[QUOTE="J. Alexander, post: 3379250, member: 28453"] [b]Sailing North[/b] The party ascends the stairs and reaches the main deck. Looking around they spot the Captain and several officers grouped together on the quarterdeck and a petty officer passing out boarding pikes to two of the off divisions of sailors. It is night but there does appear to be extremely dark clouds in the sky and the wind and waves are picking up. The ship itself is running at a great speed due north and their is a call to put on more canvas. The watch springs to do the Captain's bidding and soon more sail is raised and the ship leaps forward under yet more speed.
