As it was blind, Manny manages to toss it into the whale's mouth killing it. It fizzles for awhile, then turns belly up.
Swim up to the queen and attack.
woohoo, you've got to ask yourself one question:
Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk!!
Emerald kills off the queen so the octopus goes away. xp=400 each including story award for freeing Sandara and Jake.
Sandara Quinn gives to Emerald her Besmara’s tricorne as a token of her gratitude for rescuing her.
Vikla uses some channels from a distance to kill the remaining Lacedons chained to the bottom.
Mission succesfully, now lets loot that place dry!

Not All Treasure Is Silver And Gold, Mate
Then let's get back to shore, These caves make me cloisterphobic, can't see the sky or the stars to know which end is up. That's the thing about living under the sea, the only constant in a 3 dimensional world is the sky and the sea floor, it's quite disconcerting to loose one and still know which direction to go.

Mission succesfully, now lets loot that place dry!
That's another 135 xp each. I will also grant 400 xp each for the rest
of the grindylows that are effectively defeated by killing the queen.Treasure: Dozens of scrimshaw objects litter the chamber in various
nooks and crannies carved into the walls. Although many of these items
are merely curious, repulsive, or both, among them are the
jawbone of a shark carved with scrimshaw images of a vast
octopus eating whales and containing a dozen silver and
gold rings hammered into it (worth 250 gp), a huge hooked
tooth from some colossal sea creature with a seaweedplugged
cavity containing six pearls worth 75 gp each,
and a whale skull weighing 25 pounds whose scrimshaw
carvings function as arcane scrolls
In addition, a total of eight 4-pound silver ingots are
attached to Sandara Quinn and the other captive pirate,
each worth 20 gp. The rest of their equipment lies
scattered on the floor among the lacedons’ masterwork
manacles, along with four heavy crossbow bolts, a silver
spearhead, an iron bracelet, 211 sp, and 136 gp in
assorted coins.
Casting detect magic
we now have both:
They function as greater bracers of archery, except they grant a +1 competence bonus on attack rolls and no bonus on damage rolls.
These bracers look like normal protective wear. They empower the wearer to use any bow (not including crossbows) as if she were proficient in its use.
If she already has proficiency with any type of bow, she gains a +1 competence bonus on attack rolls whenever using that type of bow. Both bracers must be worn for the magic to be effective.

As the summoned dolphin leaves, Laroisael swims over and helps however she can.
She looks at Sandara and the other pirate and smiles, “Thank the gods you two are alive. I had a feeling you two weren’t dead.”
Capricia returns Sandara's masterwork rapier, bowing her head a bit. Then she claps Jack Scrimshaw on the shoulder before hunting down the wand the grindylow queen had used to summon the octopus.
Manny kicks the corpse of the queen. Dummy! Gunna make Whale into fish soup!
"Was there anyone else with you? Or just you two?" Nuts chimes in the conversation.
"Let's get out of here before more of those things show up. And before those imbeciles leave us here."
Capricia returns Sandara's masterwork rapier, bowing her head a bit. Then she claps Jack Scrimshaw on the shoulder before hunting down the wand the grindylow queen had used to summon the octopus.
She had not only the wand, but a potion, a harpoon, a lobster pot containing grindylow flensing knives including two masterwork daggers, a
masterwork silver dagger, a rusting masterwork cold iron sickle,a scrimshaw blade of great workmanship depicting an octopus worth 125 gp, and 12 other blades of varying shape and quality all of them size small.

"Let's get out of here before more of those things show up. And before those imbeciles leave us here."
really?? No one is leaving anyone.

"He means that the damn ship will leave us behind if we don't get back in time."
Capricia nods at Laroisael's words. To Sandara and Jack she adds, "Plugg and Scourge had no intention of trying to rescue you two. If the ship hadn't been damaged and its water barrels burst, we'd have never come to this island."
"Yeap. See, that's our value in their eyes. I've no idea what they would do without a crew to begin with." the halfling adds.
After a short pause to let that hang, he continues. "If we want to talk about that, I suggest we do that on the way to the ship."
He looks around inquisitively, and slowly starts walking (or swimming) to whatever direction lead us here.
we should indeed consider affecting a change of leadership. It was my impression that Plugg and Scourge are a) bad leaders b) disloyal to their boss and will c) have likely alienated more people in our absence.
Vikla offers
Me thinks they were bluffing. They have no water and not enough crew to sail, so they will stay.
"I honestly don't care if they are not loyal to their boss. It's the fact that neither of those three care about their crew, apparently."

When we get back to the cabin, we should gear up and divide the loot. Then we will be ready when we get aboard ship.
I think I should make a couple of you invisible before going on board and say you didn't make it, for a element of surprise.
Climbing the cliff face and getting back to the cabin will take an hour or two.
Well, where to now that we are on top of the cliff.
Their obvious disloyalty to their boss means that, if we mutiny, we mutiny against them, not against Harrigan, who is a far more dangerous individual to mess with
I have a bless, a command, a spiritual weapon and a channel left, but am still fairly healthy.
She returns to Sandara a holy item of Besmara.
How do you look Sister?
I can sneak aboard and tell our buddies to get ready.
"Or..." Nuts has a heureka moment. "We break all water barrels, and give everyone Vikla's magical water. Since the officers don't drink that, they will just expire after a week."
He shrugs.
Sounds good to me!
On the other hand, we should just shank Plugg and Scouge. Don't let them get away for a second chance to kill us.
“If only it would be easy enough to just shank those two. We can’t do that without having to face the wrath of his loyal dogs.”
So we can sneak aboard and rally our crew! Manny starts marching for the boat.
It's about mid day when we get back to the cabin, we are out of spells and need healing, rest, to recover. We also have a lot of cargo to pack back to the ship. So, get some food and start packing. We just need to decide if we are resting here and leaving in the night or tracking to the other end of the island before resting?
we can sleep here then and sail everything back to the other boat and then the ship by morning if we leave about 3am, get there by sunrise.
Manny thinks that is a good idea and sleeps in the hat.
Once you sleep and sail towards the north end of the island there are a couple of items that remain to be identified and divided.
