Stupid unraveling tapestry. Stupid wrecked ship. Stupid no crafty crew. No one know how to fix Korundo's ship. Fine, Korundo make it like Orc swamp ship. That better anyway. Orcs best at fixing ships. Orcs best at everything.
At least nice talking lady come along too. She always make everything more fun. D
on't mean like that. You got smutty mind. Get mind out of orc swamp gutter.
Korundo gather up enough vines. This terrible way to start day. Korundo thing Ketaphys agree, pray to him for little help here. With lady help too, he think he can lash ship back together...
Korundo never lash so many uneven planks back together. Hmmm. Not pretty, but it float. Orcs best at floating.
As Korundo piece ship back together, lost man seem to get interested in ride home. Why he ask Korundo? Why he not ask talky lady? Or why he not animal? Korundo best at dominating talking to animals.
Mangrove Swamp Master-at-Arms
Korundo tell man he can have ride when ship is good and ready! Man look scared and wander off with hands up. Korundo not understand; ship is good and ready, why he not get on board? ::shrug::
Korundo send Wolverine out to scout ahead. *snikt* He waddle back with Shortbow.
Not best bow or weapon could find, but at least wolverine obey. Now it Thylacine. FETCH. Preferably bad guy.
But no. It bring back Buckler.
Minions finding things, but finding BORING things. Fed up, Korundo strike out on path, and pray to Green Faith for a fight. He not find monster, but at least find problem to solve, so ship is not Becalmed.
Korundo ask nice talky lady to sing good sea shanty to help Korundo catch wind before it die...
Thanks to lady's rhythm, Korundo catch last gasp of breeze and sail ship into branch of swamp with swift current so ship not becalmed.
Sailing in swamp hard work! Korundo take snack break. Munch on Angelstep and Wintervine!
Use Wintervine on Angelstep recharge check.
Korundo not sure if Angelstep so good. Have to pick different bunch from garden next time. Wintervine tasty, though.

Nok-Nok wanders along the top of the Rocky Cliff, pushing small things over the side to see how far down they fall.

From the top of the cliff, Nok-Nok spots a Pirate Captain wandering the shores of Shark Island. He waves his hand in dismissal and Lamashtu banishes the buccaneer fool.
Nok-Nok wanders around in circles for a moment and then plops down to stare at clouds. And plots their demise.

Salim surveys his lonely island and then ponders his situation. He looks at all the weapons strapped to him and reluctantly acknowledges the call to action from the Lady of Graves.
With that he heads off for Shark Island.
But before he can reach shore he is ambushed by a flotilla of rats. With a exasperated glance and perhaps a curse to Pharasma he wades through the rats, slashing out with his Dogslicer to cut a path through the horde.
Defeated, Banished.
Despite their numbers, Salim is able make short work of the rats and fights his way to the island.
He arrives at what is clearly some sort of cemetery, where a local Grave Tender spots him and explains the trouble that they recently have been having with the local Sea Devils.
"You see, usually we have sharks, so many sharks, but today there's been this Sea Devil calling people out, we've lost four so far today. I was just praying to Pharasma that some hero would come along and sort this for us."
Salim rolls his eyes and heads off in the direction the grave tender indicated. Prepping his weapons for the fight ahead.
Defeated, Banished!
With a final slashing flourish, the cutlass lashes deep into the Sea Devil's throat and it slowly sinks back under the waves. He feels the disk of Pharasma he always carries heat briefly, acknowledging he has followed the Lady's will.
Just as he is about to head for the shoreline, a Hammerhead shark leaps out of the water, teeth snapping for his head.
Defeated, banished! - Shark Island is Closed
With speed honed through many hours of practice, Salim slides to the left, flicking back his clock as his Melted Blade sings in the air and lashes out thrice into the shark. Vital organs hit with each stroke, the shark falls dead at his feat.
With a slow nod, Salim acknowledges this was the right place to come and that he has completed the task he was sent here for.

