel at the ornaments and tomes within the observatory, it's true wonder was lost on him. Only able to appreciate the treasures with his eyes and hands, and little more, it still seemed that there was a higher power at work, one that wanted him to be here. At least for now.<br>
<br>
With warnings of Grievers and Crocodilians, <b>Sister Josephine set about masking their presence with skills </b>that she had deemed best left forgotten and on which Father Damian had never pried about. But as the alabaster abbess went about her work, there was a visible tremor from her from time to time, as a painful past tried to dredge itself from the depths.<br>
<br>
"Give her strength..." Damian quietly whispered, as he went back to working the telescope.<br>
<br>
With a string of boats circling the island, with motives unclear bar one, Damian was uneasy. Fortunately a single vessel, the Perseverance, and it's crew, the Cult of Celestial Siblings, had revealed its motives and the makings of the other vessels. There was even an offer of aid in the future and for their current predicament. Seemingly scholars and explorers, the Cults heads Telren and Tyarra, sought the mysteries of the Tower and Damian was happy to oblige. After all, with offers of great charity and understanding, how could he refuse. <br>
<br>
<b>Forming a mind link with his Astral magics, between himself and Tyarra, Damian circled the device, listening for input as his eyes acting as hers.</b><br>
<br>
While he had not been afforded the greatest of intellect or practical skill, Father Damian could still do his part. Adjusting the telescope with his hands, the clergyman captain hovered his eye over the lens as he set <b>the device to it's second setting</b>. With only two options available to them at present, <b>Louise circled the room with the logbook, pacing between the telescope and the 'Vaaluables' as she tried to unravel the workings of the observatory</b>. <b>Damian had the greatest of confidence in her, and Josephine as they went about their task, the few Accursed and plentiful Gooey Ones helping them in their endeavours.</b><br>
<br>
Meanwhile, <b>the proud Priest eyed the cavernous cave systems over yonder through the eyepiece.</b> Certainly the scene before him seemed unsettling, with the defunct detritus of a lighthouse and the carvings of a lifeless language, but Damian had with him three Redeemers, guides to the afterlife made manifest on Molochai...<br>
<br>
<i>Another sign perhaps...</i> pondered the Priest, as he stared at the low flooded beach, <b>focusing his Astral magics to see and explore further...<br>
<br>
Outside Sisters Masako and Jane</b>, knowing their duty was to the afflicted first, but unwilling to have others become victims because of their choices, <b>the helpful Accursed</b> a humbling testament to the degenerating disease, <b>did their best to take only what was necessary from the best succulents and medicinal flora, snipping away with surgical scissors at the dominant buds and select stems of the strongest plants in an attempt to encourage new growth. Marianne made sure the wandering Maimed did not get in the way of the precise and precious procedure of her fellow nuns, encouraging them to help clear out and harvest what could not be reused or saved with the Nuns rejuvenating water magic or the bright lights of their Astral.<br>

<br>

Iorund seemed so distant now.<br>
<br>
"That's mad Einar. Preparing defenses is one thing, the matter of the barrow hills was bound to come to a head at some point if we are to settle this cursed land, but once that spark is lit there's just no telling where that foul machinery walks next." Thane Katla counseled.<br>
<br>
"We've only strengthened our enemy and spent our precious time running your fool's errands while the competition is certain to have raced ahead of us to greener pastures." Thane Yngvar said. "Taking the first generation of these croclets hostage for as briefly as we had them made their little ones as dreadfully cunning as you'd originally hoped they'd be, aye, yet those few that returned to the Aymarans know nothing of us but our tricks and hexes. And now you intend for us to rouse another threat from it's slumber?"<br>
<br>
"Enough." Einar bid through gritted teeth. "A shield wall can be no stronger than it's weakest arm. Yngvar leads the cavalry unit, and Katla will follow shortly behind." He laid his hands on the map of Oyster Isle spread across the war room table, "I've had just about enough of this damnable waiting, if they're so eager to pick a fight, we'll come to deliver them screaming to their Gods. The ancestors of these Aymaran argr may have sundered the great stone halls of Mpinkulu long since past, but they'll soon learn the works of the sons and daughters of Brodir do not give so easily underfoot."<br>
<br>
He peered outside at Hrónn's camp. They had joined him at his invitation, proud raiders all, but languished as their hersir led their warriors to no glories, a fate Einar feared he too would bring down upon his people. The only way out of this was through now, worlds made anew required sacrifices of ashes and bloodshed. Even so he wondered, mediating, could there even be honor had in winning this war? Was all they done in the untamed archipelago for naught?<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>TURN THREE</b> Actions​</div><br>
1) Bylgja (a stormlord) storm genasi creates fleeing Aymaran croclet illusions after a keg of gunpowder primed to explode is rolled inside of the entrance of the largest barrow in an attempt to unleash the wrath of the unseen automatons upon their village in the swamp by leading the machines straight to them. She teleports back to board the camouflaged <i>Hringhorni</i> as it makes ready to row along the coast to the southwestern swamp, shrouding the ship in mist once more and providing enhanced senses for a vanguard of 21 Jestir, 3 Skald-kappi, and Jarl Einar (and his cat familiar Jörmungandr) to set ashore, the force eliminating sentries and disabling traps in the longship's path, and infiltrating the village to perform sabotage and cause last minute infighting between the matured croclets and the Aymaran adults while their attention is ideally on the lured terrors of the hills. When idle onboard the ship Jarl Einar carves frost runes into the weapons and missiles of the crew for the upcoming battle.<br>
<br>
2) Thane Katla, Thane Yngvar (mounted behind Sir Hjalti), 41 Freemen, 15 Seawolves, 5 Beinagrind-fellers, 7 Housecarls, 6 Ritter-knights (among them Sir Hjalti), 5 Berserkers (mounted behind the knights), 1 Leadfang (Sigbjorn) follow the shore party in the longship. When detected, the knights lead the charge while the ship opens fire. The rest of the martial forces get ashore when they can.<br>

<br>
<b>The Conversion:</b><br>
<br>
"SUBMIT. THY. WILL." The Arcana scholar gritted brutally as the Celestial mages bombarded little arrafelle with colored orbs of every sphere of magic...<br>
<br>
Arafelle lay chained, her little skeleton naked and bleached white from all the intense forces that worked on her -- blood magic summoned demons and minor horrors to pull at her soul, Bone magic to rewrite her, delete her personality and remake her again for the prince. Astral magic warped fate and shocked her ceaselessly with lightning. The elements combined to form special tortures... Mud of earth and water drowned her, Fire and Air fanned flames that blackened her bones only for earth and wind to sandblast her away at her, layer by layer.<br>
<br>
Arrafelle screamed, Arrafelle cried. She did not want to become some necromancer pawn for this Prince... this "Charlie-Town"... but what could she do? In her weakness her tiny black heart manifested in her ribcage, beating frantically.<br>
<br>
"SHE'S WEAKENING... BREAK THE HEART." The Arcana Scholar hissed... and the celestials all reached their hands towards it, singing it, buffeting it, freezing it and frying it.<br>
<br>
Arafelle sobbed, Her little ponytail, like a knights plume, blew away in the magical onslaught and she shuddered violently, seizing, vibrating -- turned repeatedly with holy rituals, she knew greater terrors now in death than she ever knew in life. Her hair tie, a black metal ring, fell at her feet, burning white hot on contact with the mage-battered floor.<br>
<br>
"BRING FORTH THE BONE MANA. BURN IT ALL UPON HER"<br>
<br>
Arrafelle looked up at what would be the final onslaught. and she grabbed the little ring that burned off the floor with the tiniest bit of slack her shackles allowed...<br>
<br>
She pulled the little scrap of metal to her heart and then THREW her hands toward the purple orb of bone mana that represented her doom and spoke out with a stuttering scream:<br>
<br>
"DO YOU KNOW WHAT A RING OF METAL AND TWO RAW SPHERES OF BONE MANA CAN CAST!!??!"<br>
<br>
There was a pregnant pause before a deep voice answered from everywhere and nowhere in particular...<br>
<br>
<b><i>"THE RITES OF RETURNING, MISS." </i><br>
<br>
Eddiel formed from the ring as she cast it behind her tormentors -- Whole and wreathed in green fire and pitted black plate mail -- and wasted no time.</b><br>
<br>
The Arcana Scholar was picked up over Eddiels head and thrown into the storm of magic endlessly smashing against arrafelle from the celestials and the advisor to the prince was frozen, shattered, melted and dispersed in a puff of steam. In the same motion Eddiel ran one of the mages through with his wight-blade, instantly aging him a thousand years, and from what his peers could tell the process, though quick, must have been indescribably painful.<br>
<br>
The Survival Scholar was already gone, The rest of the celestials putting up wards of turning to keep Eddiel from reaching them, as they fell back and out of the dungeons.<br>
<br>
"And WHAT are the enemies of Arafelle, Eddiel?!"<br>
<br>
<b>"THEY ARE NOT IN CONTROL, MISS." </b>He cleaved her chains away from the wall and scooped her under his burning plated shoulder. He kicked the one wall off bars free of her holding cell in a single relocation of his weight and fury. He wrapped the little cinderqueen in his tattered blue cloak he'd been summoned with, and they quickly vanished through a secret passage into the deepest dungeons.<br>
<br>
<b>"What now my queen?" </b>their voices trailed off in a dark abyss -- a tremendous ossuary that contained the remains of all of Arrafelles subjects -- the walls, the floors, even the steps made out of eager, hateful skulls...<br>
<br>
"We shave the prince's locks to make my pigtails, Eddiel... And I should think his withered eyelids shall make lovely barrettes."<br>
<br>
<b>"Drag him I shall to a fiery dunghill... which shall be his grave... and there I shall cut off his most ungracious head."</b><br>
<br>
Arrafelle suppressed a yawn and a whimper in the thickening gloom and faded into a pantomime of slumber in her champions arms. Yawning, she piped up one last time...<br>
<br>
"What comes after Thrice, Eddiel?"<br>
<br>
<b>"Nothing, Miss. Nothing comes after Thrice, I think..." </b>Then together they faded into the blackness that engulfed them...<br>
<br>
___________________________________________<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Prince Tien Long, in his new throne-room, practically BATHED in the wealth that had been looted from the halls and vaults of his new castle now placed at his feet...  as he lazily sipped a frozen refreshment. Smiling at the return of his Celestial Mages -- He did not expect them to be done with his new toy so quickly...<br>
<b>(+13 wealth from looting arafelle's palace, three magic item rolls TBD.)<br>
<br>
Their Panicked expressions changed his. A cold ring of sweat springing forth around his neck that made his drinking-glass akin to boiling tea in comparison...</b><br>
<br>
The Scholars tripped over themselves, screaming for TienLong's personal bodyguards. The mages scattered to rally all forces to the castle....<br>
<br>
...All Scholars but one, In actuality his brother's Royal Assassin, who emerged from the shadows to slay the prince in the few moments that he'd have alone with his target. The Prince almost smiled, at least this was a problem that would face him head-on...<br>
<br>
<b>(Arcana Scholar dead, 1 Celestial Mage Dead, One Advisor lost (Assassin!) DUEL REQUIRED!) <br>
<br>
___________________________<br>
<br>
THE DEVELOPMENT: </b><br>
<br>
The development of Lavaslate was derailed by the Assassination of Prince Tien Long by the machinations of his own Royal Family. His forces flee to the ship and will idle between here and port Bax until the expected reinforcements from the east arrive. (Turn 4-5)</div>

<hr><div style="text-align: center">Julian stood on the deck of the<i> Grand Venture</i> as it sails on towards the curious isle cluster of Brekhnil Lohairho. His elvish made curious suggestions of what this place could be called that but in either case, he was eager to see what was here. He might very well have found something worthwhile to claim for the Pazai if their weren't occupants. Then again, if there were he could see how to play the situation.<br>
<br>
"You're scheming," Galza teases as she walks up behind her husband and wraps strong arms around him. Julian was an athletic figure but Galza was easily the more physically imposing of the pair. She was built for combat and carried herself with the grace of a experienced fighter. He was fond of her for that, able to fight himself but honestly preferring others to do that for him while he tapped into his more mystic skills to influence a battle.<br>
<br>
"You do know me well, Galza. But then again  what wife would you be if you didn't?"  Julian teases as he rest his arms atop Galza's. "What do you think we'll find at this place?"<br>
<br>
"Probably elves. Or dead ones. This place seems like something happened from what your research at Port Bax said," Galza  mused as she stays close to her husband, hugging him to herself coyly as if to tease him about her superior size. Julian just chuckles as he lets her have her fun while looking on at the tower that grew more into view. "You think Black will honor his word?"<br>
<br>
"He better, or his going to find out what a huge mistake it is to betray the Pazai on a deal," Julian almost growls at that thought and bears his teeth, for a moment showing a hint of pronounced canines before he'd assumed a more calm expression again. "Either way, we'll find something here, even if I have to tear the secrets from the dead."<br>
<br>
With that thought, the ship sails on towards the tower and its isles. The Pazai had come for plunder and who knows what else. The question was whether or not the isles were prepared for a group like the Pazai, for they had come to play.<br>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><u>Actions</u><br>

