Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

"I told you already! Lyza and Henry got turned into wereshark chow back there where you found me! I'm no good with kids, but I couldn't just leave the little brat!"

"The village folk look down on us hill folk. Always bossing us around. Buy our goods cheap, then resell at the Market at a premium. And we can't do anything about it because they control all shipping on and off the island! Today, we managed to sneak out on our own boats, but... well, you saw."

"We can fix your ship just as well as they can. Better, even!"

[ +- ] Jack, Jineer, and Ian

[ +- ] Ian and Zale

[ +- ] Grog and Phillip

As Shine circles high over the beach, Nela can see the villagers running around and pointing. Perhaps they're arguing whether the airborne rider is a threat. A couple of burly men clutch spears. Another one takes aim with a crossbow.

What do you do?!

"It's impolite to lie granny." Jineer stares intently at the old lady.

Nela thinks Gesh these people. This is a peagus! She veers off a ways to keep out of range and will land. Then walk there to see if their more social able.

Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

Nela and Shine land on the beach. The villagers approach warily, brandishing silvered spears, gaffing hooks, and bows. Sunburnt children watch curiously from the trees.

Silent says:

"It's impolite to lie granny." Jineer stares intently at the old lady.

"Alright, you win!" Magda exclaims, "Those hoity toity villagers think I'm some sort witch. Which is a damn joke, because I can't brew a pot of tea to save my life! I wanted to keep Lena, alright? Because my sisters and I aren't getting any younger, and we could use a little laughter and care in our twilight years. I bet the villagers will say I wanted to cook the kid in a pie or something. If you mean to bring me ashore there, you seal my fate. You might as well have let the weresharks eat me!"

The_Librarian says:

Row ashore. anchor for. now. See what we can find. Sound goos?

With the order given, the deck hands step to it, getting the longboats ready.

What do you do now?

Nela with no arms out calls out in common in a friendly voice So do you speak common here. Not exactly sure where I am. She stops to wait for a response.

Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

The villagers do not lower their guard against Nela. "Who are you? Why have you come?" demands a heavy-set man with a topknot. Gesturing at the Kestrel, some of the villagers argue amongst themselves in a language Nela doesn't understand. The man speaks to Nela again, gesturing with his spear. "Come. The Elder will decide what to do with you."

Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

Nela smiles, There is not what to do with me. Myself and the ship out there are looking to dock here for supplies and repairs. Not looking for problems. Is this an open port?

Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

On the beach

"It is not." the man replies sternly. "At least, not open to those in league with pirates and sea monsters!" he gestures at the tentacle whip hanging from Nela's belt. Judging by the looks they are throwing the druid's way, a shifter also counts as a monster to these people. Even Shine is being regarded with suspicion rather than the awe a majestic pegasus would normally inspire.

On the Kestrel

Magda seems unconvinced by Phillip's words, but offers no further protests. It looks like she's resigned to putting her fate in the crew's hands.

Peering through the spyglass the captain lent him, Ian can see that Nela is being arrested by the villagers.

Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

Nela replies with a spit in her voice PIRATES. We just killed dozens of such. She motions to her tentacle whip, That is a taken bounty from their evil priestess no less than a day ago..

Seeing doubt in them I'm high priestess Nela of the Druidical Circle of Coast (No other name was ever given for this druid hood.) and surgeon & healer aboard the Kestrel under our mighty captain.

She motions to her mount, And this here is Shine my faithful mount. Shine nods her head as she fully understands what is being said.

Now I ask, may we please dock and trade here. Our Kestrel has taken on damages while fighting the pirates that we gave no quarter to.

OOC:

WOW. Gods must be looking over here to get 20 on that.

Jabes.plays.RPG says:

The Kestrel has its own longboats, but you can take the Minnow if you wish. There are enough oars. Whoever's piloting each boat, gimme INT rolls DC 15. Include Water Vehicle proficiency if you have it.

I never saw any rolls, so I interpreted that as the group still undecided what to do as a result of Magda's revelations. The deck hands did prepare the boats on Ian's orders, but I didn't see anyone actually getting in them and rowing for shore.

Re: Chapter 3: The Silver Isle

The villagers lower their weapons somewhat. The leader approaches Nela. "I want to believe you, but it's not my decision to make. If you truly mean us no harm, please come with me to speak with the Elder."
