Azy Cay is
a nice little city. Everyone was really friendly, and there were many types of
tasty fruit to try. The girls enjoyed themselves with the governor-lady, and we
bought some exotic foods to replace the silk we sold. No one tried to arrest
us, or eat us, and even Krastus didn’t kill anyone. I hope we can visit again.
Our next stop was supposed to be Shark Bay. I was really excited to see a city ran by sharks. The others said that there won’t be any actual sharks there, but I remained hopeful.
Our journey was mostly uneventful, although we did see a great stone circle on the coast. Heléne said, that those were wizards, who wanted to show everyone who they were for some reason. I think, if they were really wizards, they could have used something more fitting, like a giant hat with rabbits inside it. We also spotted some Kieran ship. There was some discussion about what we should do about them, but in the end we just left them behind and they did not follow us to Shark Bay. I think they were afraid of the sharks. It might be because they still thought, their emperor is a whale, and they were afraid the sharks might eat him.
Anyway Shark Bay was full of sharks, so I was delighted. The people seemed really friendly too, we met some harbor master, who invited us for drinks. Sira was a bit afraid, that the mast would walk off, but we convinced her not to be. I mean it is much more likely, that people would steal it, than it deciding to run for freedom.
We went for drinks, and had a good time, but in the meantime the friendly-looking harbor master and his pals stole our ship. That would have been kind of bad on its own, but I discovered, that they also stole Grandpa, and my lucky monkey foot, which was much worse! I could not imagine any man being capable of such heinous crimes! Maybe Sira was right, and it was the mast was behind the whole thing, being a criminal mastermind.
We had to run to town, and find a new ship, then fight for it, and then chase the old one. It was all very hectic, but at least I managed to free Grandpa. When we finally caught up with our ship we still had to fight for it with the thieves. The mast did not attack us, so maybe it was an innocent victim after all, or it realized our strength, and tried to act like nothing happened. The others beat up the enemy crew, and I shot their captain, who was the harbor master so in the end we got our ship back.
Then we found out, that our crew was sold as slaves by these people, and now we have to go and get them back. We also need to watch the mast closely, so it won’t play another nasty trick on us. At least I have my lucky monkey foot again, so our chances have improved.