While the big and strong Korundo is busy, I poke my nose where it doesn't belong - which always leads to fun or profit. Sometimes both, if I'm lucky. I find a hidden potion - Liquid Ice, unless I miss my guess. I call upon the Blessing of Asmodeus and the advice of my good fried Marianix Karn to see if I might acquire it. I smile as I extract the potion, stowing it my bag for a rainy day.
I decide not to press my luck, and catch up to Korundo.

Korundo can see pretty lady is getting tired of Mangrove Swamp, especially after she offer to play flute if Korundo try to get shit done .
Korundo power forward and nearly trip over discarded Musket.
Great. More mundane weapons for Korundo to carry. Korundo use it to nudge Thylacine forward and go find something more fun. Kitty come back being chased by Bilge Spider Swarm. This more like it! Korundo love to school uppity animals. Thylacine already step on a few spiders . Korundo pour all shot into musket and fire. He aim for heart of swarm, knowing how best to stop swarm .
Korundo don't want to let down Siwar lady. He call to Gozreh to help show him the way to baddie bad, but instead he is attacked by a wandering Mercenary. This make Korundo ANGRY. Touching the Animal aspect scroll at his belt, he doesn't draw it, but draws primal power from it .
Siwar adventure song shift to bouncing battle accompaniment. Korundo spin away from mercenary, then rend him with animistic power. As enemy limp away, Korundo slump on stump like lump to rest.

Salim heads off following the shoreline to try and find a ship to take him from this place. As he comes around a point he finds a small cove. Looks likes a perfect place for pirates and ruffians.
Given the rapier stuck into the side of a nearby tree, he's probably right.
Salim examines the rapier to see if it's still serviceable.
Success, acquired!
His expert eye says, it's nothing fancy but serviceable. He pulls it from the tree and stashes it in easy reach.
He's about to leave the tree when it occurs to him that this seems like a likely place for a pirate to have stashed his goods. He takes a moment to wander in a tight circle around the tree looking for significant landmarks. His intuition leads him to a spot that seems likely. Digging a bit into the sand he finds a Large Chest.
Success! Banished
Salim is a little disappointed as he pulls basic weapon after basic weapon from the crate that he unearthed. Clearly it must be another call from Pharasma to dispense some justice...but just as clearly it must be a mundane issue given the tools at hand.
Salim takes a moment to sort his stash before heading forward.

"You've got this, Korundo," I say, patting his arm as he rests. "I'm going to see how Salim is doing, okay?" The big, strong, orc nods, and I have the crew of the Feathered Devil take me to Mancatcher Cove, but the only man I want to catch is the inquisitor.
"Hello my dear," I say, stepping down from the ship. "Have you inquisited anything?"
He grunts. "Only a chest of trainee weapons."
"Here, let me help you feel better," I say, conjuring a Cure spell.
While Salim finishes resting, I poke ahead and spot some crudely scattered Caltrops on the most obvious climbing spot. I attempt to use a cantrip I learned from a chatty wizard to scoop them up. To my surprise, it works, and I collect the caltrops into a bag.
Feeling emboldened by my success, I call out "Hey Slip. What do you see?"
The halfling steps out of the shadows, unseen until he wants to be. "A gnome pirate. Calls himself Giffer Tibs." "He knows a thing or two; might be worth talking to."
"Very well," I say, climbing some rocks over to meet the stranded pirate. Grateful for the rescue, Giffer Tibbs pledges himself to our cause, and I send him back to the ship. But not before he shows me a better way to access my magic.
Not wanting to push my luck further, I climb back down to make sure I can help Salim. After all, it would be foolish in my line of work to have an inquisitor as an enemy; an ally is much better.

