Chapter Six: The Muster of Caltlikrath

The conversation, basically, was Sour Fruit asserting that only he had the experience and moral authority to lead the crew and that the boatswain was a coward who did not deserve life, much less leadership. The rest of the crew was more or less acquiescent to Sour Fruit's insistence on helming the ship but did not feel like the boatswain and the other crewman who hid needed to be killed. There were also concerns expressed that you (the party) were dangerous to keep as passengers and dangerous to cross, and that it would be best to just take you to Utwar and not invite further complications. Sour Fruit asked Flat Snake who attacked first, how the pirate ship was set on fire, what Domarc said/promised to the pirates, and Flat Snake mostly answered that he wasn't sure or didn't understand what was being said.

The crew takes in Mordred's antics with a sort of grim stoic politeness.

As night begins to fall, do any of you wish to take any particular precautions with regards to your sleeping arrangements?

You're sleeping in communal quarters with the rest of the crew.

Domarc's performance goes over a little better and seems to engage the crew, but they're still in pretty low spirits after the events of the early morning. Sour Fruit hears what Domarc has to say, but does not offer much back in the way of response.

You can't shake the feeling the Sour Fruit and his loyalists have their eyes on you, but you remain vigilant through the rest of the voyage, and eventually the welcome sight of the castle of Utwar's spires reaching up through the morning fog reaches your eyes.

The crew of the Swiftness of Camazotz has little to say by way of farewells as you disembark. Even Flat Snake seems as though he'd rather forget any of you were ever on board the ship.

You have returned to the city of Utwar on Bload. It is mid-morning, and the weather is cold and foggy. Hazard is about 250 miles to the northeast, give or take. What does the party wish to do now?

You came here by boat, but going back to Hazard via the river would be an upstream journey and not necessarily faster than going overland.

You're in town, it's daytime, the shops are open, all seems well and normal in Utwar. Feel free to do any shopping, information gathering, etc you like.

Birdborne messaging is a thing, but it would be specific to certain places/trainers, there's no organized raven network or anything. Likewise, magical long-distance communication is possible but not commodified. You are all more than welcome to poke around Utwar to look into this!
