Hi all!
When I read book 6 of S&S my thoughts was "fleet battle - cool! fighting on the ships, defeating invasion - cool! next is... Hmm, so you are going to the dungeon and kill old bearded man. Wait. So epic finale of S&S is just this?"
To my mind, it was anticlimatic, so I decided to add smth.
Homebrew territory on.
While traversing Eye of Abendego, Druvalia finds ancient temple on the rock, located in the Storm's eye literally (there are no hurricane there and weather is fine). This temple seems to control Hurricane's power. So she stroke one more deal with devils - they will control the Hurricane and invoke terrible storm towards Northern Shackles, destroying fleets located there and probably few towns. In the same time, she will try to slip and strike Port Peril. The cost of this new deal is Hurricane Crown OR her soul (if she fails to deliver the crown in limited number of days to this temple, where the rest of the devils working on controlling Storm's power).
SO, after fleet battle (PCs can still spot Cheliax fleet somehow and defeat it) and Druvalia's defeat, Devil will appear, and saying that "now after your defeat, Druvalia, contract will be in full power anyway. And you, mortals (to PCs) will suffer from harvesting after {insert number} days." Then devil dissapear.
Details on this new contract addition can be found on Druvalia's ship.
As a result:
1.Now PCs have to retrieve crown from the bearded man (to retrieve the crown)
2.Be prepared to sail into the Storm for real! (to stop tsunami and storms coming from Eye)
3.And stopping devils in the temple (by defeating or handing the crown). May even negotiate for Druvalia's soul (if anybody care).
I can provide details on temple or Storm sailing if somebody will be interested.
