[LPF] The Devil We Know, Part 2

[Scott DeWar]

If Lem is still nosing about, then move to W,21 for a double move.

~ Aboard the Prancing Prince: 16 Minutes after sunset ~

Lem doesn't find anything unusual about the crate of provisions he examines.

You reform up and follow Vicenzo's lead down the stairs to the next deck below.

Six large ballistae are housed here, screwed to the deck and mounted on rails so they can be pushed through the swinging doors on the side of the hull and fired at nearby ships. There is no ammunition present for these weapons, however, and the deck is empty.

Galandra's eyes sweep the area with light. She tenses up a little when she sees the ballistae but eventually looks to the other side.

Galandra places two fingers over her lips to warn everyone to stay as silent as they can. She pats Vincenzo's shoulder and points at the other door to their left.


[sblock=OOC]Thanks, P. Galandra points at the door on AQ34[/sblock]

 

[Scott DeWar]

Vincenzo nods without a word and moves slowly and quietly across the deck, shuddering at the thought of getting hit by one of the ballista's bolts.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Lem moves towards the door, also, but takes his time, so as to avoid creating more noise.

Amien takes a glance around the room, gazing towards the ballista with admiration. He nearly opens his mouth, but has to slam it shut before he ruins everything. He continues to follow the others with his light.

The two felines take one side of the boat each, noses close to the ground searching for the tell tale scent of hidden foes as they move forward.

~ Aboard the Prancing Prince: 16 Minutes after sunset ~

You start creeping about the ballistae deck. The door leading aft is closed.

The scents the felines pick up are of people and sewer. This deck has not been scrubbed clean, but the scents are not necessarily new as the ship has inhabitants that have been everywhere recently.

"Locked" Galandra whisper under her breath to Lem and Vincenzo. "Can you open the lock? or should we keep going? Looks like they got scent of something" she says pointing at the cats, specially Mika's behavior. The cat is wagging her tail in anticipation and making a small chattering sounds.

Maui might be able to discern the following. "People. Near? Hunt?" One of her ears is turned forward and another towards Galandra, waiting for any order but stays put with Menik.

Galandra keeps following Vincenzo with Lem.

Vincenzo, still fruitlessly trying to relax in the environment, keeps an eye on where he is going, just in case the pirates have a deadly surprise up their sleeve.
