[QUOTE="megamania, post: 6350088, member: 9255"] THE HIDDEN 09 ROAD TRIP SEGMENT 078 “ADRIFT IN THE SEAWEED” 7/27/14 BARRAKAS 3, 999 A sharp rap on the door stops Persia from swinging with her fist. “What? I thought I made it clear no one was to bother us!” Roars the Lecherous Captain. “A ship- sails down, adrift ahead of us.” CREEEEAAAAK! Groans the first board as Truth begins to remove the cover of the box the dead son is stored within. A few more boards and Truth can see his body now. He looks like he died just that day. He gently pulls on the eye lids and indeed the eyes are blue throughout. Hoping to find something related to the Draconic Prophecy, Truth pokes and prods the body. Under the cupped hands of the dead boy is a small stone. Looking it over, Truth decides it has a permanent Gentle Repose spell on it meant to preserve the body for the long trip at sea. “What do you make of it sir?” asks a crew member of the ship. “I don’t like it. There are no colors even. We don’t know if it’s a pirate ship or a lost navy ship. But we can’t ignore it either. There may be people on board that require assistance. We need to send our mooring ship to it to investigate.” As he says this he looks to RAF. “As a warforged I doubt it would be wise to send me but my allies….” The overly large warforged fighter offers. Rolling their eyes, they gather where the sailors and crew are preparing a boarding ship. “I don’t want our ship in that mess!” the captain calls out. “Keep off the seaweed until we know what is under it.” Witt looks up as the ship goes down. Under the mask he gives a stern look of we will return if you leave us. The others do the same but lack the masks to hide it. Cy, Tom Garvin, Witt, Malachai and Persia set over along with Roadie. Truth remains below unaware of the events above. As the ship begins to enter the thick seaweed Malachai and Witt watch the water under the seaweed while Tom scoops up some to look at. “Looks normal.” The seaweed drags down their progress but they reach the ship. They toss a grappling hook and line onto the ship and anchor their ship to the side of it. RAF and the crew watch as they climb the lines except for Persia whom is going to watch that no one messes with their one way back. The ship is empty. There are no people on board, no product useful to pirates. The only valuable left is the ship itself. Roadie and Malachai climb the ropes to the top to look from the high vantage point here. Witt goes below hoping to find something missed by the pirates that obviously took the ship. He never considers that pirates want the ships also due to use and worth.
