[QUOTE="SelcSilverhand, post: 3914741, member: 30016"] The flaming sphere lurches forward across the deck, leaving a burn trail etched into the wood behind it as it rolls towards the mast. The rope immediately catches fire and the decking smolders from the magical heat. On the opposite side of the rope, Johan hacks at it with his sword. The combined attacks sever the rope. The deck lurches unsteadily as the ships begin bumping against each other, now bound only by the rope near the bow. The gagging and retching pirate that fled the spider swarm nearly made it to the far railing when Seria's quarrel strikes his neck. The spiders that pursued him mill about before swarming towards the bow. The man that threw the grappling hook there manages to swat them off before leaping across the narrow gap between the ships and landing amid the sailors. One sailor stabs him with a rapier as he lands, but he shrugs off the blow and draws two handaxes. The remaining pirate screams as the spiders crawl all over him. The remaining pirates leap across onto your ship, and though Johan manages to strike one as he lands it wasn't enough to drop him. At the stern of the ship, Whisper finishes her incantation and another explosion of ice shards shower the deck of the pirate ship. Roaring with anger, the one that threw his spear hefts a falchion and leaps across onto the deck next to you. Captain Fairwright shouts at the sailor next to her to grab the wheel as she draws her own sword. The sailors and boarders down on the main deck continue to trade blows. The pirate that Johan struck is taken down after a furious exchange of blows with one of the sailors. Many of the sailors now sport bloody wounds, but they fight on with desperation.
