Cliff goes down to the rower's room. The men are resting now, chained to the rows that are now inside the vessel. The stench in this part is terrible; rats run around their feets, the smell of sweat and urine are penetrating. Apparently the overseer is elsewhere, giving Cliff the chance to speak with the slaves freely.
Lochlan uses the excuse of transporting cargo to access the warehouse and storage area. He eyes some sailors who look at him suspiciously. If Lochan can't dissipate their doubts behaving like a true pirate, things could get nasty.
Chizz's natural agility and adapted as he was to the life on a ship, climbing the mast was as easy as a walk in the park. He spots a couple of interesting areas:
Above Kumar's quarters, the ship provides a defensible position, as a ballista is emplace there, and some crates, probably with ammunition obstruct the free passing.
Asterion indeed recalls Salmar entering Kumar's quarters, however he does not remember no one else ever entering. There is something odd about the shifter paladin, that Asterion feels. Something not complete...
