The Role of a Captain
Kazagal and his son left the Mermaid today. I can't even start to summarize what has happened since last i authored a journal, a wild goose chase to piece together contracts and constant bureaucratic nagging would be a fitting start. Timmy sold his soul, Kazagal sold his in return and we've been trying to fix the idiotic family since then, even though Timmy almost killed his own father, me, Jeanne and Nakor a couple of days ago. The ludicrousness of this starts to wear me down. All I wanted was to sail the ocean, earn good and honorable pay and drink in the harbors. Instead, I am now the captain of this vessel. Not a bad upgrade, but with an unexpected promotion still comes some responsibilities.
I have realized that my duties now lie foremost to my crew. I rescued my parents. I helped Kazagal and his son to reunite and for none of them to be lost to hell for eternity. I've seen crewmembers die in ultimately futile undertakings. Much of this with origins in happenings occuring while I was inland. This can not be accepted of a Captain, as I would not accept it were I a sailor under one. Therefore, I believe that my days of adventuring on anything but this vessel has come to an end. I will continue to aid my friends - for that is what I've realized they've become, although their many flaws, but I will not be doing it inland. I will ferry them, protect them and most likely try to correct them, but that is limited to the ship and the vicinity. My crew needs guidance, and a present Captain on deck. This is what they will have.
We are closing in on the Yelanids. An interesting area to say the least, and with the expected battle with pirates most likely a dangerous one. I will be ready - for my crew and my friends. Then, we leave for Jeannes secretive mission.
One last time as a member of the Shore Party,
Dormaruk