Nok-Nok enjoys the solitude of the Lonely Island.
Suddenly he is no longer along: a Sea Devil jumps from the surf. Nok-Nok is sad he has not an ally to throw at it. He swings at the merfolk half-heartedly.
. Success?
The Devil is defeated. Nok-Nok is presented with an opportunity to seal this location, but cannot.
Nok-Nok tosses the empty mug and looks around some more.
There is a loud ka-chunk sound and a harpoon flies at Nok-Nok. He presents his chest and the pointy doom of the Harpoon Trap.
. Success: the harpoon bounces harmlessly off of Nok-Nok. "Thank you for scritching that itch!" he shouts out to no-one.
Nok-Nok has one more look-about.
A pile of chains on the ground looks kind of like a net with holes in it. Nok-Nok tries to pick it up.
. Success. After turning it over a few times, he finally makes out the top and bottom. He puts the Magic Chain Shirt in his pack.
Nok-Nok puts his armors deep into his pack and rests on it.

Continuing with his exploration at the Mancatcher Cove he is surprised to run into his companion Siwar.
And even more surprised when one of the local palm trees starts into a hypnotic dance. Quickly he realizes it's actually a Nirento and Siwar hasn't noticed it yet. Afraid that she'll be caught by the carnivorous tree, he rushes into action.
Success, can use weapons.
Defeated, Banished
Fortunately Salim has fought these sorts of beasts in the past and so he quickly ducks and weaves between the root structure, avoiding the vines that whip out to ensnare him. He slashes out and translucent green sap starts flowing. It takes some time but eventually the tree creature stops swaying and bleeds out.
Together Siwar and Salim continue heading into the Cove when again the local Grave Tender approaches. "Thank you so much for handling that Sea Devil earlier!" Then with a surprisingly high pitched screem the Grave Tender points over his shoulder at the largest Bloodbug that Salim has ever seen.
Again The Melted Blade lashes out at the danger.
Defeated, Banished, drawing a card for Grave Tender-Psychic Detective.
In a veritable shower the bloodbug is sliced open, spilling it's bloody last meal across the ground.
About that time, Salim receives divine premonition of a hull being breached. Looking around he spots a pirate ship that is just pulling into the cove. He quickly sees that the Sea Devils have swarmed around it and are preparing to damage it's hull.
Success, banished! Ship is repaired
Salim informs Siwar of the issue and between Salim hurling a few rocks and Siwar's sonic vocal attacks, they are able to drive off the Sea Devil's before they are able to do damage. Unfortunately, they might also have alerted any enemies in the area to their presence, but that couldn't be helped.

"How exciting," I say. "What's next?" Just as Salim and I look about for more Sea Devils, I spot the glistening of metal in the sand. Bending down, I find a Musket +1. I whisper a prayer to forgotten gods, invoking the Blessing of the Ancients, and see if I can safely extract the weapon. The weapon is finely crafted and mechanically enchanted; I tuck it into my belt.
"Find anything interesting?" Salim asks, wiping merfolk guts from his blade.

Korundo not excited about his options right now, but hope any minions he must eat at Cannibal Isle are easily replaced there. As he slog up beach from dingy, Crab Swarm skitter across beach like maybe they want to eat Korundo. Korundo inspired by wily Fox, use inner animal to outsmart swarm {ooc]reveal Animal trait to use Survival +1d6 for combat[/ooc].
Part of swarm part around Korundo's stomp, evading attack. Luckily, Korundo have two feet.
More stompy stomp take care of crabs. Korundo bury remains to come back and claim for crab feast later.
Fox sent for scouting, find Lookout hiding up tree. Korundo give token effort to recruit, but humans always so scared of orcs. Lookout no different; he fall out of tree, run off into forest. Fine. Let him get et by his own kind then.
Splashing way along beach, Korundo Whisper prayer for action, and Green Faith not disappoint. Devilfish swim up to try and make a meal of Korundo. Korundo share look with Sedja, take its instincts to attack.
Korundo not blame devilfish. Korundo delicious. But Korundo not feel like being dinner this day, and instead feast on Devilfish.
Korundo not feeling so good after eating devilfish, also hear bad things happen on cannibal isle overnight. Maybe best Korundo ride Sedja to Mancatcher Cove and ask pretty talky lady for antacid. *hic*