<br>
"Go with type four performances, they lack illusions for the most part so they will probably be the best choice for these tribal folk, I'm not sure that they would like us not properly performing our stunts and just relying on false images," Terren strode through the in-construction circus grounds speaking to his bouncers and dodging the odd piece of material that was launched at him. "The circus hasn't seen to have taken Water from me yet either so I will be using that in the show as both a safety net and to add to some of the acts."<br>
<br>
"Should we have the usual acrobatics or do you want us to try out some of the more, <i>experimental,</i> performances?" Corven swerved around the fallen body of a winded Carnie without looking, used to it after being in the circus for so long.<br>
<br>
"A few of the safer ones, don't want to risk any injuries when we don't have access to any kind of major healing magic," Terren had only paused for a moment at the question, ignoring the ladder that fell at his feet, and began walking once more. "And do your best to have everything ready by the end of the day, I don't want to lose the business of those other crews that are on the island."<br>
<br>
"Aye Cap'n we'll get on it and spread the word to the rest of the lads."<br>
<br>
"Good, now get to work!"<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><br>
==========================<br>​</div>"Welcome one and all to The Circus! Tonight, you will be wowed by our stunning acrobats, amazed by our juggling tightrope walkers, and astounded by the very magic which I myself wield! We thank you for coming, and we now begin our show!" As he finished Terren launched off arcs of exploding magic and raised himself upon a platform of water, highlighting the Carnies that began to dance and flip along the ground and the Bouncers that began to swing from the trapeze lines. An excited grin covered his face and he let his control go, allowing the circus itself to take command of the show.<br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">it seemed the deadmenwalking would not go so easily the iron shells expedition could ill afford the loss of the forge heart without it all operation would cease and they lacked the facilities here to enact the ritual that would enable the creation of another such device. Crembor and Tegbor took there leave of the situation ordering the rest of the iron shells to withdraw for now, there was grumbling amogst the younger who did not understand that resources did not flow so easily to begin with those of clans knew this well and spent the time to teach them the virtues of a patient mind.<br>
<br>
”Cembor I think it best if we scour the reefs around the island proper for any useful ores till we can find proper mining operation, it will help teach the younger’s of there patient and give them time to be instructed by my sea treders.” Tegbor suggested as the pair moved away from the washed up vessel.<br>
<br>
Cembor nodded sagely. “Yes it would do some good for my clan to take a small break ensure the forge runs proper once meltbor returns with the charcoal.. I sense a gift of steel for us by the end of this.” Cembor stated gleefully only to tune back as see Tegbor had disappeared without a trace as he was known to do..<br>
<br>
the elder looked out to the trees across the waves. Close enough that the copperback flashing signals flashing back a explanation of events transpiring. Knife ears? it seemed they where not so alone and magic too apparently concerned for the health of the forest.. wood regrew you cut it down allowed fresh growth and move on it was a balancing act the ironshells and learned harshly many years ago.. before Cembor‘s time.. and they where coming to pay a visit… ideas already brewing they where magical no doubt and they could prove useful to clearing out there deadmanwalking issue.. if he could get them on side…<br>
———————————-<br>
<br>
meanwhile upon thrunswatch Meltbor and his contingent finished stamping out the last of the fires and collecting the charcoal allowing the knife ears to regrow the forest it was certainly impressive but that wasn’t important what was important was they’d learned there was other intelligent life here.. it must have come form somewhere a port of sorts?  Once the messages where relayed he ordered every to pack back up. form where they where now something off was visible in the distance the knife ears had come form Perhaps a spec of civilisation… and prehaps they could barter for some iron to keep them going for the time being it would be what Cembor would do in this situation.<br>
<br>
and with that the copperback set sail to another song. that the crew sung cheerful at the idea of new adventure abroad.<br>
”from the salted sandy shores and form the depths of the ocean floors. We seek not where but what, finding it now is our lot, wherever the wind may blow, to where the current may flow. For wherever we do halt no one knows, like the ocean currents flow, luck be with us as we go” </span><br>
———————<br>
actions:<br>
<br>
Action 1: the copperback and its crew dispatch move to gray maidens, only the legionaries along with meltbor are allowed to exit the vessel due to disciple they exhibit.<br>
<br>
action 2: the sea Treader‘s and the younger‘s search the shallows around “forge hold“ (crab home) while teaching them patients in finding valuable things.</div>

_______________________<br>
<br>
<br>
The Blend was a success! Absolutely fabulous product came out of it, and there was still some Umbrafina Radisicus left over to keep in storage. Tobacco value rises from 2 to 5 wealth per unit.<b> (10 total)</b><br>
<br>
All the Goods and Gifts netted an additional <b>2 wealth</b> after repairs were paid for, with the druids fortifying the Ladybird with <b>Ironwood Scantlings </b>to strengthen it's structural integrity (so that hopefully they would not be stranded and washed ashore again)<br>
<br>
The Ladybird was seaworthy again, and the cargo hold was full of treasure!</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Telren Lumyar once again stood over a map of the Archipelago. While Tyarra and Durlan were busy figuring out the inner workings of the Vaal observatory, it fell to her to plan the next steps of the Cult's expedition. From their own findings and the information provided by Damian, the risk of staying on the Oyster Isle rose substantially. Though the reward was potentially great as well, with a large amount of ruined buildings offering a lot of opportunities to acquire valuables. And would other islands be any safer? At least here, the Cult knew what they would have to deal with. <br>
<br>
<i><b>Turn actions</b></i><br>
1. Directed by Ostag Sydr, Cult in the Grey Maidens will construct a housing complex, to provide a place for the faithful to live. 2 wealth is spent on the construction.<br>
2. Tyarra Spelt and Durlan Miamoir help Damian and his lepers with using the Vaal observatory using astral magic. </span>​</div></div>

<br>
Crew: 5 Tinker Thinkers<br>
8 Trash Vanguard (Trolls)<br>
10 Goblin Hobbes<br>
40 Wrenchmaces<br>
39 Crays<br>
<br>
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..... CRASH! CHOOKA-CHOOKA-CHOOKA-FOOOOOOOOOOOM! (ssssssssssssssssssssstt! BOOOOOOM!) RRR! RRR! RRR! RRR!<br>
<br>
The noise was incredible. All the scorpions of every size fled into the crevasse as the goblins got going knocking over the dunes, Blasting them with water magic until the sand was thoroughly packed and then using the Tinker Tanker and BRUTAL fire magic to turn Towering dunes into platform-level ground made of particulate matter, rocks, and glass. <br>
Wrenchmaces broke any rocks that upset the flat outlook of the construction, quite accidentally mining <b>2 units of Granite and 3 units of sandstone, </b>that could possibly be used in later construction.<br>
<br>
The goblins were as obsessive as they were noisy... taking the edge off of the incredible undertaking by blasting each other into the water with "Surplus Magic" and crude explosives the wrenchmaces always seemed to find time to make in the offtimes. The island increased dramatically in size, and the Crays and the Wrenchmaces got THOROUGHLY worn-out. <b>(Next turn no orders but rest/rehab for regular goblins) </b>However they carried on with their orders -- The towers had to be made, even if "Everybody's hair's got to be burnt off, pass it on. FOOOM! AIIEEEEE! hothothothothothot! Splash!" Kept the goblins running into the surf while the Sandstone towers, surrounded with dangerous glass hazards, were erected on the outward facing approaches to the island... As Daggerson demanded. This of course required paying some money for labor to keep up enthusiasm -- More than half going to the Hobbes who made sure to kick any goblins that asserted they were too tired or injured to continue working. <b>(minus 1 wealth) </b>And work continued unabated until somebody lost an eye and the job could officially be declared begun. (any goblin will tell you It's not yet fun and games until somebody loses an eye!) <br>
<br>
And these weren't constructions to sneeze at. Well, the first versions you couldn't breathe on at all or they'd fall over... but with the right expertise the sixth or seventh tries were actually quite solid and mighty. The initial misunderstanding that everyone was to build "Sandcastles" on the beach had lead to wanton violence between goblins who were defending their silt-piles instead of building together -- but thanks to the Hobbes, almost everyone had half an idea what the hell they were doing by the time the project finished.<br>
<br>
The Island was bigger from the Tinker Tank converting dunes into landfill and the towers were built... what did that leave? THE MAUSOLEUM! The goblins had resolved not to disturb the building until all other objectives were completed so basically only used one side of it as a place to urinate (because the site might be hallowed ground!) and only played "Ding-Dong-Dash!" every hour, on the hour so not as to be TOO annoying to whatever might be inside. <br>
<br>
Well, it turned out all the pissing, pulling on the knocker and firecrackers DID upset whatever was in there, and whatever was in there was a FESTRICH -- Basically twice as big as a Troll and 4x as mean, the mausoleum was a sanctified prison of sorts for the individual entombed here so that it could eternally slumber rather than turn into a Bestial horror intent on terrorizing the island, if not the region. So naturally EVERYONE was surprised when the wards failed and the FESTRICH escaped -- and had to be thoroughly torched and smacked in the face with the tinker tank to keep it from tearing Daggerson and his entire Venture apart. They quickly pushed a dune in front of the mausoleum and "glassed" it to seal the thing back inside, but it was a temporary measure at best. They'd bedeviled the darn thing so much that it would not calm down for a decade, they reckoned, so Daggerson was going to have to come up with some way of dealing with it...<br>
<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Leave the Island -- the Fetrich is unstoppable and it's time to cut our losses.<br>
B) Have the Trolls beat it down before it gets any angrier -- The trolls were too stupid to fear it, so why not let them have a go?<br>
C) Have Daggerson deal with it (Scene)<br>
<br>
It seemed like a terrible waste to leave everything behind just because...<br>

<br>
The first ritual for the God-Ship was a resounding success. In all <b>15 sailors </b>had survived "the trials of blood and sugar" and joined the crew as "Tainted Pirates"<br>
The rest were eaten by the God Ship upon their deaths or mercy-devoured because of their injuries by the Corpulents who waited to scoop them from above. Almost every scrap of edible matter on the ship was consumed by all, and the Great Mimic Ship felt a strange stirring come from the faith of the relatively small collective host. It's cravings for sugar were gone -- but now it craved worship... a delicacy all the more scarce and precious.<br>
<br>
The rest of the mimics were horribly hopped up on sugar and didn't quite have it out of their systems yet. It made them particularly gooey and mercurial, but the bookcases kept the "Perfectly Normal people" in line, for the most part.<br>
<br>
The ship would need to resupply -- either to land somewhere and forage or return to port -- as the glory of the great ritual of blood would be dampened if the tainted pirates had to be eaten to sustain the crew. Hungry mimics tended to develop "Maw Blisters" -- that is, spontaneous jaws popping up all over their surface and/or bodies that involuntarily snapped at things. Especially People.<br>
<br>
But besides a rumble in the tummies of the crew the morning after the revelry, the crew had never felt more closer knit -- the Kuo-Toa priests were holding proper rites, the corpulents were sleeping or too slow to catch anybody and swallow them, and the new crew had skill and technique to emulate that the lesser fishmen and the mimics alike could use.<br>
<br>
The pirates were decked out in attolian finery and did their best to emulate the mimics in behaving more "Courtly" even though it being a pantomime of a pantomime made some of the activity rather silly...<br>
<br>
_________________<br>
<br>
As far as the socratic seminars for the mimics on blending in with humans, they learned a great deal especially from watching the pirates in applied situations of theory in practice dictated by the bookcases. The greatest lesson learned is that more than two of any limb or organ generally looked out of place on a human, except in the case of fingers, and MAYBE ears as a sign of respect and that you were listening. COSTUME can be enhanced or exaggerated to good effect -- ie, more and bigger feathers on one's hat was a great way of getting attention, as was the side of your epaulets, or the length of your trousers. -- Less so was one blending in regulating the size of one's EYES or the length of one's legs. Although The reading seemed to suggest consistent growth on the part of humans and other humanoids but spontaneous growth was frightening or a giveaway. Mimics still debated for hours about CERTAIN parts growing and shrinking on humanoids being normal, but it involved complex mating rites likely so it was generally decided pumping any limbs flush with blood and waving them around could be a non-starter for most polite communication... Eating people, while practiced by many types of humanoid, is best done in the dark where nobody can SEE you do it... but smaller animals were fine as long as you cooked them and placed them on something made of glass, porcelain, or cloth first. (Carry an extra shirt)...<br>
<br>
(<b>Mimics are now 25% socialized -- seek greater numbers of non mimics to blend in with of different types to increase socialization)</b><br>
<br>
The seminars also began to percolate into the knowledge of the crew at large... an education of sorts... but the main topic of study was always sailing, and looking the part of a convincing sailor....<br>
<br>
What better way to put these lessons into practice than parleying with nearby ships!? (<b>scene?)</b></div>

<li data-xf-list-type="ol">(Divine Sense, Detect magic, etc to detect traps and hidden demons) Attempt to assimilate the demons by rigging piles of planks into "bombs" where the light of the Ashen Flame would weaken the demon and the darkness/ ash of the Flame would take the place of the demonic corruption. The effects of these instruments would probably kill a good bit of them due to the nature of how it operates. All else fails... The plowshares will man the cannons while Pathfinders will brace for combat if the experiment fails.</li>

