Leaving from Skullport

You need to find a boat. Luckily you are (probably now) the new Xanther and there is nothing the new Xanther cannot have or get.

THE VOYAGE

First 3 days are clear. But on the 4th day--
During the watch - PERCEPTION CHECK DC 15
You notice Harpy's flying above the ship. About 2 dozen of them. No more than 20 feet above you.

As you approach Zanili and Jossa island with the dinosaurs. You're boat is bumped, but as you look around, there is nothing around. PERCEPTION CHECK DC 15 -- On the starbord side there is a Massive dragon turtle. He bits the bow of the ship and begins to pull the ship down. The only part of his body that is exposed is the back of his neck.
DM NOTE:

Show spoiler

The ship is going to be pulled under in 5 turns.

If the Dragon Turtle is defeated, or runs away the ship is too damaged to continue. They need to stop to repair their boat southeast Isles.
Read: Spoiler from Leaving Skullport (above).

SURRENDOR YOUR WEAPONS

As you approach the canal, you see the cliff faces from the capitol city. The Narrowing of the canal shows that you are approaching the waterways of Mito Mitatu. Your captain, would tell you that now is a time to hide our weapons. There is an all knowing seer that will inspect the ship.
They yell, do not be alarmed this is routine check for all vessels entering the Mito Mitatu lands.
Do You Stop?
Yes

Show spoiler

Your boat is boarded by 5 Sea Elves. You boat is not allowed to move until these 5 elves have searched your boat. They would roll an INTELLAGENCE check against your CONSTITUTION if you chose to hide your weapons.

No

Show spoiler

Your captain tells you, failure to comply is seen as an act of aggression and this military is very deep.

No weapons are allowed in the capitol city of Mito Mitatu. If you are traveling to the Capitol City of Mji Wana Wa they asks that if your vessle has any guns or cannons attached to it that you park it in the harbor to the east and they will escort you into the city.

Reason for Military Agression

The military officer who has stopped you is:General of the northern gate - JOGORI (Triton, Level 15 Fighter / Battlemaster) and his 4th Blattalion.
Many of his soldiers are all aquatic races with a few humans mixed in there. Mainly SEA ELVES, Lizardfolk, Water Genasi, and Triton.
The cause for security is they have been in a long standing war with THE LIABON KINGDOM. The war is highly politically motatvated. Their son, many ages ago, burned our sacred tree in search for an primordial flower: The Ever Lily that would give House Liabon ultimate power.
House Liabon claims to have never taken the flower or burned their Sacred tree. Mito Mitatu has not been able to regow or find that flower. They believe it is the only flower in the known world.

- where the flower is on full display and as part of the ritual you must drink a juice that was made from the flowers. Drinking this puts non-vampires into a hallucinagenic state.
Flower's Abilities

Show spoiler

This is a Legendary Flower. When brewed with wine it increases your size and stats by +3 for 3days.
When turned into lotion and rubbed on the body it gives you a +3 to your AC for 24hours.
When ground up and eaten it gives you Damage Resistance for one 1hour to for Necrotic Damage.

Mito Mitatu means no harms to travelers but because of the 200 year cold war between the two nations they are just careful.

Any weapons found on your vessle, are confiscated. General Jorogi's crew. General Jorogi tells you that, you can get your weapons and magic items back after you have left Mito Mitatu.

Journey to Mji Wana Wa

The walls of the city are high and guarded. There are hundreds if not thousands of troops on the walls. The city sits on a tall facing cliff. The walk up the city is a treterous trek, about 30miles. For those who can fly it is an easy journey. For those who cannot they will need a guide.

At the base of the mountain is a Tortle, Human, and Hill Dwarf. They will each take you up to the Sun city and do their best to protect you from the dangers on the mountain.
Tortle: Estaban Shelly (9 Sorcerer / 6 Paladan)
Human: Jaquees (15 Paladan)
Hill Dwarf: (Level 15 Bard / College of Swords)

INT CHECK to search for the bottle -- DC 18.
--The magic bottle is in the horde with the gold. It is a merky green looking bottle. As soon as you pick it up. A genie appears. He looks like a giant fish. He is no non-sense. He looks like the guy from sponguebob who was hiding the pickles under his tongue.
He tells you "Who dare wakes the great and powerful Marid?"

The Genie then tells you, "I will grant you three wishes!" Use them wisely. Radier tells you to be very specific.

THE ORB IN THE VOLCANO

You were told the orb is inside the volcano. This is an active volcano. Everything you can see is this is very active volcano - with sharks.

The cavern is dark and very much a maze. Embers from the volcano below give off some light, but not much. You notice in the center of the room is a pit of lava.
Peception Check - DC 17 -- You notice inside of the lava, just beneath the surface floating is the orb of DEVISTATION. You also notice rising up from the lava is giant creature made of fire - it looks like a GIANT Lava Rat. (what the creature looks like)
It speaks in chitters. "Why do you come here?"
"You seak the destruction of my master. Only Bael can control such power."

Returning the Ywnae

Zilog communicates with you telepathically. He is back in his kingdom. He asks where you are and he can send someone to escort you to his kingdom.

Assassin's For Hire

Zilog says, "I don't asks this lightly, but the King of Jua is not going to prosecute Oscar or those responsible for the capture and killing of my people. His reasoning is, "this is an underwater kingdom matter" and if he or any other citizens of Jua are found guilty of crimes against the Underwater Kingdoms, Jua will have our support.
Zilog does not want to bring these people to justice. Zilog says he doesn't want to ask: but he will compensate you in gold and status. Because Ywnae will need a new leader and maybe even De La Sol.
Zilog asks, "I would like to hire you to kill Oscar and all those responsible for the trade of my people to Oscar. That includes the Pirate Captain Stone Foot, Wanda (who is already dead) and three nobles of House Ywnae.