Salim, feeling a bit more winded than he expected, heads deeper into the Cove escorting Siwar through the surprisingly dense foliage. Finally breaking free of the tree cover they come face to face with the Sea Devil Prince himself.
Salim calls out the discovery, knowing Pharasma will carry his words to his companions and allow them the time necessary to prevent the Sea Devil Prince's escape.
Korundo call upon strength of Ketaphys to help secure Cannibal Isle.
Korundo love it when plan comes together.
Salim glances over in the distance to Lonely Island and sees his companion Nok-Nok holding some sacrificial rite and then looking defiantly back towards the Cove. Salim hopes that nothing untoward has happened...
In addition, he's pretty sure he hears the triumphant bellow of Korundo in the distance.
Reasonable sure the various avenues of escape have closed, Salim wades in to the shallows to face the Sea Devil Prince. The Prince sees him approach and summons forth minions. Knowing Siwar has his back, he rushes forward to engage the main threat.
Siwar reacts with incredible haste singing, out a spell of command and turning it back on its master.
With Siwar directing her newly acquired Sea Devil minion, Salim lashes out at the Prince. His blade glowing with divine light.
Despite knowing he landed a solid hit, Salim is impressed, as the Prince shrugs off the cut and attacks with a renewed purpose. Calling on his reserves, Salim dodges to stay ahead of the attack.
Dodging back as the Prince retaliates, Salim repositions, using Siwar's charmed Sea Devil as cover and then striking solidly through both the minion and the Prince, as his Melted Blade flashes with a hot white fire.
With an audible sizzle, Salim whips the blade out and cleans the blood from the blade on his fallen foes.
Salim will start at the Fog Bank.

Taking a quick survey of the Holy Isle, I pull out my flask and take a long drink. "Here's to you, Cayden," I say. Korundo hangs back, fiddling with his gear, but I'm impatient, so I step off the ship onto the shore. A glint of gold catches my eye, and I dig a holy symbol in the shape of a key out of the sand - a Blessing of Abadar. Taking whatever favor I can manage, I pocket the key-shaped pendant for later use.
Feeling pretty good, but not stupid, I shift my thoughts slightly so my friend River, the Psychic Detective, can hear them. "Anything fun ahead?" I ask.
"Hmmm," I hear her reply. River thinks loudly, so I wince ever so slightly. "There's a scroll case buried under the third palm tree to the left. Might be worth a look?"
"Thanks, sweetie," I reply, and shift my thoughts back to normal. I walk over to the tree she indicated and dig, and quickly find the scroll.
One of my employees, a Raconteur named Carmen, comes running up to me with his funny red hat. "I found someone I'd like you to meet," he says. I smile and follow him,
He leads me to a stranded pirate who's looking for work - and rescue - and introduces himself as a Master Gunner. But just then, my Dredge runs up and whispers something into my ear. Smiling, I say "Why don't you tell me who you really are?"
The gunner smiles, and in an instant his form shifts to that of a Tidepool Dragon. A dangerous foe, but a powerful ally. He smiles, teeth bared. "I commend you on your insight. Or that of your servants. Shall we negotatiate a deal?" Before long, the dragon has agreed to enter my service for a reasonable cut of our treasure. Whichever gods are blessing my time here, I must remember to thank them all later.
Not wanting to push my luck, I pull back to the ship and wait for Korundo. I rearrange my gear, stowing my newly acquired scroll for later, as I prepare to support my favorite orc.

