Zurrik

OOC: Let's do it!

Zurrik smiles at the others and nods his head in agreement. "It's time to end your curse."

This is too cool. I can post directly from my Blackberry Torch!

"You're alright, Zurrik! I don't care what they were saying about you and that orc chick."

It is late in the day and the tide is wrong, so the Crest Dancer sets sail pre-dawn the next morning. The sea is a little choppy and a squall is brewing to the East, but the boat is making good time. The island where the Lich/Sea Sorcerer's tower is located will be in site well before noon.

OOC: Anyone heard from JA lately?

OOC - I guess that's a no on JA... I can't remember...who is steering this boat?

OOC: I dunno who is steering the Retribution, or whatever it's called. Gnurl, however, is on the Crest Dancer, which is being steered by Cap'n Swabby. Bon Voyage y'all! I'll send you a postcard when I get there!

H'Roosh also boards the Crest Dancer.

The island comes into view ahead and just to starboard. It is a lonely slip of rock with the next nearest island just visible on the horizon. A thin mist seems to hang over the place and it looks lifeless. A couple of small outbuildings and a tower make up the contents of the island. There is a stone dock with a no boats and a small boat house. A path leads up to a couple of crumbling structures and the tower, which could use the services of a good stone mason.

Gnurl shades his eyes with one hand and gazes upon the lonely island stretching before him. "Blast! Not exactly what you'd call an inviting vista, is it?" He looks askance at H'Roosh, waiting for some wit or wisdom from his larger companion.

Forthcoming as always, the Genasi replies, "Bleak as the northern sea, friend. The dead do not wish to surround themselves with living creatures . . . it reminds them of what they've lost or given up."

"Very poetic turn of phrase, H'Roosh, but I'd just as soon not contemplate such -- I might find myself sympathizing, albeit unwillingly, with the undead!"
