[QUOTE="talien, post: 5002721, member: 3285"] [b]Isles of the Damned: Part 3a – White Gorilla Island[/b] The entire Skull rocked as Kham concentrated yet again on his pistol. The rest of his companions had become accustomed to it. “We’ve been flying in circles for days,” said Beldin. “You’re going to crash that thing if you don’t get the hang of it.” “Hey!” Sweat was on Kham’s brow. “You’re lucky we’re not being attacked by the Maulers.” “The what?” asked Sebsatian. “The Maulers. The metal skeletons.” “You know their names now?” asked Vlad. Kham nodded, never looking away from the pistol. “I know lots of things now that I have the Leviathan Pistol.” “But not how to fly this thing,” muttered Beldin. Von Grebel sighed. “We are running out of time. Sycorax will use her ritual to subjugate her followers today. We’ve got to invade or it’ll be another twelve days before she does it again.” “Sycorax?” Sebastian stared at von Grebel. “Sycorax, mother of Camring, impostor to the Sea Lord’s throne?” “Black Jenny Ramsey,” Kham said breathlessly. “She’s taken on a new persona as the White Queen of Gorilla Island.” “Gorillas,” said Vlad. “Seriously?” Von Grebel nodded. “Sycorax’s slaves built a series of arcane obelisks that focus the Hook’s dominating powers. Once every twelve days, gorilla work crews travel through the city with wagons filled with human prisoners. When they reach the obelisks, the gorillas shackle a human to the top of each one and bleed him to death. The obelisks reinforce Sycorax’s dominance so that her control over every sentient being on the island is complete.” “Gorillas?” Vlad asked again. “Daen had to get those undead gorillas from somewhere,” said Sebastian. “So what’s the plan?” “While she’s at the top of her pyramid, absorbing the energy from her sacrifice, we sweep down, scoop her up, and take the Leviathan Hook from her.” “You think that’s actually going to work?” asked Beldin. “It has to,” said von Grebel. “It’s the only time she’s vulnerable without her guards. Even then, she will be no easy foe.” The Skull shuddered again. “Uh oh,” said Kham. “What do you mean, ‘uh oh’?” asked Vlad, his voice rising. “The good news is that the Skull is flying towards Black Jenny’s pyramid.” “What’s the bad news?” asked Beldin, fearing the answer. “I can’t make it stop.” [/QUOTE]
