[QUOTE="Dantardis, post: 5196291, member: 46174"] Sailing on the two vessels were enveloped in a storm, visibility became restricted and the two ships lost sight of each other. The storm did not abate for many hours and it was only through the superb piloting skills of Captain Cal that the Sea Wyvern remained on course. A few hours later a fog sprung up reducing visibillity to zero. The following morning as the fog cleared the crew was surrounded by a huge bank of sargasso, extending for miles in several directions. Embedded in the sargasso were several dozen wrecks of other ships, several of them many years old. As there was one wreck only a few hundred feet from the Sea Wyvern they decided to sail to it in the ship's longboat to investogate it and found it to be swamped in strange evil smelling vines. Elaine found a pouch containing parchment written by one of the vessels earlier passengers. It revealed that there was something in the centre of the Sargasso Sea which was controlling the substance and therefore trapping them there. Mobilising the longboat again the party rowed on into the centre and found the wreck of the Thunderer. It was far more dilapidated and in a worse state of repair than the other vessles, it appeared to be at least 50 to 75 years old. Investigating this vessels the party found more of the strange vines. Moving deeper into the vessel, Merocto who had been sent by his master to espy out the vessls was struck by one of the vines. Lucius, who was only slightly behind his parrot, was similarly struck and grappled by a vine. Jack then moved in to hear him. Elaine tried to hit the vine but missed. Cal struck a mighty blow and killed one of the vines. Lucius cast magic missile and Elaine was hit by one of the vines in retaliation. Bodger was similarly hit by one. Elaine was subsequently grappled. Moving in again Cal strruck again, and assisted by Jack and Bodger finished off the creature. As it died there seemed to come a deep keening sound from below, in what would correspond to the inner hold. Moving into this area the party saw a horrific sight, a stylised bound of vines, assembled into some semblance of a woman, there appeared to be strange child like creatures surrounding it. It continued to make the keening noise, trying to shake the party but their resolve was made of sterner stuff. Quickly loading his bow, Bodger fired two shots at the creature. Cal moved forward and hit the creature. The creature then retaliated by hitting Cal. Lucius hit the creature with a magic missile. Bodger hit it again and did some damage. The Creature, enraged moved forward and struck Elaine three times, with a cry Elaine fell over, pumping blood. Lucius hit the creature again. Jack tried to move forward to heal Elaine and was criticalled by the creature before it turned its attention to Cal, hitting him. Lucius tried to step up his attack and struck the creature with a flaming sphere. Cal tumbled out of the creature's way after striking it a mighty blow. Lucius struck again with a flaming sphere and the creature dissolved into a puddle of muck and vines. At this precise moment the ship started to shake and the party quickly saw that the sargasso was dissolving into normal seawater. Leaping back into the longboat the party rowed away as the Thunderer returned to the depths. Perhaps its crew were finally at rest. The longboat drifted for less than an hour before they were picked up by the Sea Wyvern, which had been salled by Amella venkalie.
