Spell, sword, and arrow wound the drake but the finisher is Tsaaruck's retaliatory strike that is even fiercer than the blow against the other drake. The drake has barely taken wing when the hammer smashes it out of the sky. It hits the deck hard and lies unmoving. For a moment it seems the deck is enshrouded in silence then sound comes rushing back in the snap of the sail, Captain Minali's crow of vicotory, and Zartosht's muttered exclamation of awe.
"By the gods! I've not seen the like."
Unfortunately, though the drake is dead the legacy of its caustic mucus still plagues Garadh and Tsaaruck. It continues to burn them long moments after but eventually is neutralized though the two warriors are looking equally red and irritated across large swathes of their skin. Zartosht takes over at the helm for the captain and Captain Minali come down from the aft deck to exclaim over her passengers.
"Zartosht has the right of it," she says shaking her head in amazement.
"You move like a whirlwind, Samad, and Tsaaruck hits like a crashing wave. Brother Goswald has found himself a team worth hiring." She includes Garadh, Quillion, and Pirvinia in her effusive praise as she continues on in a boisterous manner. Finally, she settles enough from the excitement to remember her promise.
"You worked as a team and you'll split the reward: you all sail free this trip and have earned my gratitude. But I know gratitude doesn't feed hungry warriors." She grins and wrests a thick golden band laced round with tiny gemstones from her finger and hands it to the one closest to her.