</ol><br>
<br>
Zehra declared the sacred flame to cleanse away infernal corruption of "Hell's Javelin" -- a sunken ship infested with Mephits and Imps -- From the deck and prow of his venture's vessel...<br>
<br>
The Ashen Flame Abides... and in moments a missile of burning sacred wood was flung at the opposing shipwreck, still burning as it hit the water, still burning as it sank...<br>
<br>
The Imps, more cut from the cloth of the inferno, succumbed immediately as if smote by the heavens themselves. The Mephits that remained were purged of Infernal taint, reverting to mere elementals of fire, water, air and earth. All trickery, chicanery and skullduggery was washed away, leaving only hints of trickery and underhandedness, if such could be believed.<br>
<br>
It did not matter a moment later what plans the little demons had, for in the next moment each one now marched for the Sacred Flame. <b>50 elemental Mephits are gained (treat as .5 units, with "Fly" and "elemental missiles" as descriptors) 25+ Mephits can be considered to have 1 point in each elemental sphere for the purposes of casting spells!</b><br>
<br>
Mephits can also carry messages far and wide, allowing Zehra's Venture to communicate with a port or other venture regardless of distance, (as long as the sent and received messages were 30 words or less in length, the communication was instant!)<br>
<br>
And this was not some small proclamation of the Sacred Flame that welled up in Zehra and threatened to boil over -- Nay this was a sacred miracle.<br>
<br>
The essence of darkness and evil that it expunged was crushed, condensed under magical stresses and pressure that created a relic out of the essences, the shipwreck, and the demons -- From the hold of the shipwreck a single treasure <b>(with 2 wealth) </b>was brought forth -- <b>The Scepter of the Sacred Cockerel was formed. <br>
<br>
Scepter of the Sacred Cockerel: </b>a short scepter that bears the head of a flaming cockerel, wrought in gold and orichalum. Bearing the Aura of Fire and Dawn, it has great powers against the forces of Night. Anyone struck by the weapon runs a risk of being blinded by the scepter (perhaps even permanently!) and undead struck will suffer tremendous damage, and the wielder can call upon the Ashen Flames if they are an adherent to it's ways and power. <br>
<br>
"Sacred Flame" gains "Holy" descriptor if desired, and adherent units can do holy damage in place of mundane.<br>
<br>
The demons were dealt with!!!<br>
<br>
<b>____________________________________________</b><br>
<br>
Miracles of light and dissolution thus performed, It was time to turn attention to the Scorpions... but they were nowhere to be found. Local goblins and their foolishness had chased them into the chasm... so that is where the Venture had to descend to find any. Using nature magic they presented as not threat nor Prey... and at the bottom of the Chasm they found a Titanic Scorpion of Gigantic size and ancient in lifespan... Guarding a store of eggs and a hoard of treasure, The Scorpion blinked it's eyes and clacked it's claws -- the nature magic making it possible to commune with the great being...<br>
<br>
DECISION POINT:<br>
A) Lure away a Regiment of the Largest Scorpions with peaceful obsequiousness and escape this lair immediately!<br>
B) Challenge the "Mother of Stingers" for control of her brood and treasure! (scene?)</div>

The Medicinal task force did a spectacular job of taking samples of the plants and leaving them in potentially better shape than when they found them. The group gained <b>4 units of Medicinal Plant Cuttings </b>-- these could be sold at port for variable price, or a unit could be converted into plants at another site. Much balms and ointment was made on the spot, which over time would be used up soothing the ailments of the Venture...  but in addition to this <b>2 units of Medicine </b>were made for trade/use on board the Caridad.<br>

 Telren's Liturgists had deep and valuable insights into the Vaal Observatory through consult through their various specialties -- Telren Lumyar's agents Tyarra and Durlan and Father Damien became well acquainted though their astral link -- and it was discovered that many of the "Treasures" the Caridad had simply taken for decorative vessels or finery were actually replacement parts for many pieces of mechanisms completely absent or weathered away by the ravages of time. Father Damian Allowed Telren and his experts to guide him in restoring the observatory to some semblance of functioning but it required they return many things they had taken as loot and salvage back to the mechanisms. <b>(-2 wealth)</b><br>
<br>
The Observatory could now be much more effectively used for scouting territory in the archipelago. (full 360 degree scouting) as well as a console that was mistaken for a feeding tray and ceremonial bowl set was restored to functioning. Not obvious on first glance, <b>AZLANTI SCRIPT </b>was hidden in the grooves of various pieces that interacted with Vaal Cyphers. When complete, there were four buttons that still worked on the console, seemingly remotely tethered to mechanical functions on the island of smuggler's shiv!<br>
The language of the azlant was strange, (so words with no real equivalent with be ensconced in *'s to denote linguistic best fits...<br>
<br>
these buttons were: (Relating to the Island of Smuggler's Shiv)<br>
<br>
A) *SPECIMEN* CONTAINMENT -- "OFF"<br>
B) WEATHER *REPULSION* SYSTEM "ON"<br>
C) RAIN OF BLOOD "OFF/*NOT IN SERVICE*"<br>
D) INNER BAY DRAINAGE ACCESS "OFF"<br>
E) SEISMIC *INSURANCE* "ON"<br>
<br>
Switching a function does not take an action but they are perhaps best left alone until understood.<br>
<br>
Espionage was used effectively to hide the presence of Father Damien, his crew, and guests.<br>

<br>
1) All forces support Jarl Einar in the battle to come<br>
<br>
2) Stormlords create blizzard in the swamps to compromise/harm Aymarans. <br>
<br>
Pat Forces: 41x freemen (41pts) 15x seawolves (15pts) 5x fellers (15pts) 2x thanes (10pts) 7x housecarls (49pts) 6x ritter-knights (60pts) 1x stormlord (10pts) 3x skald-kappi (15pts) 1x leadfang (8pts) 5x berserkers (35pts) 21x jestir (42pts) 1x Einar Jarl (free) 1x Dwarven "crag hedrox" longship cat bound as a familiar (free) -- CANNON SUPPORT.<br>
<br>
1) Bylgja (a stormlord) storm genasi creates fleeing Aymaran croclet illusions after a keg of gunpowder primed to explode is rolled inside of the entrance of the largest barrow in an attempt to unleash the wrath of the unseen automatons upon their village in the swamp by leading the machines straight to them. She teleports back to board the camouflaged <i>Hringhorni</i> as it makes ready to row along the coast to the southwestern swamp, shrouding the ship in mist once more and providing enhanced senses for a vanguard of 21 Jestir, 3 Skald-kappi, and Jarl Einar (and his cat familiar Jörmungandr) to set ashore, the force eliminating sentries and disabling traps in the longship's path, and infiltrating the village to perform sabotage and cause last minute infighting between the matured croclets and the Aymaran adults while their attention is ideally on the lured terrors of the hills. When idle onboard the ship Jarl Einar carves frost runes into the weapons and missiles of the crew for the upcoming battle.<br>
<br>
2) Thane Katla, Thane Yngvar (mounted behind Sir Hjalti), 41 Freemen, 15 Seawolves, 5 Beinagrind-fellers, 7 Housecarls, 6 Ritter-knights (among them Sir Hjalti), 5 Berserkers (mounted behind the knights), 1 Leadfang (Sigbjorn) follow the shore party in the longship. When detected, the knights lead the charge while the ship opens fire. The rest of the martial forces get ashore when they can.<br>
<br>
______________________________________________<br>
<br>
"Trap!" The young Aymaran "Inglor" was trying to teach his fellow Aymarans in the swamp village what Northlanders were all about. He made several crude drawings -- a Berserker eating "TRAP!", A group of Freemen going to the bathroom together (?) "TRAP!" A Skald with it's hand out in peace "TRAP!" -- a peaceful northman village minding it's own business: "TRAP! TRAP! TRAP!" The only thing that was not marked as a trap was northmen charging. This was a fight, and fights should be dealt with. But TRAPS... A cunning Aymaran does not blunder into a trap. At least when it can remember not to. Inglor had been peeping about traps for two days now, and some of the Aymarans were starting to get it. "TRAP?" was still the most frequently asked question, but Inglor believed most Aymarans would eventually grasp the concept. <br>
<br>
So the Aymarans did nothing when the Mechanical Grievers were released with illusions designed to lure them into battle with the constructs. Even though the agents of the ruse were croclets, Real aymarans knew that running out to rescue your young, or let them lead you to your village was Dumb. Some of them even went as far as to think it was a...<br>
<br>
"TRAP!" Barked a few Aymarans. <br>
<br>
"TRAP?" Croaked several others in questioning... <br>
<br>
"TRAP! TRAP!" Quickly spread in reply. <br>
<br>
The Aymaran Shaman identified the illusions and dispelled them before they came close to the swamp. This left the grievers wandering without targets not far from their barrows, which lead them to attacking the ruins instead (the nearest new buildings being that of the Northmen) and while no northmen were home to be slaughtered by the constructs, (they were too busy springing their trap, you see) The longhouse bridge was promptly cut into inch-long pieces and dumped in the river, along with all the Venture(s) supplies that were not packed aboard the ships, and a good share of their food. Short story, anything too heavy or not useful in the current project of fighting the Aymarans was left ill-guarded and the Greivers destroyed it. Then, not seeing any Northmen, Aymarans, or illusions to chase -- they returned to their barrow and sealed themselves inside. <br>
<br>
A bit of time passed and the Northlanders sought to spring their ambush on the Aymarans... but there were no sentries to waylay, and no outer security to fool. They were all in the village learning about potential traps or staying at home so they didn't blunder into one. This enabled the Unified Northmen to penetrate to the very borders of the Aymaran Village unopposed, cannons trained from their ship on larger buildings and groups of Crocodillic Hulks.<br>
<br>
Finally, The cabal of stormlords unleashed a Terrible Blizzard on the Collected Assembly of the Aymarans. Young Aymarans died instantly and in droves, while the oldest were almost hopelessly slowed, their metabolisms ravaged by the cold putting them almost fully into Torpor. Shortly after that, the stormlords unleathed sheet after sheet of lightning on the village, starting fires and burning Aymarans to crisps.<br>
<br>
The Aymarans didn't move -- they knew this was a trap. And they weren't falling into it.<br>
<br>
A full 2/3rds of the Aymarans were dead or incapacitated before the whole northmen force charged... and this the Aymarans knew was a good sign, because  it was an invitation to fight, and not, as they had been instructed, a Trap. The Giant Croc men, many warmed by fires burning unchecked amid the blizzard, picked up burning trees as weapons and sources of warmth and counter-attacked...<br>
<br>
An Average adult aymaran is 8 to 13 feet tall, and functionally a whole military unit of whoopass all alone. While significantly fewer in number, an excited and numerous counter charge of Aymarans closing with non-elite Northmen infantry was a disaster for the Jarl's forces. <br>
<br>
The Freemen were annihilated instantly. Most of them kicked apart or sent flying into the ocean like softballs at the ends of burning trees...<br>
<br>
Jestir, Fellers, and Seawolves were swallowed whole or shook until they made cracking noises and stowed in bags for later eating.<br>
<br>
The Berserks HEWD into their massive enemies, and Aymarans began to pile up around them as the Fearless warriors screamed for the dead to get back up -- but even they eventually, before long really, succumbed to the fog of war and slaughter. <br>
<br>
Each Thane and Housecarl fought his best, but fell under the weight of the Mindless suicidal throng of aymarans... more than anticipated, but not too much to kill, The northmen sought to prove...<br>
<br>
The Leadfangs lead by example, and died by example too... Each one worthy of song, in fact each glorious fighter worthy of the Skald's poetry, If the Skalds had not been eaten.<br>
<br>
By the time the fighting stopped, not a single Aymaran stood -- the stinking carrion burning and freezing in turn by the ravages of stormlord magic.<br>
<br>
Of the Northmen's forces, Only Einar Jarl, The Ritter-Knights and The Stormlords were untouched... the former winning in every challenge except to find a glorious death beside his men... Sure there were bruises or mild wounds to the exhausted knights -- although the stormlords seemed practically unscathed... <br>
<br>
...Victory was won, but at a cost too high to be considered a Victory at all. <b>Hronn Fiskanda </b>was found dead cutting his way out of the Aymaran Chieftain , and signs pointed to him having killed the Aymaran Shaman as well. Stranded in this strange land, Einar and his six nights joined forces with the 10 stormlords -- and awaited Einar's decision to disband the venture, or loot this Aymaran Village and use whatever proceeds to fund hiring more crew to carry on the venture...<br>

<br>
Somewhere beyond the fire and snow only a single pair of reptile eyes observed the holocaust before them... It was <b>Inglor</b> -- and his beady eyes watched everything the Northmen did -- He perfectly imitated the somatic components of their storm magic... he memorized their words and their fighting styles. Never was there an Aymaran so intelligent, It's mind awoken by a short and cruel education by the Northmen. Inglor fled into the deepest darkest corner of the island and growled to himself that he would grow huge and fat, and learn the ways of magic and the axe... And then he would go on a Voyage of his own... To the lands of the Northmen...<br>

