[QUOTE="megamania, post: 7528227, member: 9255"] SHADOW WAR SEGMENT 026 “PROBLEMS & SOLUTIONS” 11/24/18 LHARVION 21, 1003 “I’m glad you saw it my way.” Answers the half-elf mage. “Like I have a choice.” Sulks the captain as he looks on. “Jack, Rat and Hienes are going with me also.” Ezzy states…. Not suggests. “Anyone else?” comments the defeated Captain. “Perhaps Tenner?” “You have enough. This will cost us a day of recovery.” “Going somewhere?” She asks as the mage begins down the rope ladder. “Maybe.” She smirks and gives a “naughty-naughty” wave of her pointing finger. The four of them start off. They have come to trust and like Tabask. The kobold is okay. His weasel broke up the boredom playing cat & mouse with Morrus. Dorque….. well they do like the cleric. She? She has come to like the cute cleric. His flirts and glances have not escaped her notice. At times she put on a show for him. She hopes he is okay. It was worrisome that they sent Hienes back to the ship with food. Then they never returned to the beach for pick up. She argued to go then but she had used several spells defending off a shark. Now, the next day they can only hope nothing of harm has come of Tabask and his friends. As they pass the reef, they spot a shark in the water. It ignores them as it swims about the reef. Then they see a black and purple sea turtle. “The Darque Turtle is a bad omen.” Grumbles Rat. “Don’t be so superstitious. It is just a sea turtle with dark colors instead of green or brown.” Ezzirra states while thinking about spell choices she has. They cross the reef and look to the island. Smoke begins to rise from the mountain top. “It’s active!” Jack declares looking up and pointing. “If it explodes it will destroy the treasure!” “Treasure? I would fear the falling rock and waves. Hurry Hienes…. We must find them quickly.” “Wha… what is that?” Ezzirra and the others look. Birds take to sky by the dozens from the jungle. “Something comes!” Bursting out of the jungle and crossing the grass is a gargantuan monster. It has a panther’s head by crab-like claws. A rough chitin covered back and tail. It roars at them. “Oh……no.” The mage whispers and a tear fills her eye. Hienes begins to reverse the rowing back towards the reef. “Now we understand why the ships never see the reef- They are attacked by a demon.” Calls out Rat in a panic. “I have heard of this beast. The men in the tavern said it was further up the island chain…. I..I…” Jack can not finish it. His fear is overwhelming. As the creature gets closer they all feel the Fearsome Presence. It disturbs Ezzirra when she notes no one on the ship is pointing at the giant demonic creature. In less time to leave the ship they return. “What is that thing?” “Sahuagin! Do you not remember what a Sea Devil looks like?!?” Demands Captain Lucious of the ship’s mage. “Where?” She looks back. More birds burst into the air. The demon is no where to be seen now. “There!” calls out Rat pointing. A ten foot tall fin rises out of the water. It cuts through the water easily. “Jaws of Sorrow.” Whimpers Rat. [DM NOTES: who remembers my Jaws of Sorrow encounter?] It disappears below water which panics the crew. Even the Captain has signs of fear on his face. His luck (Thru Golden Cat) may not work against that. He has heard of the legends. A monstrous undead giant shark that is immune to magic…. Bigger than many ships. “Pull up the damned anchor!” He calls out. The monstrous shark rises to the surface again. Now five Sahuagin holding staffs rides it’s back. “The anchor is caught on something. Captain.” Calls out a sailor. “Then cut the line!” Ezzirra calls up a wind she intended to use to propel the row boat. Now it is used to fill the sails of the ship. “Go damn it! Go!” screams out the captain as the shark (same size as their ship) swims by. And so… the origin of the newest legend of terror of the sea and reason to stay away from this island begins. [/QUOTE]
