Mosi looks at the new wreck.
"I am wondering if this so called accident might be something that has repeated itself several times. I can't imagine that several ships just happened to find themselves stranded here. That is unless something or someone caused it. I would love to get a good look at this ship. That is if everyone else wants to as well."
"I am fine with that, who knows what wonders it may hold..provided, of course, it hasn't been looted....yes."
Kasia looks at the ages-old wreck.
"I fear our attention is best spent elsewhere for now. For if it has not been looted already, then we are well enough leaving it another day and night for now.
"Could not it be, that this island is attracting different troubles?" Lormo looked over that ship, "I'm wondering how old is it?"
Looking the ship over Baelir ponders out loud.
"If the ship is old, how long do you think it will stay there like that? It might get washed away with the tides or in a heavy storm."
"If it is lodged there is no need to worry about it. We will see up close."
Lormo was using a sand under his feet as sheet for some equation.
"Ship is not, because it is not a sheep. But there might be a sheep at the ship, which might attack us, if we come on board" he commented to Mosi's words while counting.
Kasia becomes incredibly focused on an elephant-shaped leaf she sees.
"How much time do we have left before nightfall? Let us press further out if we have time."
@Lormo The boat is old; that it is still is a miracle.
[ooc]Sun is coming down, though you still have about 7 hours of daylight.
"I believe we should check out this wreck before anything happens to it. You never know what supplies might still be left, maybe some of the more mystical devices that can be found on the high seas are still in working condition."
Sheathing his blade, Baelir readies his morningstar instead. The heft of the weapon felt more comfortable than the thin blade of the rapier.
Cloony will move as close as one can estimate safe and look if anything is moving.
@Cloony You don't see any movement from where you are at the moment.
"All right, let us explore this wreckage. But erm, the strongest first of course, Baelir maybe? He is big and strong here."
"Honestly to say, from physical disciplines swimming and climbing are my worst", said Lormo. "Anyway, I'm almost ready to check out. Sometimes those ship can have something useful. But everyone, be vigilant - this ship hardly stays at it's current place. As we are there, always look for a land in case it starts to drift or submerge."
He mixed up several ingredients in small vial, creating a deep-blue concoction and put it on his belt.
Lormo carefully touched water and then, satisfied with temperature, left his shoes on shore. As well he left some of other staff, taking only sap, several reagents and scroll case, which has been attached to separate belt.
"I'm ready to go, but if someone don't want to swim, he can stay here and guard our stuff", he said, attaching his sap with a weapon cord to right hand wrist. Elf started swimming clumsily, more and more getting used to his hide shirt.
Lormo, Kasia and Mosi made it to the boat with some ease. Baelir and Cloony, however, are having trouble catching up to the three.
Cloony finally peddles his way over.
I attempt to use my Survival experience to determine how long this boat has been here. Kasia takes in the weathered wood, the quality of the rope, and peeling paint on the sun-bleached deck. (assuming all these things.)
Judging by the wood, it would seem to be here for at least a decade. About as old as those nice zombies over there!

It seems to be your standard zombie.
Albawar moves up and smashes one of the zombies
He misses the zombie completely.
Moving in close to the zombie Baelir swings his morningstar. The weapons heavy head should do some hefty damage if it connects.
"It appears to be some sort of undead creature too foul to walk this earth. We should let the soul rest by putting the creature out of it's misery."
Cloony aims for the nearest not in melee.
"Err...i recall some tales saying we have to 'slice them up', they just take Mosi's arrows easily. :(
Kasia is going to delay until the end of round, move & channel energy vs the undead.
"Those undeads, I cannot hurt them with my sap, unless I hit them hard enought" said Lormo, moving back to Cloony and Mosi. "I'll try to protect our ranged warriors"
"Warriors, mister Lomo? I am hardly that. But ranged attacks i do prefer, especially with the prospect of walking corpses eager to eat our flesh."
Let us lay them below the tide.
Kasia's holy energy weakens the horde, though half looked a bit better than the other. Cloony's pitiable frost chilled on of them at least. The others ignore the arrows flying at them as the shuffle towards the party.
The zombie that was attacked by Baelir slams into him.
It was too slow to hit Baelir.
Albawar's zombie also trys to hit him.
It end up just brushing against the armor.
One zombie moves up beside Albawar and the other to Kasia.
Albawar attempts to attack the same zombie again.
Cloony tries to decide which zombie to toss his next frost ray at.
"Ah well, here goes another."
Aiming for the one left of Albawar.
Baelir steps carefully to the side of the zombie and turns to the one facing Kasia and Albawar swinging his morningstar as he turned.
"Let's try and focus our attacks on one at a time. That way we can bring them down a bit faster. Oh, clumsy weapon, by the gods why do I seem to still be affected by that poison."
Lormo stepped forward, trying to find better balance on slippery wood. He waived his sap, trying to crash that on zombie's head.
"Hold on, Cloony, I will try to delay him as possible".