<b>(Spinoff RP Idea: "VENGEANCE OF INGLOR" will not likely happen.)</b></div>

<br>
Brekhil Lohairho Was obviously a single insland at one time -- massive bubbling trenches now filled the channels between the shards of this once integrated Isle. <br>
<br>
Julian's ship approached the island cluster and set a sail directly for the central tower... but where the charts had previously advertised several peripheral (and whole) structures it seems a lot has changed... Most of the structures were ruined, with the exception of the tower itself and a filthy crumbling elven town on the northmost isle, a bevy of different flags and standards raised above almost every neighborhood or even individual structures in certain areas where one could guess supposed borders existed. This town would have to be investigated further -- but it seemed various gangs and factions of elves competed for territory, or at least felt it important to advertise specific ownership of every parcel of territory. <br>
<br>
Jungles and ruins dotted the other islands... and in the night, orange and yellow and red eyes spied Julian's Venture ship and seemed to follow along the coast... mobs of Ratmen that seemed to have taken over the east, west, and south island.<br>
<br>
Of more interest was the massive fields of black corn that grew on the western islands, As Julian was always on the lookout for crops and food -- and his patron would soon be requesting a delivery...<br>
<br>
Upon reaching the central tower -- A dark elven voice that was clearly an astral recording grand-eloquently conveyed a long list of threats, tortures, and promised punishments for trespassing in the Tower...<br>
<br>
"Ash Terhid!" Many of Julian's Crew cried out -- Supposing (correctly) that this was the password that would grant them access to the tower...<br>
<br>
The tower merely bellowed in Dark Elven "Welcome to the tower of Roc-huul Shurudah" -- Julian didn't know the translation of this phrase -- it might simply be a name, but Julian doubted it. No sooner had the password been stated when a group of anchors spooling out from inside the tower entangled Julian's ship and pulled it inside -- The tower's gates crashing shut into utter darkness.<br>
<br>
Inside the bottom of the tower was a spectacular shipwright, dry dock, and loading and storage dock... A grand black-metal staircase wound the interior of the tower, obscuring many levels of other structures and facilities. It seemed the residents were caught a bit off-guard as the base level of the tower was a complete ghost-town... but 50 shining-lacquered armored dark elves were rushing down the stairs to meet the interloping vessel. Their leader flew on a shadowsteed, and met Julians (Very much trapped in the chains now) vessel -- at the docks of the storage area. <br>
<br>
"Quenin Sala?! Artrecht Klah!" The Dark Elven General spat/sang the words of his people. "What are you here for? And how have you come!?"<br>
<br>
The rest of the dark elves assembled behind him, wielding strange crossbows with springs and wheels protruding at odd angles pulled taught with tension-filled wires...<br>

	</div></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445268" style="display: none;"><span class="bbcode-justify">In the lavish castle of the Fair Isles, Prince Airdan was born as the youngest child and only son to the King and Queen. With dark hair, golden eyes, olive skin, Airdan was considered perfect in their eyes. The Prince even possessed strong, magical abilities at a young age. He was just a couple of years old when his mother went to fetch him from his cradle and the infant Prince had covered his royal cot with luscious vines and flowers in his sleep. The entire kingdom celebrated his birth. His servants doted on him to no end. They brought him new toys if his others were broken. They fetched him the freshest fruits on command. They even tended to the scrapes on his knees if he tripped on his own shoe laces. The King and Queen even displayed their stronger affections and favoritism.<br>
<br>
But Prince Airdan’s parents also display their strict expectations. Prince Airdan was to be nothing short of perfect to the public eye. They dictated how he would be dressed, groomed, how he would eat, what he would eat, when he could eat, when he could play, who he could play with, and so on. He is the polite and charming diplomat as his people would expect him to be. He can be light on his feet in a flowing waltz or steady in a sword fight. Receiving any ounce of praise from his parents means the world to him. But Prince Airdan’s spoiled life created a new sense of jealousy for his older sister, Princess Eldrina. Prince Airdan also feels a shallow jealousy for his older sister, who seems to live a much more liberal life. Despite this, he longs for his sister’s approval, and when he has the opportunity, for her company as well. But Eldrina is often more distant with him.<br>
<br>
Arranged marriage is just another part of Prince Airdan’s expected responsibilities and the kingdom is preparing for a wedding that will maintain the peace treaty between the humans and the elves (since the other option is war). The King has arranged for his magical ship, <i>The Enchantress</i> to be armed with weapons, supplies, and elves for the prince’s journey to the opposing nation. Meeting his fiancée is the first step.</span><br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445269" style="display: none;"><span class="bbcode-justify"><b>Akluitok of the Clavenshire Pack-Ice (1 point) --</b> Indigenous peoples of Princess Cordelia's settled homeland, The "Aklu" are an ancient culture with Animistic traditions, and share close culture bonds with Sea Lions and Orca Whales. Expert fishermen and sailors, they are nonetheless somewhat out of place in the tropical archipelagos so far from home. That said they are happy and dedicated people, and their faith can, with enough voices, bring their aforementioned Totem animals to aid them.<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left: 20px"><b>Mildly Relentless –</b> This allows the unit during single combat or in battle to declare ONE ROUND as a relentless attack. This attack costs double fatigue but is rolled as 3d6 (regardless of dice required) and translated into place of any requested roll.​</div><br>
 <b>The Springborn (2 points) –</b> young elves just learning their first martial skills and arts, their low cost belies their expert archery, though they are only decent in melee, preferring to fall back or flee rather than die on the field. "Elven blood is too expensive to trade for anything less" is a popular springborn saying. Cautious. Double-firing.<br>
<br>
<b>The Summerborn (5 points) –</b> adult elves who are elite warriors and archers, as well as every five Summerborn form a "Frond" that practices a certain Art, Trade or specialty. They are GREAT at motivating lesser troops. Light-Heavy Armor (made of vines and wood), Chain Reaction (missiles can hit 1d4 targets), Disciplined. Although willing to die for the cause, their losses are mourned by all elves.<br>
(losses may effect morale)<br>
<br>
<b>The Autumnborn (8 points) –</b> Putting down their weapons to lead with oratory, performance and intellect, the Autumnborn Lay down their arms to masters arts and trades. Each One is granted two expertise/specialties, determined at purchase. All are consummate diplomats and arcanists (losses WILL effect morale) -- (pick one sphere at 4, or two spheres at 3 -- 2 specialties) -- "Noncombatant" descriptor. Leader/expert unit.<br>
<br>
<b>The Winterborn (10 points) –</b> Having mastered their arts and the ways of fighting, strategy, and the sword, each winterborn is a hero in their own right. With centuries of practice, everything they do is masterful and of preternatural grace. They have one chosen specialty each (a "mastery") and two spheres at 4 -- though ALL winterborn use the same magic in the venture. (pick 2 spheres at 4 -- 1 mastery) "Tireless", "Point-blank shot", "Withering Fire", "Tandem fighting" descriptors. The loss of a winterborn is a true loss to all elvenkind, and their lives should be risked sparingly or not at all. If they must die, it must be worth it, and even then there may be a reckoning.</span></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445270" style="display: none;"><b>The Enchantress</b> <br>

<br>
The Show Goes on, and on and on and on!<br>
<br>
The Circus seemed to graft itself onto the island like some strange symbiote, drawing the blood of citizens and travellers alike through it's chaotic twists and turns, mazes and blind alleys, all designed to do two things -- to amaze, and separate coin from one as subtly and completely as possible. A flag of peace and amnesty was flown high from the Whirl-o-Wheel, Both inviting all who could see it' splendor and threatening grave deprisals for anyone who came to disrupt the peace. Two other Ventures were nearby, Most particularly entertained were the elves of Prince Airdan -- who's expectations were low for the entertainments of "Mayflies" -- what elves called the not so long-lived humans when there were none to hear them -- It was not the highest art, but it was wild and free and full of it's own mysterious expression. The winterborn scoffed at the "Bread and Juggling" but in truth a good time was had by all. Altogether, Two local ventures Patronized the Show, The whole of the Village of the Hlaloc, and an unexpected arrival by a Ruanese Trade ship and the Pirate vessel that was chasing it that agreed to make truce for the duration of the stay on the island.<br>
<br>
<br>
Altogether, the Circus earned <b>4 wealth from ventures and nearby Sailors, (</b>Other players do not pay with wealth, instead it is considered bilked-out of the crews own purses.) The Hlaloc did not use wealth, but Barters a choice from the chieftain of the village:<br>
1) <b>4 units of darkwood</b> -- this wood burns very smoky, is capable of holding enchantments, and is of high quality for making finished goods and repairs.<br>
2) <b>6 units of sugar -- </b>due to a recent incursion of crab-monsters burning the woods down and it's subsequent rebirth through nature magic -- this sugar was of high quality and of great volume.<br>
3) <b>5 units of Goods and Gifts </b>-- while not exactly as valuable as wealth in most ports, these commodities had a tendency to make folk happy (something for everyone) ... it was just a question of whether you could turn the right gift into a valuable opportunity.<br>
<br>
<br>
The safe bet was the wealth, as it made both the crew of the circus, and the show itself, happy. But the decision was ultimately up to Terren Laevon...<br>
<br>
<br>
____________________________<br>
Then there was the business of capturing a "God-Snake" that had recently fled the disruption of it's habitat... The carnies walked in a broad line, checking every trace of animal and zero-ing in on the animal, under the ceaseless gaze of the outrageous hats, and the muscle of a couple of bouncers.<br>
The hunt continued with high morale and excitement, until one too many Carnies realized they were looking over their shoulders and one too many of the Hats felt the hairs raise at the backs of their neck...<br>
They were not looking for the serpent anymore, it was the serpent that was looking for them...<br>
Decision Point:<br>
A) Abandon the Hunt!<br>
B) ENCOUNTER (Scene)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Free Action: Attach Ancient Golden Mermaid Prow to the hull of the Venture ship. Venture ship gains (2 rerolls) in naval encounters (Forced on enemies or used for own actions) from a great blessing of fortune that falls over the The Circus Vessel!</div>

<br>
1)-Hone in on Nature magic as to increase skill and use with it (2 Shamanwings (one a normal shamanwing and the other is Princess Despduis) go to the Druids for training)<br>
<br>
2)-Scout out north island ‘the Glow’ by flying over there with a scouting force (70 Drones, 2 Directors, 24 Pincers, 4 Court Guards, 2 Shamanwings)<br>
<br>
___________________________<br>
The Dryad Druids were happy they had demonstrated their worth of peace, and protection within the realm of the Beevarians. They continued to share their secrets -- teaching the spells of : Growth, Diminutization, Lesser Regeneration, Poisonblood, and Camouflage. They were especially happy to have an audience with Princess Despduis, surely such an audience meant that the Beevarians would not annihilate them and instead respect them as worthy subjects in their lands...<br>
<br>
___________________________<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, at "The GLOW" the Beevarians make interesting but horrifying discoveries. The sky over the crater flashed with skyward rays of green light and the ground dissipated a crawling green fog. It was in the Crater they found the Lillies and Daisies the size of Great Oaks... Flower-cups flooded with sickly green but nonetheless sweet Nectar... The Task force landed in the Crater of the glow and saw that it was filled with hundreds of different strains of mutated bees. Some minuscule and pathetic, some quite large and formidable. Warped and Perverted hives lay everywhere the size of coins to the size of gargantuan worms. These were the lands of the "MisBEEgotten" -- and seemingly the origin of the Beevarian Race -- the colorings were too similar -- the instinctive reactions to the fragrances of the glow echoed in their genetic memories. They were the Smartest if not the strongest mutations to come out of the... Comet Strike... That destroyed their early and tiny civilization and gave them the gift of size and sentience. <br>
<br>
Choices needed to be Made: TWO DECISION POINTS:<br>
1) fight the MisBEEgotten (large battle) or Avoid the MisBEEgotten (slight losses, but conflict avoided for now)<br>
2) The "Comet" in the center of the glow-crater crackled with black lightning, green light, and eldritch power -- Steal the starstone? or leave it be(e)?<br>
 OR<br>
3) Flight high over the Glow and explore the lush and gorgeous jungle beyond the crater<br>
(all Drones will get radiation sickness, but new area will be expored/exploited)</div>