Korundo travel with chatty lady to Holy Isle. She chat with folks seen and unseen then make person turn into dragon. Korundo edge away a bit after that and explore shrine garden. A small arrow stick out of palm tree nearby, Korundo thing it might be Blessing of Erastil.
Korundo hear boons like this just not unstick if they not want person to have them. Korundo unstick boon, it must want to be his.
Holding it in his palm, tiny Erastil arrow spin around and point towards bench outside edge of shrine . Beneath bench, Korundo find scary scroll Fear.
Korundo not afraid of words on paper, pocket scroll for later.
Korundo nudge Stone Weasel out of pocket to sniff around shrine . It come back with Blessing of the Gods and ask for treat, as if Korundo not know anyone can pick these up.
Korundo punish weasel, send him off to beach to forage, then follow boon guidance into the shrine of totems, over to guise of Gozreh. A small leaf Blessing of Gozreh blow on breeze, land on Korundo's nose.
Korundo know this boon he seek. Carry leaf out of shrine to beach, then crush it into little bits and hold in palm of hand. Ocean breeze pick up leafy bits and carry them in a spiral down beach .
Korundo run past Siwar lady and talky dragon, waving to follow. Beyond bend in shoreline and around peaks, leaves blow on spiral winds to rocky cove, then scatter onto water and sink.
Korundo know leaves not sink. Leaves float. Thanking Gozreh, Korundo peer into water until he spot outlines of Shipwreck beneath surface. After a look from Korundo, sweet voice lady being singing mermaid song , and Korundo as Green Faith to fill his lungs extra full as he dives in.
Korundo swim down to depths of cove-wrecked ship. Only a few undead denizens for Korundo to punch through, sad. Most of treasure must be pilfered or carried by tide, but Korundo find scroll tube in lone remaining chest, tuck away for later.
Resurfacing, Korundo commune with gods shrined at Holy Isle and convince them to close its tides to unwanted visitors. Korundo feel them agree as gods restore boons to Korundo .
Not wanting lady's songs to go unheard, Korundo summon Sedja to carry them back to ship before losing tide, and sail for Fog Bank with others .

Nok-Nok peers through the Fog Bank. He can hear companions but not see them. He spins around and starts heading in a random direction.
The sound of honking leads him back to the ship. Dinner is stuck in the ropes overhead; there's a Goose in the Rigging. Siwar's disembodied voice offers advice.
. Success.
. . Success.
Nok-Nok takes the goose down to the galley and trades it to the goblin culinary staff for a shiny rock and an energy drink.
He heads back into the fog looking for something to kill. Instead he finds paper with scribbles on it.
. Fail.
The paper is of no value to Nok-Nok. He wonders if anyone else wanted it while crumpling it up and tossing it over his shoulder.
Nok-Nok has had enough of the fog for now.

Salim strides to the fore of the ship, in an attempt to peer through the very dense fog. He's about to give up the task as pointless, when he sees a shipwreck looming out of the fog.
'Shipwreck dead ahead, hard to port and prepare to heave to!'
Defeated, Banished.
Assessing the situation quickly, Salim guides the ship adjacent to the wreck and the crew of the Feathered Devil is able to shift a few men across to check the wreck for plunder.
Random Armor sent to plunder.
While the crew loots the wreck, Salim climbs the mast and peers out over the fog. Nearby is the Windward Isles, looks like maybe there is something glinting on the beach over there.
Salim waits for the crew of the Feathered Devil to return before attempting to navigate out of the rest of this fog.

My scouts inform me there are menacing monsters running amok all around, except for the quiet of the Raker Shoals. So I ask our captain to take us there; she objects, telling me how risky it is, but I remind her how much confidence we have in her abilities and how generous her salary is, and she complies.
Although, in hindsight, maybe we're paying her too much as she almost immediately turns us into a Shipwreck. With a sigh, I call down the favor of the Vaultkeeper via a Blessing of Abadar, and get to work trying to manage the situation. Working together, we manage to avoid becoming a wrecked ship, although it takes some doing to patch up the rest of the hull.
As I cast a Cure spell on myself to freshen up after the hard work, I peek out over towards the Sea Caves and see a Merfolk playing in the water. I wander off to let my allies know, and prepare to help them out.
