As the boat continues on its way the heavily lurching longboat leads the way, much slower than your larger vessel forcing the captain to drop the sails and travel by manpower.
As you near the island, you see rocky white-topped cliffs looming over a small cove. A large wooden for positioned at the center of a small clearing looks upon the cover from high above, its two seaward towers casting long shadows in the afternoon sun. A wooden pallisade connects the two towers, and two wide wooden ladders extend from the top of the wall to the narrow beach below. A large gate, its massive doors shut tight, marks the center of the wall. You can see the remains of what was once a large dock that has since been turned into floatsam. Men are busy repairing the damage. Anna's crew rows her boat to the shore, where it joins an additional longboat, which is about halfway built.
Your own vessel is forced to take anchor about 100 yards from the island and you are dropped into a rowboat the rest of the way. Captain Morgan calls out "We'll take care of the supplies, you see what's up with Lord Henri" his distaste for the title obvious.
Once you put into land, the soft sand leaves imprints of your feet as you struggle to regain your sense of balance after such a time at sea. Anna waits for you patiently and then asks "All set to go met Lord Henri?"