Action 1: the copperback and its crew dispatch move to gray maidens, only the legionaries along with meltbor are allowed to exit the vessel due to discipline they exhibit.<br>
<br>
action 2: the sea Treader‘s and the younger‘s search the shallows around “forge hold“ (crab home) while teaching them patients in finding valuable things.<br>
<br>
 <br>
___________________________________<br>
Action 1: the copperback and its crew dispatch move to gray maidens, only the legionaries along with meltbor are allowed to exit the vessel due to discipline they exhibit.<br>
The Copperback Vessel slid unassumingly into the port of grey maidens, half submerged, fully alien, the cocoon-shaped vessel looked like a capsized craft that slowed and stopped right where it should. From the sides four anchors slid through slats in the chitin-styled plating of the craft, mooring and balancing it all at once.<br>
<br>
A crowd of Nervous ports-guard assembled into two regiments as the front of the vessel popped open like a turtle's jaw and disgorged a cargo of crab legionaries and Meltbor, Master of the Legion.<br>
<br>
The warm and squishy ones were obviously equipped for violence. Their countenance did not betrayed they were not prepared for it, however. Humans were everywhere on the surface. The crab-folk speculated the world was rife with them, ridden, infested. But what they could not speculate was how -- How could a race so weak not be swept aside? At least knife ears had magical powers, and an imperial long-view given to venerable age. At least the Beard-feet had strong armor and weapons, like the Legion caste. But humans? Meltbor resolved they were like Krill -- all these people were simply too numerous to kill or eat them all...<br>
"Iron."<br>
<br>
"We trade sun-metals for iron" Meltbor clacked disturbingly.<br>
<br>
The swashbuckling defenders relaxed... This was apparently not an invasion. Meltbor attempted a parody of a smile, which was more terrifying than comforting, but the captain of the guard smiled back.<br>
<br>
Meltbor gave his orders to the "Front" who commanded the younger legionaires:<br>
"There is trash all around this community of rock and sticks -- I see metal discarded. Take it all." (Young Iron Shells <b>acquire 2 iron in debris on the beaches</b>)<br>
"There is 'market' here -- where want is traded for want. Take all their iron, but be frugal in trade." <b>(Legionaries BUY 8 units of iron for 2 wealth)</b><br>
<br>
<br>
action 2: the sea Treader‘s and the younger‘s search the shallows around “forge hold“ (crab home) while teaching them patience in finding valuable things.<br>
<br>
Patience. Thoroughness. systemic searches. Scouting. Reward.<br>
the Sea Treaders taught the young crab-folk how to properly and comprehensively search for valuables. By the time they were done with their search there was no stone unturned around "Forge Hold" -- And paydirt was uncovered in the form of a lava tube!<br>
<br>
The Treaders and their followers pulled out great clumps of melted copper -- <b>4 units of copper in all. </b><br>
In addition to the wealth of copper that was found in the tube, <b>1 unit of diamonds </b>was extracted in the deepest part they could reach, any deeper and the crab folk would boil in their own shells...<br>
But this was not the only finery in the tube to be extracted:<br>
<br>
Flashing keystone -- <b>(2 units) Flashing "Keystone" is added to the foundation of constructions and conveys unpredictable but magical properties to the structure.</b><br>
The glittering smagar <b>(3 units) Semi-precious stone with great flexibility, may have creative applications. Lenses made of this substance provide nightvision.</b><br>
Scintillant Axminium <b>(2 units) A liquid metal that when added to an alloy makes for sharper edges.</b><br>
<br>
Completing their business, the Iron-Shells reunited at the Forge Hold with all their spoils...</div>

<br>
1. Directed by Ostag Sydr, Cult in the Grey Maidens will construct a housing complex, to provide a place for the faithful to live. 2 wealth is spent on the construction.<br>
2. Tyarra Spelt and Durlan Miamoir help Damian and his lepers with using the Vaal observatory using astral magic.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
First the The drunks and pirates came to challenge the cult at grey maidens... not "cottoning to newcomers acting like they owned the place" -- but the chorus set them straight, where the rugged and the violent were cast into the street, the ignorant were merely welcomed inside and the host of the cult brought them into the fold.<br>
"here we intend to build a house -- a house for all the chorus and they that rise above. It can be your home too, rather than a tavern, if you will but listen to our song."<br>
<br>
Some guards came from the more established side of town -- paid by their leaders to make trouble both lawful and non. The Lawless again were greeted by the chorus, and cast into the road for their brazen ways, and the outsiders could not be punished for defending what was theirs. Those that had come more out of curiosity or an intent to intimidate found no purchase that was not fitting to the cult. Some guards stayed behind to "keep away other riffraff" and those more faithful to their paymasters simply swaggared before the construction site before them and went home. The Cult had come to Grey Maidens, and if the Twin powers willed it, they would stay...<br>
<br>
Between the three delapidated properties the cult already possessed, they bought a great deal of building materials and stripped away most of the uninviting and languishing architechture on their land. A great house of Red and white rose up almost overnight, with <b>2 wealth spent </b>on it's construction by both the cult and many an eager hand to either help or profit from the construction. It was a temple, a feast hall, and a three story housing complex that loomed over the shanties and older manorhouses of the neighborhood, that slumped under their own weight.<br>
<br>
Many builders hired remained to become Chorus -- the <b>Chorus grew by another 30 -- </b>which disconcerted the powers that were...<br>
<br>
The Cult was visited by three personages, each with an inquiry as to what the cult's purpose and goals in the maidens was -- and they would each need to be dealt with in turn...<br>
<br>
<br>
ENCOUNTERS!<br>
A) Breyheo Stoltinhen -- The right hand of Commodore Kaufman of the "rich" side of town... This champion said he intended to buy the cult complex so that the cult could leave "with a tidy profit" -- this was a veiled threat to leave or fact ritual combat, the other alternative. Would the cult pick a representative to Humble Breyheo in combat, or would they come up with some other solution?<br>
B) The Feathered Hag -- One of the high witches of the grey maidens, they were curious but threatening in their approach to the cult. "This is the land of OUR faith, Richen-Bacher" (meaning Back-Rider) -- "You will explain how there is room for the old ways in your plans, or there will be a battle of magics on this isle, and our arcane has dealt with the divine before."<br>
C) Lastly, "Camus of the Loneclaw Band" -- a giant werewolf, visited the Cult of Sol and Nyx... a mighty lycanthrope from the enchanted forest inland. "Your red faith darkens even the forests at the foot of the mountains, believers -- and I am here to demand tribute and promises from your people that the Lycans have naught to worry about with your machinations. Or I shall face your 'Chorus' and we shall do the dance of Claws...<br>
<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, at the Vaal Observatory many discoveries were being made. Some suggested the Vaal civilization did not die out at all, but instead chose "To hide in plain sight" -- whatever that meant. The cult got <b>A map of smugglers Shiv</b> from using the observatory, which would likely become valuable if they decided at some point to approach that island... and also noticed in the middle archipelago there were three mesas that were identical, the Vaal referred to as "The Triplet sisters" -- odd. The time invested game the cult the knowledge of <b>Lenses of the Vaal -- 1 unit. </b>which they could sell/trade at a high price, or with great difficulty and resources attempt to reproduce. Vaal lenses would help navigate danger at sea as well as allow more comprehensive scouting...<br>
<br>
However, all was not good news... Despite all precautions taken, the Cult was showing signs of initial exposure to the leprosy of the followrs of Father Damien.<br>
<br>
Decision Point:<br>
A) pay <b>1 wealth </b>in alms to <a href="/members/twist.39617/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="39617" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId70">

 the lepers order for the litanies of protection and rites necessary to protect them...<br>
B) Depart from the afflicted while there was still time!</div>

<b>Action 1:</b> Akluitok Sailors x 20 Springborn x 10, and Summerborn x 1 go hunting for Bad Serpent Laos.<br>
<b>Action 2:</b> Prince Airdan and his remaining crew hunt for pirates in the Sea of Strife. <br>
<b>Crew Conditions:</b>Spirited Morale.<br>
<br>
Prince Airdan's forces had already done so much to undo the damage the Crab-folk had wrought on the forest of thruneswatch, but they could tell it was not the stame... bevies of saplings could hardly replace the old growth and sacred trees that were so quickly turned to charcoal. It was sensed, nay it was known that the great snake Loas of the wood were displaced and disrupted by the ecological disaster, even one so hastily remedied... at the ruins of a sacred grove of ancient golden trees they found a great Serpent Loa, A Wadjet -- strange -- as these holy serpents were seldom if ever seen outside of the desert kingdoms, Aymara being the closest this Loa could have come from, and even that was quite far away... The serpent was huge (10 point unit) that slowly collected and coiled around the fallen goldenwoods, mourning for the loss of it's home... An astral crown pulsed over it's head showing it's minor divinity, and it turned to face Airdan's task force.<br>
<br>
"Can't you see I am in mourning for my brothers the trees? What business have you, if it is a fight, I will make quick work of ye."<br>
<br>
Prince Airdan himself, sailing late at night with the rest of his crew, found a pirate Brig trolling the waters for easy prey, of which Prince Airdan and his forces most certainly were NOT. Astral probing revealed this was the ship of "Powell 'No-Tongue' Rave" -- called "The fearful grail of Storm" <br>
<br>
Decision Point:<br>
A) Airdan can stealthfully board and strike viciously before the enemy can notice, but they must seize the upper hand quickly, for they are outnumbered.<br>
B) Announce Elven presence and parley with the pirates!</div>

(Orders not specific) <br>
<br>
-- Lady Victoria Varna had come to the islands of Ys with perhaps more sophisticated machinations planned, but the people here were too covetous and easily manipulating with their bigotries against each other it was almost like they were flirting with her. <br>
<br>
The beaches were lovely, covered in mundane pleasures and lavish afterdusk promises... and dawnlight contracts. Her Infernal company had not truly taken free and sown evil and chaos for so long, Lady Victoria wondered if their loyalties might wilt around the edges if they were...<br>
<br>
...denied their enjoyments.<br>
<br>
It was true that the occupants of old Ys, with their high society and luxury cravings were easier to manipulate... but New Ys was filled with star-crossed lover that pined for each other, hidden ambitions and forbidden schemes as well...<br>
<br>
So they spared no-one... sowing maximum discord in the respective societies before brewing and letting loose a full scale war that was just BEGGING to be pressed between the peoples of new and old Ys. <br>
<br>
First they were at their own throats, then turned to their neighbors as scapegoats. Lady Varna stirred the pot until the atmosphere was sick and suspicious, when one had as much to fear of one's lust and mania driven comrades than the cruelties of the enemy...<br>
<br>
and when they were done -- oh, when both new and Old Ys burned bright on their respective shores -- Lady Victoria invited their former slaves, the shamblers, from beneath the waves to capitalize on the weakness and chaos overwhelming the peoples of Ys.<br>
<br>
There wasn't much profit in it... not in a conventional sense. But Devils enjoyed a variety of currencies.<br>
<br>
When the last of the chaos was finished, there was no Ys to speak of, only the vengeful reclamation of the shamblers. Who saw the devils for what they were.<br>
<br>
--which meant the devils saw them for what they were... no fun at all. <br>
<br>
Lady Victoria spun her parasol on a beach covered in bonfires heaped with corpses, enjoying the festive light under the stars before returning to her ship. She tucked an orb into her clutch, a milky ivory color from which you could hear the wailing of 200 souls fighting to get out, to escape the damnation spread forth for them like a banquet of decadent undoing. <b>Gain 2 units of "Souls" -- this commity does not have clear applications yet, but the more souls collected the better your endgame will likely be.</b><br>
<br>
Her closest subordinates tucked similar spheres into packs and pockets. It had been a good harvest. Ys of course, was no more. A humble but seasoned repast in one of simply a chain of orgies of deceit and destruction...<br>
<br>
<br>
(Updating map to Remove Ys, settlements now occupied by shamblers)<br>
<br>
<br>
NEW TURN IS OPEN!<br>

</div>Princess Yueliang stood at the bow of the Needle Ship as the Shenlong, Tian's ship appeared in sight. "Poor Tian'er, you were so close to the Throne but you just had to die in this... backwater place." <br>
<br>
Yueliang sighed before a magnificent aura erupted from her body, her eyes glowing white and her expression changed to that of anger. "By an undead child and an assassin... The former I could understand, but how dare they still play politics while Tian'er was carrying out a mission of the Emperor."<br>
<br>
"Your Highness, please calm yourself. We will avenge the late Crown Prince but our main objective here is to continue the venture." A scholar appeared behind the Princess. There was no magical power coming out of the scholar but it would be a mistake to underestimate him as he is one of the most esteemed scholars of the Empire. Scholar Tao Jiayi is a Draconic Scholar who serves directly under the Emperor. Along with his fellow scholars of the Draconic Archives, they advised the Emperor on matters pertaining to Dragons. He was specially sent to aid the venture with his expertise. <br>
<br>
"Uncle Jiayi, I let my emotions get the best of me. I apologize." The aura immediately disappeared and a smile appeared on the Princess' face. Scholar Tao Jiayi just nodded in response. The Elven-styled Needle Ship stopped anchored beside the Shenlong.<br>
<br>
Yueliang was immediately greeted by an organized line of crewmen who bowed as soon as she stepped foot on the ship.  "We welcome Princess Long Yueliang, Archon of the 3rd Seat of the Celestial Tower, and the Lady of Harmony."<br>
<br>
Xian Hu, as the highest-ranking individual, stepped forth and knelt before Yueliang. "Your Highness, Shenlong and everyone aboard the ship welcomes you. Command of the Expedition is also officially transferred to your Highness." <br>
<br>
Yueliang looked down at Xian Hu and maintained her silence. To the most, it would seem as if the Princess was just thinking. But to Xian Hu, her silence was louder than words. He know very well that the Princess was disappointed, if not furious, at him for failing at his duty of guarding Prince Tianlong. <br>
<br>
The Princess snorted and looked at the rest of the crew. "Very well. Although it is customary for the name of the ship to reflect its Imperial Commander but as a tribute to my late brother Tianlong, the ship will retain its name - Shenlong. Xian Hu, you will remain as the military commander." <br>
<br>
Xian Hu looked at the Princess before bowing his head again in thanks. He knows this is her giving him a chance for redemption. "As you wish, your Highness. We give you our utmost thanks."<br>
<br>
"Now, let's continue this venture. Bring us to Port Bax" </span><br>​</div><hr><div style="text-align: center"><br>

