We left Joomba Town - finally they listened to me. It was a small victory, but one I hope had them learning that I did know somethings. Silly pink things.
Shortly after sailing out we found ourselves with a very interesting situation. A ship, adrift and derelict. The crew seemingly dead on the deck. We hauled up close, and we boarded her. I went up to check on the steering system - which was destroyed - while the others explored. The Captain was having fun in the cabin below me and was in there a while - before he came stumbling out and telling us to get off the ship.
We did.
Then the captain said we had to reboard the ship, now full of animated corpses. This seemed like an odd tactical maneuver. But, well. What are you going to do?
We took a boat and scaled up the back of the ship - walking in my case. I smashed one window so the smaller ones could get in and then I went at the other window so that myself and Grip could get in. We eventually got in, found Helene hurt, and put an end to their captain. And then...well. The captain took the enemy rapier and attacked me. I was surprised and so was badly hurt. I tried to dispel on him, eventually he got himself under control, but I was badly hurt. I grabbed Helene and escaped.
Humiliated by the captain....oh, he will pay for this one, after all the nonsense they gave me about my axe supposedly making me attack them? No, he will pay. But I might make him pay in contrition - make him learn humility. Or make him into a gelding.
