Message: <blockquote data-quote="ethandrew" data-source="post: 3541998" data-attributes="member: 17456">As his senses are heightened internally, his environment becomes apparent to him more so than before; the casual rhythmic beating of the waves cascading against the sand, the perpetual wind whistling as it wends its whispered way between the boughs of the island, the ragged breath of the other five men as they stave off exhaustion and uncertainty.Slim looks around at all assembled, reserving a hard stare for the dark haired squatter before he bows extravagantly in the sand, "Well met, good sirs. Having scoured the beach far and lo, chance has brought us six men together. It seems no other landlubbers dared to make the treacherous swim to this lush island of ours, leaving us quite to ourselves. No threat is imminent other than nature and its ilk, and so my altitudinous friend and I have deduced it most beneficial should we seek shelter. If one would prefer scour the shore once more for any ill-fated goods or bodies to loot, I would understand, but as chance brought us together, I fear it would be foolish to blatantly scorn it by separating ourselves. Ergo we should stay together, use our numbers as assets, combining strengths, eliminating weaknesses. Take my lofty friend and I, he reaches those hard to get spots, I get those low ones his back loathes to bend for, so as such, the six of us should humor chance for rescuing us off that boat and landing us here together. So, to shelter? Introductions can be made on the way, or if the more formal of our numbers would rather, a quick greeting could be performed before the onset of our next leg."</blockquote>