At the Princess' behest, the magicians of the celestial tower began setting up a formation to project a celestial map that will locate at least some, if not all the dragon scales in the archipelago. It is important to know where they should search instead of blindly exploring the islands of the archipelago which will take ages. <br>
<br>
A complex formation was laid out in the deck of the Shenlong. 10 Celestial Magicians were sitting in a lotus position, acting as the 10 support nodes and channeling their respective magical spheres to help power the formation. Scholar Dong Fan, Scholar Tao Jiayi, and Princess Yueliang were standing on the middle, acting as the core nodes of the formation. Scholar Dong Fan acted as the general controller of the formation with his Arcana and Formation specialty, Scholar Tao Jiayi with his Draconic Specialty was to direct the power of the formation for their specific objectives, while Princess Yueliang played the most vital role with her Celestial Dragon's blood, Astral 4, Harmony 2, the 2 recently obtained dragon artifacts as well as the Celestial Umbrella to create a resonance with the dragon scales scattered all over the archipelago. <br>
<br>
If an island(s) is/are discovered to hide a dragon scale, the venture will then attempt to obtain information about it. A budget of 1 wealth is allocated for this.</div>

The party was raging around the bonfire. All the goblins worked hard. So hard in fact that they wouldn’t be able to work for a while. So now it was time for them to be rewarded and what kind of leader would he be if he didn’t give them a little rest and relaxation for all that labor intensive job that they’ve done so far?<br>
<br>
Dagget Daggerson was nothing in not a fair and understanding Goblin Boss. Plus, he had just worked really hard as well. No one could doubt that he had not earned his keep, protecting what was his and all his underlings as well. From the dreaded Festrich. He looked at his trophy that would would eventually hang in the halls of a tavern, to add to its splendor and motioned to one of the goblins that was too drunk to lay down so he could stand on him.<br>
<br>
“Have I got a tale for all you fine fellows!” Daggerson called out, sloshing his own grog around as he spoke.<br>
<br>
“It all started with a couple of dingbats playing ding dong ditch with that maseulem, pissing around it. Who would have thought that Goblin urine was string enough to break a powerful holding spell? Am I right? Add that to the pile of things that us Goblins are great at doing over other races, breaking curses with our piss!” A handful of goblins laughed heartily at the all too real joke.<br>
<br>
Daggerson took another hearty swig of his tankard and continued. “So then that bloody Frestich, that Giant Troll Vampire, Tampire, Voll, whatever you lot want to call it, I don’t think anyone even made up their mind.”<br>
<br>
As if on cue, a few of them started arguing the terminology again. “It doesn’t matter. What does matter is that I hopped in the Tinker Tanker to take this giant beastie on. And some of you thought it was the absolute wrong thing to do. Some of you thought we should do something completely different, against my wishes.”<br>
<br>
Each time that he said the word some, he stomped his foot down hard, eliciting an ow from the goblin that he was standing on.<br>
<br>
“I’m the one with the crazy good ideas. Like standing up to some Giant Vampire that thinks it could kick us off of OUR island.” A large cheer erupted from the crowd as he continued.<br>
<br>
“Yeah. Its OUR island and I wasn’t gunna let this thing take it from us. So I hopped in the Tinker Tanker and swung the Wrecking ball at it. It grabbed the thing and started ripping it from its hinges, but I had overclocked the damn thing and swung it anyway, electrictuing the stupid vampire.”<br>
<br>
Dagget started imitating someone getting electrocuted, spilling some of his grog onto the goblin below. “It roared in defiance as its teeth were spinning wildly. It was time for some intense action. I moved the Tinker Tanker at full speed backwards, and spun it around in the air for maximum effect, flipping it over, but causing a large wave that hit the Festrich.”<br>
<br>
He laughed a deep belly laugh. “It was weak to water. This large powerful thing was weak to water. Which was everywhere. So we splashed it and splashed it hard. Then. It started eating itself. First its arms, then its legs and when it was nothing but a head, I used my axe to swing it far out into the ocean, where it melted and was sucked up by the fish!”<br>
<br>
A large cheer accompanied with hooting and hollering could be heard as his story came to its climax.<br>
<br>
Today, they rested and soon, they'd get some proper buildings up<br>

“This thing is completely Dreked up.” One of the Wrenchmaces turned to the other one as he scratched his head.<br>
<br>
“Yeah. The boss really did a number on it, didn’t he?” The other Wrenchmace chuckled as he leaned on his oversized Wrench.<br>
<br>
“Course, you should see the other guy?”<br>
<br>
“You mean that Festrich from the Captain’s story?”<br>
<br>
“Oh yeah. He crushed it. That thing would have killed us all. I still can’t believe that he managed to take on a beast like that.”<br>
<br>
The other guy chuckled and leaned in closely to whisper. “I heard the boss muttering to himself the other day after it happened. He couldn’t believe that he won either.”<br>
<br>
“Wow. I never knew the boss has doubts about anything. He always seems to confident.”<br>
<br>
“I guess that he gotta. He is the boss after all.”<br>
<br>
“Something to think about, I suppose.”<br>
<br>
Daggerson wandered onto the scene, chewing on a Toothpick. “Hey you lazybones. I want that Tinker Tanker up and running pronto. Y’know, just in case I need to take out any more monsters that were locked away by magical spells just cause no one else could kill them.”<br>
<br>
They both replied at the same time. “Yes sir”<br>
<br>
A lot to think about indeed.<br>
<br>
—------------------------<br>
<br>
“He wants us to what?” Pitney yelled with confusion as Ziggren tried on a fancy hat.<br>
<br>
“Daggerson wants us to try to figure out how to turn that…..” He motioned over to the Maseulum. “Into a Coliseum, complete with racetrack, Fighting Pit and the ability to perform Naval Combat.”<br>
<br>
“Is he out of his gord?” Pitney still exclaimed quite loudly.<br>
<br>
“Probably.” Lindel replied as he took a bite out of a large fruit.<br>
<br>
“Ugh. He expects us to do everything while he takes all the credit.” Pitney moaned.<br>
<br>
“Well, yeah. We are his Tinker Thinkers. We do all the Thinking and the Casting and he does all the…..” Ziggren followed up his words by motioning sword combat and making noises with his mouth as he moved.<br>
<br>
Piney placed both his hands over his eyes as Nibbor rushed in with a parchment and some doodles.<br>
<br>
“Guys, guys. I got some crazy ideas!”<br>

Damian smelt the smoke before he had seen it, his nostrils twitching as the acrid smell entered his nose, pulling him away from the telescope. Afraid he had damaged the device with his layman limbs, the clergyman Captain flicked his furrowed gaze all around him, catching sight of the smoke slowly seeping into the observatory through the open slit like a black blanket.<br>
<br>
With the fumes running along the lens like frightening fingers, Damian did his best to locate the source. Thankfully, his friends early aid now made such a feat smooth and seamless, and with the greatest of ease, the smokes blazing birthplace was made apparent on the other side of the island. As were the charred corpses and burning bodies that lay around it....<br>
<br>
"Sister Louise, may you man the observatory?" asked Damian as he slipped away from the controls "I fear our stay may be coming to an abrupt end"<br>
<br>
While he could see the momentary confusion on the Alabaster Maids face, she nevertheless performed the task, nodding consent as she realised his intent. With the Isle becoming engulfed in ember, a new port of call might be in order if things go awry.<br>
<br>
"Brothers and sisters I require your aid!" shouted Damian to all the afflicted present, the Gooey Ones and Accursed shambling after him as he hurried down the stairs.<br>
<br>
Putting his finger to his temple as he descended, the Astral abbot communicated with his Cult leading compatriot. "Apologies Madam Tyarra. This may be disconcerting..."<br>
<br>
With a thought, the Astral Link was severed. Hopefully the young lady would not hold this against him, his first observation through the restored telescope already done on her behalf and for her benefit.<br>
<br>
Taking through the open door, its intricate mechanism already pulling it into the wall as he neared it, Father Damian could already see the Sisters gathering the Maimed and the medicine's they had some diligently harvested, leading them from the encroaching smoke and red skies. Shouting over his shoulder, Damian addressed Telren.<br>
<br>
"Monsieur Telren! Perhaps you would like to enter the Tower or vacate to your ship?! A great pyre has taken to the island!"<br>
<br>
The soiled skipper did not wait for a reply or affirmation, as he quickly tried to formulate a strategy for the harrowing situation. "Sister Josephine! May you take the Maimed and cloister them within the Observatory." The former militant maid did not have to be told twice, commanding the throngs of tormented into the Tower.<br>
<br>
"To any of you that are willing, I beseech your help." Damian looked around at the gathered group "I aim to seek out and stop this blaze, tending to any injured along the way. This may be dangerous hence why I only take those willing. Seek shelter in the Tower or the Caridad if you are afraid, no one will judge you for it."<br>
<br>
Not a single person gathered moved. The portly priest heart was aglow with pride for his flock. "Well then, let us be off!"<br>
<br>
Taking off into the surrounding forest and towards the flames, Damien caught sight of the radiant armour of a Redeemer in the corner of his eye, feeling more secure in it's presence. However he could not shake the perturbed feeling that with the shining seraphim with him, perhaps this act of aid was doomed to failure.<br>
<br>
    Nearing the source of the acrid smoke, Damian kept his lantern close, shining it before him like a guiding light. "Allo! Allo! Is anyone out there!"<br>
<br>
<b>Orders:</b><br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"So let me get this straight." First Captain John du Doe heard in his head. "Sometimes it can be honorable to eat children? I should have become an Attolian Knight a long time ago then!" The First Captain replied "No no, eating children is categorically bad, BUT the reason for eating them can be more malicious than others. Eating children to end a brutal war is more honorable than eating children for fun." "My goodness, humans are confusing." "Indeed, their ideas of morality and ethics are often seemingly contradictory and steeped in various grey shades of context." "Life was easier in the dungeons when all we had to do was sit in the dark for months for our next meal to arrive. I was best friends with all the spiders in my chamber. They made sure all the bugs would get caught and not stick on me." "Indeed those were simpler times, but that simplicity is a luxury we can no longer afford ourselves. We can no longer be semi-sentient beasts hiding in the depths of dungeons just like how a pack of wolves can no longer roam their forest when the humans arrive to cut down all the trees."<br>
<br>
"Land Ho!" A cry called out in John's head. "We've arrived, gentlemen. Our plan is simple, go out again to restock our provisions, sell some of our goods, collect the bounty for the Murderous King, but most importantly... discreetly determine if there are other mimics hiding within the settlement such as that Hope Box that Lord Billy Bob tried to flirt with last time, and bring them aboard as new crew members. The trade and bounty provide a convenient reason and cover story to go across the port in search of these potential mimics. Afterwards, we speak with the Captain once more and then set sail to Ayan Bakur to help the locals there with their lobster problem. Now, prepare to land."<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
Orders:<br>
<br>
1. The mimics disembark the MayFlower to attempt to conduct diplomacy/trade within Port Bax and to gather the bounty for the sinking of the Murderous King, which is actually a front to discreetly try and determine if there are any mimics within the settlement such as the famous, beautiful Hope Chest and attempt to recruit them. This operation will be led by the Bookcase of Stealth, Espionage, Counter-intelligence with the Bookcase of Translator, Diplomacy, Castellan, Bookcase of Law, and the Bookcase of Commerce as advisors to help ensure that the mimics behave according to local customs, the law and conduct trade in proper fashion.<br>

2. A plan is assembled to deal with the Homarid problem. The plan consists of two prongs, the first led by Captain Mrs. Harrison includes a Kuo Toa unit to dive along the Northern Coastline to find the ocean entrance to the Diamond Mine then using their Water 3, freeze the submerged portion of the Diamond Mine and plug the ocean entrance. The other prong is to inform the locals that they've discovered a way to drive the the Homarids out of the mines and onto the surface and that any assistance especially in the form of spider silk and/or venom would be appreciated. Then they are to use the spider silk that they have and any other aid that the locals offer to set up a giant trap/net at the surface entrance to the diamond mine to make it easier to deal with the Homarids.<br>

Save the destructive seidr of the storm genasi that harmed as much as it helped, no man yet living slew more of the great Aymaran host than Ásmeginsson. The broken and maimed bodies of the northmen scattered around the swampland gave their lives here for their jarl's missteps, and leapt forth from the prow into battle gladly when they saw the measure of the titans that would deliver them into the arms of the valkyries. Sobering up from their bloodlust as they took in the devastation they wrought, he could only hope the young stormlords rallying to his side tempered their strength with newfound wisdom.<br>
<br>
"We return to our dream of MIKLAGARD in their stead. Let us rebuild and make of Oyster Isle, land our foes were content to prey upon in meaningless cycles, the home of a clan of warriors and craftsmen."<br>
<br>
Ogmund, Sigbjorn, Hrónn... He had lost too many here, the absence of the eleventh piece of shattered djinn he called kin weighing on his hugr most of all. All men must die, but a part of him wondered if he could have sacrificed his drengir on a grander altar than this island that they were dashed upon across Lastland seas of toil and strife.<br>
<br>

