Of Parrots and Pigs

by Torrielle Highwave

Well the ship was not as big a deal as we thought. Captain Merle Peggsworthy, a freeship? free captain? Whatever those guys are called sailed into port, not realizing that we were in port because no one signaled from the watch tower.
 
At Rickety's request (and for more money off the ship) we went to check it out. We fought some boars on the way! I summoned a big tiger to help out, who I named diego. When we got to the lookout point Johan was dead, likely killed by the wasps and his parrot was flying around telling us and the flies to shoo off his corpse. I lured the bird back, much to GReedy's dismay and rehomed him with Stilga. We turned him over to rickety to be buried.
 
Rickety gave us some information of Peggsworthy. A strong crusader against slave ships, he was able to give Kalibek some information and confidence surrounding the bastards known as the "Sea Wraiths". They sound like really bad news, but very difficult to find. Hopefully we can find the colors that imprisoned Kalibek and blow them from the waters.
 
We discussed next steps with a ridiculous amount of bickering and putting of things in pockets, but we managed to list out some ideas. Apparently the new guy Daelg is looking for god. Well a god. The Fathoms Maw? It's not the Sahooligan god but it sounds mightily similar. I don't know about that. He was alarmed to learn there are other gods but stuck to his pilgrimage plan. Brea's easy seemingly, but I have a feeling there is more to tell there. Stilga is still seeking her father Sigmund.
 
Brea asked what I was looking for. It's the first time someone other than stilga has asked. I told them about Nani and the maybe sea dragon. They didn't quite know what to think, but our discussion was interrupted by the announcement that our ship was ready to go.
