The Master of Gales waits impatiently for someone to step up.
Ixrul will step up, calmly ignoring Jrahk's body.
We'll have him resurrected.
"You are the acting Captain now?" the old Druid asks.
Assuming you reply in the affirmative, he goes on.
"Quickly now, as you've wasted a lot of time on foolishness."
"Here is the prize purse." he hands over a heavy sack of platinum and gold
He then pulls a silver plated manacle out of his robes, chain dangling a few inches from it. He attaches it to Ixrul's wrist.
"This is a symbol to recognize your freedom from the laws of other nations, but new responsibility to the people of the Shackles. You're a Pirate Council member now, think of this as your badge of office. The welfare of the Shackles as a whole is yours, and vice versa. This is your only sovereign land now."
Finally, he pulls a small scroll from a sleeve and hands it to Ixrul.
"Finally, this is the deed to your new island, a place we know as the Island of Empty Eyes. Fair warning, this is no mere prize. It also ats as further test of your prowess. The island is inhabited and dangerous, but is yours to command should you wrest control of it from whatever lives there."
"Any questions?"
"None."
"Good."
The Master of Gales turns into a giant albatross and flies off.
Is it just me, or is Master Gales a bit... Strange?
He's a druid.
Ixrul will get the captain reincarnated.
Jrahk refuses the spell.
Ixrul raises an eyebrow.
"Ok, then."
"Well, we'll sell his stuff, I suppose."
Ixrul will have him resurrected.
You're able to locate a Besmaran temple with a priest who won't gouge you TOO much.
"Normally the hard part of this spell is getting the diamond dust to sprinkle over the whole corpse without missing a spot but, eh, just lay him in a pile there and it should be easy."
After a few minutes of rolling Jrahk bits around like she's trying to make fried chicken, she begins chanting, and a few moments later, Captain Jrahk is reborn!
He is interested, though perhaps disappointed to note that all of his battle scars have been wiped away, and his missing leg is restored to him, pushing the clockwork contraption off as it erupts from the stump.
Jrahk groans and sits up groggily.
"Gah...that was...painful."
He looks down at his legs...and growls angrily.
"Oh, now you've done it! You humiliate Jrahk in front of his own crew, and now you caused him to lose all his scars, the proof of his courage and strength?!"
He leaps to his feet, snarling.
"Jrahk can't let him go unpunished. Jrahk will train as hard as he can, use any technique he can learn, until he can DESTROY Harrigan!"
"Whatever you say, captain."
Ixrul will purchase a few spells and get Sandra to start preparing Make Wholes and Greater Make Wholes with him until the ship is fixed.
He will also use Blood Money - on top of Lesser Restorations from Sandra - to give himself permanent Read Magic, Comprehend Languages, and Detect Magic.
Jrahk notices the ghostly presence still wrapped around his body.
"Oh, you're still here? Guess we can go fix your remains, now that we've got nothing better to do."
"We'll probably have to find the guy who helped us track down the Banshee the first time. Fitch was his name, right?"
You can easily remember where the Banshee was.
"Hey, buddy, you're actually fixing me up? Thanks a ton. Say, whaddya say I stick around, huh? Keep you company by the wheel on those long trips. I promise I won't f+%* with ya any more. Much."
"Let's hope not. If you got the ship wrecked again, you could be stuck to Jrahk's corpse at the bottom of the sea forever!"
Jrahk grins at his crew as he boards the ship.
"Look sharp, boys! Your favorite captain has come back from the dead! And now, we're gonna help someone go back TO the dead!"
As he plots a course to the Banshee, he tries to use telepathy with Ixrul, but it doesn't seem to be working.
"Huh...has anyone seen Odan?"
From chattering with the crew, you recall someone noticed Odan slipping into the crowd after Jrahk got killed. He mentioned something about having learned all he could about your kind of people, and was going to seek new areas to learn more about different cultures and lifestyles.
"Hm. Jrahk was starting to like the little freak. Oh well."
"So Ixrul, you got the ship all fixed up?"
It takes over a week, but the ship is back in tip-top before long.
