[QUOTE="Mewness, post: 5721348, member: 14889"] The last member of the war party falls, a thin trickle of blood oozing from his ears. Pezock can barely contain his glee, and leads everyone back to his home in giddy high spirits, congratulating himself, his new friends, and Pearl. As the excitement of battle starts to wear off, the adventurers feel the effects of their long day catching up with them--it is very late indeed, and they are practically asleep on their feet by the time the enormous crab once again looms before them. No-one is alert enough to keep watch--and in any case, considering the heavy blow that must have been dealt to the cannibals this night, it hardly seems necessary. The entire group falls into exhausted sleep, and the sun is already high by the time they are alert enough to continue their explorations. [sblock=Treasure!]The cannibal leader is wearing [b]+1 bold victory chainmail[/b] (L4 item, Castile)[/sblock] [sblock=Castile and Noriaki]You sleep like a log. When you awake, you feel vaguely unsettled, with a fleeting impression that you saw something disturbing in your dreams that you now cannot recall.[/sblock] [sblock=Takahaan]The [i]Jenivere[/i] pitches violently as you struggle onto the deck.

You struggle toward it, weighed down by your armor, but the sight of a few other men clinging to it gives you hope.
