A search of the Brine Demon reveals that the
vast majority of its booty has long since either rotted away
or been lost to the sea—much of the ship’s hull is missing,
wedged tightly amid the jagged rocks. Yet an investigation
of the captain’s cabin reveals a skeleton slumped on the
f loor, its bony hands clutching at a well-made, watertight
darkwood coffer sitting in an opened secret compartment
in a rotting desk. This coffer is locked
Could this be holding interesting documents? he says eyeing the locked coffer
May be ?
Grimma let Fijit openning the coffer as she seemed quite agile while looking for anything of interest in the ship's remnant.
Grimma is only able to tell that the elements have not been pleasant to the coffer nor the lock.
Fijit tries but is unable to open the lock.
"Hmm, let me try giving the box an open." Zabivat takes out a dagger and tries to wedge it into the coffer, trying to pry it open.
Zabivat opens the chest with brute strength.
Inside the coffer are three objects—a gold locket, a dagger, and
several fat ledgers and journals.
Finn will remove and examine lightly the ledgers and journals Now lets see what we have here.
The ledgers and journals contain irrefutable
proof of collusion between Captain Kinkarian and half a
dozen Sargavan and Bloodcove government officials, who
were skimming off the tithes and taxes offered to the Free
Captains of the Shackles. These documents, among other
things, provide proof of Jask Derindi’s innocence.
And so Jask was telling the truth says Finn after reading parts of the documents to the group.
Finn will cast a detect magic just to be safe
I bet you do he says smiling to the gnome
Finn taken by surprise for a second stick his tongue before bursting in laughters...
"We didn't take much time here. We should push ahead a bit further before heading back to Fijit's cave."
With a satisfied smile Grimma said
We were right to trust him !
I propose to continue South
I agree lets continue following the shore
"Let us continue on then!"
After about twenty minutes of following the coastline you come across a river.
Seeing the river, Grimma said
I will cross first. Take the rope in case it's deeper or with rapids we don't see
After taking off her armor and securing herself with the rope, Grimma dived in the water.
Here we go again with crossing rivers. says finn after grimma has secured the rope on the other end
Zab
Using Grimma's rope the party makes it across the river.
After about an hour of following the coast it becomes extremely hot
Finn will cast endure elements only on him for the moment he doesn't want to run out of healing spell like last time
So any idea where to now?
"Some rest would feel good in the shade, perhaps near some water."
Well, we aren't in a hurry now so I vote for resting until it will be cooler.
Works for me
After resting under trees for two hours, it starts to rain and cool down, the party continues marching following the coastline. After about another half an hour you see another wrecked ship but this one is on an island a short swim away, however the that surf coupled with the on pouring rain seems treacherous.
i can't swim so i am not going any where
"Hmm, I could probably make it. But better to have help at your back. Let's wait on it. But before we go, let's look to see if maybe come of the others came this way to explore." Zabivat will check the coastline to see if there are any signs of tracks, towards the boat or otherwise.
"We could continue on for another hour, see if we can find a spot to camp, then come back if the rain looks to let up."
or we could just continue and stop at this wreck on the way back
|
"Hopefully the rain will let up soon and we can make a dry camp. Beach camping or in the jungle? Personally I suggest up in the trees with traps set but you don't look like the tree type. The beach would be good as we can see the baddies before they are on us."
"Once we choose a place to rest our bones I'll set some traps in hopes of catching food or catching some baddies."
I agree with Finn, the wreck won't be gone tomorrow. So we continue to explore this part of the isle then on our way back explore this wreck
After listen to Fijit Grimma added
I don't know, but may be we would find some place safer to crash ? Or may be people who will help us like you Fijit. Anyway we will decide when the time will come
Right then lets keep moving forward.
You trudge through the rain and follow the coast as the tide comes in.
The going is slow due to the inclement weather but it is much more hospitable due to the cool ocean breeze. The coast keeps going south where visibility is fairly poor however after another hour the coast juts sharply to the west and north. After another hour, the rain dies down to a mist as the sun starts to set to the west.
You come upon a campsite featuring a partially completed wooden shack.
A large pentagram has been carved into one wall of the
shack and several human teeth have been hammered into
the wood in its center.
DC 12 Perception check
bloodstains or other signs of violence indicating that the
campsite was attacked and its denizens either killed or
captured.
Constructions ! Yeah !
Said Grimma seeing the wooden shacks
