Newfoundland [IC]

[Pierce]

Larrock reaches into his pack and removes a set of metal tools, going to work on the box.

One never know what one might find, eh? Wait up a few, gents, and I'll tag along.

Waiting and waiting....stay centered Dural..... Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath Yes...Yes... You are quite right just would like to get away from this beach....never was one for the ocean anyway....well then....hmmm....as soon as one of you goode folk are ready I would be much gratefull in your insights into this forest....

And of course I would be happy to help investigate these barrels with you, after all "The more Birds that gather to feed the faster the Worms become"

 

[Thels]

After messing around a little, Larrock manages to pry the lock open. Opening the chest a little, he spots lots of jewelry inside, most looking pretty expensive. None of the others spots what's inside, paying attention to other stuff. Investigating the jewelry in greater detail, including appraising or counting it would require them removed from the chest. The chest with contents weights around 35 lb.

The barrels are sealed. Opening them would require either breaking them or make a hole in them.

The equipment now is very close to the water, or vice versa. It'll be a couple of minutes before the stuff starts taking water again. The majority of the stuff you saw scattered across the beach now seems submerged in the water.

Those that go up to the forest hear the same disappearing flapping sounds. The high density of leaves makes it look almost as a yellowgreen wall.

Drithmyne thinks a bit on the subject, his innate curiosity at the environs of the forest was suppressed just enough for the common sense survival instinct to kick in.
'I think we should concentrate on getting all of this gear out of the water before the incoming tide takes it away. We don't have much time. Ben would be an asset in this, as he's stronger than any of the rest of us, and bigger too, thus less chance to lose any battles those pesky waves throw his way. After we gather all of this and move it high enough so as to not become wet again, then we should foray into the woods. As well, I have a canvas tarp that I salvaged from the wreckage and some fishing line. Setting up a make-shift shelter and trying to get some food would also be a good endeavor.I suggest Ben,myself and Resa,on wreckage retrieval,Dural,Flynn and Mr Stillgem on the woods-scout and Irendol and Larrok on setting up a shelter and organizing what we find as we find it in the surf. Does that sound agreeable, everyone? As well, I am a fair fisherman, so will happily go about that after getting all of the salvagable things from the Sea. Drithmyne hopes that he didn't come off as bossy, he was just trying to be practical, and there didn't seem to as of yet be the basic semblance of any organization to their efforts.

 

[Thels]

The beach is pretty flat, so there's no saying how high the tide will get.

The items listed is the items you pulled to shore so far. There's more, but then you'd have to expand left or right for quite a distance. Most of the heavier stuff is already submerged by now.

Larrock mutters shome yertrix and concentrates on the contents of the box for a few seconds.

OOC: Casting Detect Magic.

 

[Thels]

Neither the chest nor it's contents radiate any magic. Looking around, the only items close by that radiate magic are one of the Halforc's daggers and something from within one of the coffins.

That's sensible Resa nods, sheaths her sword, and resumes the salvaging effort. She begins by carrying what she took from the corpse up into the edge of the forest. Then she goes off to gather up the items in the water (but nothing that's obviously too far out to save), working her way out towards the left side of the beach. Then she doubles back and takes the stuff higher up on the beach into the edge fo the forest. If she spots anything that seems particularly valuable or interesting she will go after that first.

 

[Pierce]

Larrock closes the chest again, not bothering to lock it. He drags it over to where Resa has spread out the Half-orc's gear to dry and picks up the (magic) dagger. I could use a back up he says, to no one in particular. Still dragging the chest of jewelry he makes his way to the coffin and proceeds to check it out.

Dural,Flynn and Mr Stillgem on the woods-scout and Irendol and Larrok on setting up a shelter and organizing what we find as we find it in the surf. Does that sound agreeable, everyone?

"Sounds fine to me," Flynn says. "Dural, Stillgem?"