Nescient/Lost : (1 point) These are raw recruits with the most disrupted or distant spirits -- both sides must be honed to become something greater. (these crew cost 1 point but have potential, if serving well, to jump to a higher category)<br>
<br>
Tenderblade/Tethered : (2 points) These are tested and blooded warriors, and have either bonded with more stable spirits or have honed their relationship with them to aid them in their duties.<br>
<br>
Pathfinder/Soulshadow (6 each, Elites) These are elite warriors with years of training linked to powerful spirits that Fight alongside them, increasing their power and potential as a single entity. The soulshadow advises the Pathfinder, and grants help (and bonuses) to everything they do.<br>
<br>
Plowshares/Guides : 3 points -- these are not martial units, but support staff and skilled workers who use the guidance of the ancients to do the fastest and best quality labor possible. Worker unit, high quality.<br>

One sound filled the air of Oraska Village, the sound of a soccer ball deflating. Of course, invention hasn't cranked that out yet. Instead, a dark, light flame tickled the morning dew amongst the grasses, bouncing like cannonballs on jello. A rock collided, annihilating both. More began to rain as the clouds broke rank under the sun's endless tide... A boy, maybe ten, launched the rocks everywhere. The grass whooshed to the north as normalcy returned.<br>
<br>
Tanned skin, untouched by the heavens, one black and one white orb for each eye. Strands of hair flew down his face. A battleground fought from within, for a war not meant to be waged. The second sun slept at the tips; a heart of platinum and darkness bellowed at the skull. If one looked closely, a puff of black would enter the white orb. A gold slash would charge into the other. The war waged; the generals were chosen. Nothing seemed certain, other than the slipping of the darkness from the body to the shadow. Slowly, gently, as one might take a life. But, birthed power comes at a cost. Not chosen by choice, chosen by potential, he received and his other, true self paid for it. Cough, spit, vomit; incurable, unfinished sickness. Not a cleric, priest, a paladin could cure it. It reacts to the divine power and rejects it. The blight of Cherub Chevron, a disease that inflicts yet never kills.<br>
<br>
Many diviners have attempted to understand the relationship between Cherub and Zerah. Among the many mysteries, they did discover three facts:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whenever someone attempts to read Zerah's fortune, there is a high chance of failure (reading both Cherub's and Zerah's on success) and a chance for him to create an inferno. (Around himself)</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Whenever someone reads Cherub's fortune, you read both Zerah's and Cherub's without knowing which is which. And you read Cherub's fortune from Zerah if Zerah is willing and physically present.</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ul">Cherub cannot die, at least from conventional methods, it appears based on investigation magic that Cherub lives as long as Zerah does. But once Zerah dies, he dies. They share feelings of pain, etc, but they can be easily suppressed.</li>
</ul>Every glance at Cherub; every vomit, every cough that he feels until a pain builds and Zerah's hand clutches at his chest. Even after many, many years, it lingers. A pang of guilt, an original sin that seems unforgivable. A cure has to be found. Zerah swore he would find one. He searched the ruins of the north, the mysteries of forests, and anywhere else across the "eternal empire" that could have a clue. Nothing, nothing at all. With Zerah and his two brothers seemingly forever young, he buried his parents, his cousins, his friends, his original party.<br>
<br>
The guild is everything to him now, but the Muurdaan... made things difficult. Religious persecution, subjection to priests, etc.; while Zerah is human, he distances himself from the actions of the empire. Either through being more than he's worth or bigger fish to fry, Zerah and the Burning Heart Guild kept a shaky but peaceful relationship with the empire. But Zerah knew they would come for him eventually. They would come for Cherub to manipulate him to help them. While Cherub would be too sick to be remotely useful, Zerah hopes to find a place to stow him away. Keep him safe.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(147, 101, 184)"><span style="font-size: 22px">How to Hunt a Ghost (Or not)</span></span><br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/1653854316276-png.989075/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/926/926205-6bafd0ce853d9ae6855c9dafa199affa.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="1653854316276.png" title="1653854316276.png" width="179" height="100" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
Was it the crisp air? The sunrise? Hard to say. Whatever it was, today felt conflicted between calm and suspenseful. Maybe it was in their heads, maybe it wasn't. It had been some time since the sandy beaches of Ravnica's Sandbox had visitors. The same ones as were last time. Except things were to be hopefully different. New recruits were found, new items procured. And magic regained, a battle was ready to be waged, yet the guild was hoping to avoid it all together. With the sudden guests in the form of scorpions, everything was tight. As the soft thrash of sea waves brush against the Genie, the air felt clearer, but the suspense was there. Today was the day. Hunting a ghost was one of the more tedious and painstaking things an adventurer would do. But, it needs to be dealt with before other things befall. <br>
<br>
"Marge, I highly doubt that your squirell impression will calm Ravnica from her rabid behavior. We don't quite understand why she decided to do this, but we need to lay her to rest if she declines our offer. We simply cannot allow her to fall into some trap made by the Muurdaan, I refuse to have her have that fate. Its distinctly possible she has done terrible things. But, we shouldn't let her become a pawn for another. If she chooses our offer, it is her choice."<br>
<br>
"Oh come on, I'm sure it will work. It works on Sidd!"<br>
<br>
"Sidd's 16 Marge, and he's a goofy kid."<br>
<br>
On the bow of the ship, Marge and Zerah laid, looking out over the manor. The mist of the early morning dew covered most of the view. The swords, skulls, and other assortments felt as they were there for a threat, a promise of some sort. Regardless, there were metal and metal was always useful with the right skills. Which the guild had plenty to spare. Zerah scanned out the island before returning to Marge. <br>
<br>
"Alright, here's the plan. We need to secure the island before we head into the manor. Purification, collecting the weapons, and such. Ravnica will not be happy to see us, at least in the traditional sense of happy. I rather deal with just her and whatever is in that manor than being boxed in there. After we handle that, if we can, you and I will enter with some of our more exotic members."<br>
<br>
"Members that will be hard to posses?"<br>
<br>
"That's the idea. She'll probably want to try that at least once. She'll have to go for one of us which would be interesting considering..."<br>
<br>
Gojeckt sighed, "That you already are processed. You're assumption that fact will save you is quite large. I don't think it will."<br>
<br>
Zerah raked through his hair, "That's why Marge will have the scepter and I will go with flame ready. The others will keep any other elements busy as we deal with her."<br>
<br>
Sevastian materialized and nodded, "You and I, Gojekt, will need to summon our eagle eyes to scout out for anything important. Hopefully, we'll find what we'll need."<br>
<br>
Gojeckt moaned, "Fine, let's get this overwith."<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px">Orders:</span><br>

<li data-xf-list-type="ol"><span style="font-size: 15px">Free Move to Ravnica's Sandbox</span></li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol"><span style="font-size: 15px">Prevent the summoning of undead if any by water magic (purification), smashing of skulls, cleansing Fire, and the collection of the weapons and armor. If any other threats lurk, pacify them. If there are too many or too powerful, abort Order 3.  (Specialities: Monster Lore, Arcana, Geology)</span></li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol"><span style="font-size: 15px">Confront Ravnica to either purify her or exorcise her. If she could be purified, offer her redemption through helping the venture. Plenty of wards to be used and precautions made. Have Sevastian and Gocjekt feel out any important items needed for purification and any other threats inside. [Marge, Zerah, 26 Mephits, and 4 Vine Ogres will enter the Manor.]</span></li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol"><span style="font-size: 15px">If order 3 is aborted, have the mephits use their earth magic to shape battlements to take on any threats. If not needed, make smelters to smelt the equipment and Zerah will use fire magic to glass them. Smelt the mundane gear into molds (shaped and glassed) into armor designed for new Ashen Flame Elementals (Point Value: 7+ Preferred, Flying, Artillery Elementals).

<i>"Peggy, those mage fellas may be a bit odd, but they fixed of Ladybird right up, I tell you what. They covered her in this pretty wood they call 'Ironwood' and its some strong stuff, Tavarian strong. This is the prettiest the Ladybird has been since the first moment I laid eyes on her. The mages can't be all bad, they appreciated some good, smooth burning Tavarian Tobacco and sure dropped their 'illegal narcotics' to get on the right path. I tell you Peggy, I have never seen someone take to tobacco that fast. I was worried, coming to this place, so far away from the great nation of Tavara, but I think I'm starting to understand what Buck Strickland wanted, its not about the money, its about providing good, high quality tobacco and good service to our customers, wherever they may be. I hope someday to have the same foresight as that man. <br>
<br>
But we're going to need more tobacco, so I've given the go ahead to set up a new branch of theTavarian Greater Tobacco Company right here, on this island. Its no Tavara, but it'll do. <br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Captain Henry 'Hank' Williams,<br>
Captain of The Ladybird, seller of Tobacco and Tobacco Accessories</i><br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
Outside, on the beautiful paradise island, the men of the Tavarian Greater Tobacco Company worked and toiled under the tropical sun. The magic of nature was used to vitalize the land, to age and dry the timber of the land to be used for construction and aid in the regrowth of new trees because the last thing Hank wanted to do was disturb, or ruin, the natural beauty of this place, that just wouldn't be right. The plantation, if they could pull it off, would have multiple fields for growing not only tobacco, but some of the wild plants they discovered that could be domesticated and made into blends. Blends that would take Tavarian Tobacco to new heights, that would fill the Archipelago with that smooth, clean burning tobacco that it so desperately needed in these dark times. While Hank wanted nothing better then to be outside, in the sun, working in the dirt along with his men, and supervising them because lord knows if he wanted something done right, he had to do it himself, this time he was forced to trust his first mate Boom in the work.<br>
<br>
Hank had to do something only he could do. Create a hybrid plant that would be the first mass produced blend they created. He already had plans to create a pain reducing, sleep aid tobacco, but that would be a niche product, he needed something with good flavor and color to sell to everyone. His herbology station was packed full of new, budding plants, the tables were covered in diagrams and charts as he mapped the progress and development of each and every single offshoot he created. Creating a plant through breeding, normally, took a lot of time. Had to examine each and every offshoot, to check for defections, to breed over and over again until some started to show the results he wanted, and then breed those to try and enhance the aspects he desired, sometimes, finding entirely new ones in the process, but with the help of the Pacifist, the work was sped up considerable. Their magic could force the plants to grow at a rapid pace, exponentially cutting down the time it would normally take, letting him do in, potentially, a month what should take years or even a lifetime. Magic, while it may be a bunch of new age phooey, Hank couldn't deny it had its uses when it came to the most holy of all things, Tobacco.<br>
<br>
"Hank!" A shrill voice called as the door to his herbology station swung up with a <i>crash</i>.<br>
<br>
"Damnit Rusty, I'm busy," Hank sighed as he stopped in his process of writing down notes for the newest breed to take a draw on his pipe.<br>
<br>
"You'll be up to your elbows in business if you don't take action now," Rusty declared as he flipped up his glasses and produced from a pocket a rolled cigarette, "I was placing down some... deterrents from the local insects and those weirdo druids, probably in league with the giant insects, told me that I can't do that because it would 'disrupt the island', but I tell you what, I've personally tried each and every poison and if I'm fine, the island will be to."<br>
<br>
"Damnit Rusty, what did I tell you about that? Its their island, you don't kick your shoes off in another man's home, they don't want them, they don't want them," Hank said as a vein pulsed in his neck.<br>
<br>
"Up to your elbows in insects and you'll be begging me to help," Rusty countered as he took a long drag on his cigarette.<br>
<br>
"I'm going to be up to my knee in your ass if you keep this up," Hank growled<br>
<br>
<i>"Heh-ya-man-ol-hank-gonna-bam-hitcha-right-there-in-ol-ass-man-heh-I-tell-you-what-boy-I-member-one-time-this-old-boy-was-all-yip-yip-yip-and-hank-was-all-kick-you-ass-I-tell-you-what-man-he-done-scurry-all-quick,"</i> a new rapid fire voice said as Firstmate Boom stepped into the Herbology cabin with four tankards of grog gripped in his hands.<br>
<br>
"Where's Bill?" Hank asked as he took note of the four tankards.<br>
<br>
Boom gave a shrug just as the sound of crashing and pained grunts filled the hall, "I'm alright!" the pained voice said quickly followed by a bald, portly man with stains covering his white shirt, "Just fell down a few stairs.. And then some more."<br>
<br>
"Its the insects," Rusty said as he took a sip, "Up to our elbows,"<br>
<br>
"No, wasn't no insects, was just, you know, thinking about <i>her</i>," Bill said as he took a tankard and peered into the murky depths, as if he could summon forth her angelic image through sheer will.<br>
<br>
"Uh...Yeah," Hank said as he took a sip, the last thing he wanted to hear was another long speech about how wonderful this woman was.<br>
<br>
"Yep," Boom said as he took a sip.<br>
<br>
"Yep, Insects," Rusty said fully lost in the belief that they were agreeing with him.<br>
<br>
"Mhm," Bill said as he stared into the depths, the dark grog somehow reminding him of her flowing locks.<br>

Terren grimaced as a lance of pain arced through his head, a sure sign that his 'benefactor' had decided that he was working to slowly.<br>
<br>
"Ah can it ya bugger, I'm not leading my boys to their death," the mystic ignored the second lance and kept his focus on the map he was using to determine how best to scry their next destination. He looked up as a knock came at his cabin door. "Enter."<br>
<br>
"The boys have us halfway packed boss, and most of what's left can be carried on when we go to leave," Corven was quick to launch into his report as soon as he entered, standing at ease across from the other man. "Anything you want me to have them start on now?"<br>
<br>
"See if any of the Hloloc want to join us, we can always use a few more folks in the circus after all. Other than that just keep the boys out of trouble and alert for anyone who decides they want to try to mess with us."<br>

