Re: DaleOfShadows: Maztica, 14 Eleasis OOC


 

"Ooh! I could do the sea voyage thing!", a strangely excited Tabby squeaks, "We can drink grog?
and sing sea shanties!", she cleared her throat and broke out into song and a little?dance.?

?"Oh, Sweet William, he's a half-orc so bold,
With a fiery spirit and a heart of gold, He sails the seas with a crew so fine, In search of treasure and adventure divine.

His axe is sharp, his sword is true, His fists are strong, his spirit so blue, He's fought the beasts and the sea so wide, And he's never once let his crew abide." ?


OOC: Tabby has no idea what grog is.

As the group sits together to discuss the rumors they¡¯re heard and plans for the future, Sweet William, finally full, clean, rested and happily buzzing along the ale trail, weighs in.
¡°Seems to me the gods have set Amn before us. Rather than looking for local cave gems or stumbling around magic mazes, I¡¯m?partial to the idea of o sea voyage. It¡¯s been too long since I¡¯ve felt the wind in my face and a deck rolling beneath me.? I miss?the sea. Far better than getting buried alive in some dwarven sand tunnel!¡±

Throughout the celebration, through casual conversation, Flynn?learns that a ship is leaving Helmsport on the East coast sailing for Amn?with wares of spices and feathers and gold.


Considering the distance and season,?

North?calculates the journey of roughly 2400 nautical miles to take about two Tendays, give or take a day or two. (OOC- reminder: in Forgotten Realms, a week is ten days, and therefore, called a Tenday. /OOC)


However, Cerina?(Ear To The Ground) has heard rumors of strategic portals at sea that allow the distance to be closed in a much shorter time period.


Whilst drinking with a pair of Leonin Warriors, Sweet William?hears tale of an underground ¡®tunnel¡¯ in the desert that leads through veins of gold to Amn, however only the Dwarves of the Sands of Iztcalaknow where this is and they are notoriously difficult to find, let alone negotiate with.


A pair of Tabaxi maidens fan cool air over Tabby?and praise her with compliments, mentioning that she would look goddesslike draped in the sparkling crystals of The Caves. Fine rubies, emeralds, and sapphires belong all over a heroine of her prowess.


Even Brother Ashley?is drawn in by rumors. He almost hesitates to mention it to the Gnomish Sorcerer but too much drink loosens his lips and he reveals knowledge about the magicks lost forever within the mazes of the Bay of Shoals?in nearby Pezelac.


Rumors abound in the jungle, and food and drink brings exaggerated tales with each teller trying to one-up the last. Eventually night falls but the revelry continues on late into the night and even somesuch into the wee early dawn.


By mid morning you¡¯ve all awakened feeling well rested and energetic, ready to seek out a new challenge.


Do you continue to explore Maztica? Seek out the ship back to mainland Faerun? Rest and recover another day or more? Something else?




And what do you do?