"Aye aye Cap'n, I'll talk to the elder myself then."<br>

 :<br>
Princess Long Yueliang, representing the Celestial Dragon Empire(Long Dynasty) will meet with the Governor of Port Bax. She will be escorted by Scholar Tao Jiayi, 5 Celestial Magicians, and 10 Empyrean Warriors.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The princess approached the wall outside the governor's estate -- the three housemen clamoured and their armor groaned as they turned towards her highness. One of them was about to say something, one was about to posture. It was an offense to her highness, so the Princess raised her pinky from the arm rest of her bamboo travel throne carried by her empyrean warriors.<br>
The housemen slumped onto their arms and hung their heads like apes. The impossible sound of agonal breathing and quiet snoring began to emanate from their hulking plate carapaces. Housemen do not sleep... but in the name of harmony they do. The Royal assembly quickly carried Long Yueliang past the groaning hulks, one of them falling on it's back and letting out a ceaseless sigh, it's cold breath coloring the air above it on this hot day. Those creatures knew no peace. But the princess would not let that be a reason to be offended by their brusqueness. A second one clattered to the floor as her group carried her up the greasy and algae-washed flagstones to the home of the governor.<br>
<br>
The meeting with the sniveling Governor of port Bax was a disappointment. A disgusting man in neglectful charge of a hideous backwater. What had she to say to this sniveling deviant? She let the scholar do most of the talking. Yes yes -- A net gain of three wealth for something. <b>(Gain 3 wealth) </b>yes yes -- a place would be made in the port quarter as an embassy to the emperor. <b>(Building gained, Long Dynasty Embassy) -- </b>a few baubles and palettes of trade goods and some small arrangement for trade paid for it all.<br>
She occasionally held out her hand to be noted by one of her scholars or magicians, which was all that was needed to execute the full measure of her will. The governor drooled and grovelled for what the Long Empire had to offer, but this cur was unworthy to even look upon the face of Yueliang. She stayed behind her gossamer screens and drank a fragrant tea... almost fragrant enough to drive away the stink of this latrine they called a port. Business concluded. The Imperial party left, a Empyrean bidding the governor nor any of his agents rise -- or stand in the way of her majesty as her embassy was already being decorated into something easily eight times as lavish and tasteful as this pig slough a governor called an audience chamber. At least it was not a waste of time...<br>

The Venture cannot blindly search for the scales. At the Princess' behest, the magicians of the celestial tower began setting up a formation to project a celestial map that will locate at least some, if not all the dragon scales in the archipelago. It is important to know where they should search instead of blindly exploring the islands of the archipelago which will take ages. <br>
The ritual was held, and quickly it was determined that two scales were not so far in the archipelago. One was hidden in a mystery -- "The three sistes" hid the location of a scale... but where on the map were the "three sisters"? Perhaps with some study the mystery would reveal itself.<br>
A second scale was hidden in the "Panopticon" of "Breknil LohairHo" -- some cold spike of stone and metal controlled by the dark elves some way southwest. At least the elf was not generally as boring and disgusting as most cultures the princess was exposed to. Her training encompassing hundreds of cultures... few were worthy of more than a slur that would not cross her lips. <b>(minus 1 wealth) </b>Some fortune was spent with the complex divinations -- but it was Port Bax's money. One less thing to care about.<br>
<br>
Before bed, she summoned all her assembled forces to the great hall of her new embassy of silk and lacquered wood.<br>
<br>
<br>
"There is one more issue that must be addressed before I sleep in this new land" ... The princess almost purred.<br>
<br>
"My brother's Assassin must die."</div>

<br>
The goblins threw a grand feast <b>(minus 2 wealth)</b>-- which was followed by throwing the feast at the goblins, then throwing the remains of the feast at the trolls. At some point, the goblins started throwing each other, the Wrenchmaces swatting the little flying bastards out of the air or teeing them into the air wherever the crays arced or lay... "The beatings with continue until morale improves" was the order of the day, with everyone getting an eye gouged or a knee bent. By the time the fighting had finally ceased most of the goblins were wretching violently and laughing twice as hard. All this time off got the goblins craving a little structure... so the goblins decided to go back to work. Most of them. Some continued to beat each other or bedevil the trolls, which NEVER got old. The Mausoleum had to be remodeled so the first step in getting that done was getting the trolls good and enraged then teasing them from the roof until the structure started falling apart from the trolls relentless assault.<br>
<br>
That was working smarter and not harder!<br>
<br>
When there was enough marble rubble around the basic structure, the goblins then decided it would be best if they dug a moat around the structure down to "See level" -- which was when you dug a trench deep enough that it began to flood with saltwater and nobody in the gang could any longer see out of it... that would be the water-course, with sluices made optional to flood the mausoleum (now open air arena) proper if the spectacle was going to take center stage.<br>
the goblin hobbs directed labor by occasionally kicking anyone who wasn't running... which if you're a goblin with a tape measure you don't have to get into detail about how the measurements come out. Then a tinker thinker had to lay the lines all over again, accidentally contravening the postulate that only one line through a given point can be parallel to a given line, and a Wrenchmace looked at this geometric impossibility and his head exploded. <b>(minus one wrenchmace) </b>but everyone agreed the new design was terrific as long as nobody looked at the blueprints and suffered the same fate... and anybody not running got a boot in the ass, as was right and proper.<br>
<br>
The goblins first resolved that Naval combat should be done in the moat in boats made out of Stale Bread so that ravenous fish would add a "surprise element" of slowly devouring the ships and causing them to sink. However, a supply of such bread did not exist so they made the boats out of trash and employed the trolls to try to eat them, which worked just as well. The Center stage, when not flooded, was a suitable arena once all the marble debris had been cleared and everybody got fancy seats made out of kelp pulp cushioning and broken urns and statuary. which you didn't have to tell the goblins was Surprisingly comfortable, and kept your tush cool on hot days watching the events. When they ran out of "good" seating one of the wrenchmaces remarked that a Troll poop was naturally concave, and the Thinkers ordered the Trolls to Eat a dune and "make" the rest of the chairs out of sand... which worked and held together surprisingly well. The racecourse ran around the entire structure, under the moat at various tunnels of questionable engineering and both in the central arena and along the outside edge. With the strange disappearance of the local giant scorpions, the races were held by the goblins themselves, sand-chickens (whose population was exploding since the loss of the scorpions had inexorably altered the biological distribution of the island) and of course, there were scorpion races, when the rare scorpion could be found.<br>
<br>
After a few days it became apparent that there were really a lot of sand-chickens.. which formed unruly gangs and wiped out the remaining scorpion population causing further strange collapses in the ecosystem. In the end nature worked itself out, with a carpet of sand-chickens only one layer thick and the constant predation f giant wasps from wasphold to the north to keep the sand-chickens in check. Even still, The largest chickens were surly and ornery -- so the crays started riding them. First for races, but then in mock then real combat in the arena.<br>
Peace was maintained with the giant wasps as long as they were not curtailed from eating the smaller chickens, and occasionally being allowed to bump into covered light sources, which occasionally caused fires but nothing the goblins couldn't control with constant unerring vigilance. What could go wrong? besides, the odd fire was great for roasting sand-chickens, as was evinced by many of the goblins putting on quite a bit of weight. <b>(food no longer a problem for goblins near sandrift island) </b><br>
<br>
_________________________________<br>
<br>
The Tinker Tanker was not as romantic a story -- and (<b>minus two wealth) </b>plenty of cash and materials was poured into it to restore it to functioning. The new repairs were splendid however, with the added feature of three giant red buttons that nobody was EVER, EVER, <b><i>EVER </i></b>supposed to press, but everybody was constantly tempted to. Luckily pressing two buttons at the same time reset the buttons, so invariably curious goblins tended to sync up with other curious goblins, and nobody could get three goblins to press a button at the same time, it would seem... so that worked out alright, and somebody came up with the idea of making the buttons really really hot -- which helped cut down on the instances of goblins "really really wannah"-ing to press them. A little. it helped a little.<br>
The tinker tanker got fixed though, despite the constant looming threat of the apocalypse buttons.<br>
<br>
_________<br>
<br>
So the arena got made, the ecosystem was destroyed, the island was periodically on fire and overrun with chickens, and the tinker tanker got fixed and everyone had a party.<br>
<br>
EXACTLY as was planned. Whew.</div>

Father Damien and his "White Heart Fold" Advanced far to find the source of the fires. Insects, heat, and exhaustion all took their toll before their true goal even revealed itself.<br>
There had been a war here. The Aymaran Settlement had been razed by some other venture, and left little behind to be claimed.<br>
<br>
What they did find however was the last of the Amayrans -- 25 of them, huge crocadile men of massive bulk and threatening visage... but they were injured and burned, even though they hardly noticed it. The Aymarans noticed Damien's people, but there were two things an Aymaran would never eat -- something holy, and something sick, and The White Heart was both all over. <br>
Upon seeing the redeemers a dim light went on in the heads of the Aymarans -- these people had housemen... they must be part of the eternal empire, and their settlement had been crushed for daring to break service with the Muurdaan. The Surviving Aymarans immediately swore fealty to the White Heart Fold, bringing <b>2 wealth </b>and great piles of rather stinky food with them. <br>
<br>
<b>Aymarans may now be hired by Father Damien's venture at 7 points each. 25 free Aymaran's are acquired. Aymarans can do tremendous labor and are very dangerous in combat. They are also dumb as posts.</b><br>

 The Cult of the Celestial Siblings, much scouting was done of the Mwangi ruins on Oyster Isle, Identifying a sunken temple, and the largest points of interest in the ruined city to the west. If the cult wished to excavated or explores these areas, they would be able to do so informed and with much greater safety if they used the intel provided.<br>
<br>
The White Heart Fold was also surprised to see all the goblin shenanigans that were going on all over the island of sanddrift... and goblins that saw the shine of spying mirrors seemed to wave and gesticulate wildly for their observatory neighbors to visit...<br>
<br>
An eagle spy was send to Sandbar crocodile, but never returned.</div>

In the dark of night, in port Bax -- the PERFECTLY NORMAL PEOPLE wheeled their strange bookcases in great wheel-barrows -- having come far enough to know that a bookcase should never be walking by itself. Following the psychic guidance of their experts, they used phermones specific to mimics and short blasts of mindforce to find any sign of their kin in the darker corners and out of the way spots of the port. First it seemed their task was impossible... but the longer they looked... the more of their kin they could find...<br>
<br>
They happened on a sewage drain where a drunk once lost a hand... That drain it was a mimic. <br>
One rooftop swept with sand where the birds never land? It's Chimney too, a mimic.<br>
The well on the property of the crazy cat lady? Twas a fat and happy one indeed.<br>
And the junkyard icebox where children hid? A mimic all too quick to feed.<br>
And there were others, high and low, and each with their own gimmick,<br>
A trashbin beside the pillory, among the rotten fruit, a mimic.<br>
And the Hopechest in the attic where no critters creeped at all, that hid within the shadows 'hind it bones rolled in a ball...<br>
A symbiote in an old man's brain, that did his duties Limbic -- <br>
A moving grave in potters field, a net where rotten fish were wheeled, A chest in a mausoleum sealed, they all had hid a mimic.<br>
<br>
<b>(eleven mimics are culled from Port Bax, becoming PERFECTLY NORMAL PEOPLE)</b><br>
<br>
Meanwhile, the plan to rid the homarids of the met with similar success. Trapped within the mine the lobster-beasts ran full speed into heaps of envenomed spider silk and the unwieldy beasts were poked to death with spears and fishing hooks, herded en masse into the waiting "hold" of the Mayflower. Each one was lightning-fried in sugar and devoured by everyone in the venture... venom seasoning and all. <b>(Sugar craving for the venture overcome, +10% socialization)</b> <b>-- </b>and captain Sharman helped Captain Doe collect on the Murderous King -- the cash payment not so stellar, but instead it was argued <b>two free upgrades </b>for the Mayflower.<br>
For Freeing Ayan Bakur of Homarids brought with it <b>3 units of Diamonds and a *Stock Certificate* in the new mineshafts being spelunked.</b>..<br>
<br>
<br>
Not a bad weeks work, with Sharman's crew teaching the mimics more and more how NOT to think and act...</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Having finished the basic facilities the Cult needed to function in the Grey Maidens, the group started working toward establishing an income base, hoping to finance future actions on the island. Hopefully establishing a large workshop would bring in the required funds. In addition, creating news jobs would give some of the Maidens' poor living in the town an opportunity to learn a useful trade under the Cult, and better their lot in life.</span><br>
<br>
<i><b>Turn actions</b></i><br>
1. On the Grey Maidens, the Cult will construct a large craft hall for workers and craftsmen of various specializations to practice their trade. 2 wealth spent, Ostag Sydr will use his expertise to direct the project.<br>
2. On the Oyster Isle, the shore party will investigate the ruins of Mwangi, using all gathered information to find anything of interest.​</div></div>
