What a strange thing to ponder. Lizzie thought as she studied Helio for a moment. She was willing to bet that this wasn’t the actual reason he was still up here, but she’d play along with him. If he didn’t want to divulge what was really on his mind then she wasn’t about to push that at this moment. When it came down to it Lizzie really didn’t care all that much, she was just making conversation. ”That’s quite the intriguing question. I suppose it would depend on whether or not the person was born blind or went blind later in life.” She said with a shrug as she glanced over to Barboda.

The words the man spoke weren’t at all surprising to her, death and murder were dear friends to Lizzie at this point, but it did seem his words were a bit of a surprise to Helio. She briefly noted the dumbfounded look on the fairy’s face, knowing that her next words needed to be chosen carefully if she didn’t want to completely shock the red haired man. She decided to reassure Helio first before answering Barboda. ”I know it sounds extreme because it is a bit extreme but, if it helps any, know that the crew of this ship weren’t good people. They were involved in some minor slave trade. They already had one man in a cage below deck and they attempted to capture me as well, likely to be bound to the same fate.” The lie rolled off her tongue with such conviction and ease, she only hoped that Helio would be against slave trade. Lizzie may be a terrible person, but she still had some morals and she believed deep in her soul that people weren’t cargo. They deserved to be free, no matter what.

She then looked back to Barboda once more to finally answer him. ”I understand your concern, however if you killed the whole crew then who’s coming for the ship any time soon?” She gave him a small grin, but then laughed a little. ”Besides I dare them to interrupt me while I’m eating.” Her attention was soon caught by shouting below deck as well as Nym coming up and preparing the ship to leave. Yes, she definitely liked that man. The voice of the shouting, however, she was beginning to wonder if he was too much of a loose cannon. If he tried anything, though, she could have him tied up to the main and strip the flesh from his back. If that didn’t work then he may end up dancing the hempen jig. She let out a sigh and shook her head, deciding to let whatever was happening below deck happen for now. In the meantime, she actually needed to see if the captain’s quarters had a map so she could familiarize herself with it. She also knew she’d need to confide in someone about not knowing anything about this world, but who would be the best choice for that? Éliane would likely be the one most likely to keep it a secret, but the woman was below deck and Lizzie didn’t feel like going down there. Nym was shaping up to be her first mate, but he was busy doing as she’d asked. Helio and Barboda also seemed to already be full of secrets, perhaps they could keep one more?

”I have a task for the two of you, care to follow me to my quarters?” Before either of them could answer, however, she was walking towards the captain’s quarters. She also needed to change into her new outfit.

Have I finally met my match? Lizzie briefly wondered, a giddiness running through her. She definitely felt challenged now, but it was a challenge she would happily accept. Could she break him? She supposed only time would tell. Either way, if he truly was what he said he was she wouldn’t deny that he could be a valuable asset on the ship. She knew that very soon she’d see what all these people were capable of.

She briefly glanced over at Barboda, wondering how the man would respond to Tesoro’s taunting. Did the armored man have a temper? Lizzie was willing to bet that he was more likely one to let something go, but make you pay when you were most vulnerable. Either way, Lizzie’s eyes were currently trained on Barboda when Tesoro exited the cell. Her eyes snapped to the large man, however, as he called her ‘lassie’. Anger flashed in her eyes briefly, but she was silenced briefly as Tesoro kissed her cheek. She hadn’t entirely expected that and now she found herself watching him as he went up the steps. She shook her head briefly as she spoke, ”I can’t decide if I wanna fuck him or murder him?” She sighed and then glanced over to Barboda. ”Shall we go back up and eat some of your delicious meal?” With that she headed up the stairs.

She was greeted by the sight of Tigerlily putting on her new clothes. Lizzie found herself smirking a bit at the woman, wondering why she’d chosen now to change and doing so in front of everyone. Lizzie wasn’t subtle in the slightest as she looked the woman over, noting the scales on the woman for the first time. How curious. She then looked to the others. ”Everyone meet Tesoro. Tesoro meet the crew. We’re all one big happy family now. Welcome aboard the Harem.” She said as she moved over to the food, grabbing a few items and placing them on a plate before walking away from the table. ”We weigh anchor in twenty minutes. Nym, have this lot on deck by then. If you need me, I’ll be in my quarters.” She said, delegating a task to Nym to see if she could trust him to follow through with something simple. She then walked up the steps.

She was about to head towards the captain’s quarters, but her eye was caught by red hair. She looked to Helio and cocked her head to the side curiously. Why wasn’t he down eating with the others? She found herself heading in his direction instead of towards her quarters. ”Not hungry, dear prince?” She asked him with a coy smile, leaning against the ship's railing as she took a bite of some food.

Lizzie listened to him speak, noting every single move he made. She crossed her arms over her chest, unintentionally...or perhaps intentionally, highlighting certain aspects of her upper body. This man was definitely one to be wary of and not to be underestimated. He seemed cunning, reminding her a lot of herself. Then there was the fact that he just snapped his bindings rather easily. That was certainly something that she could easily ignore, though she refused to show any outward reaction to it.

After a moment of silence, Lizzie busted out laughing as she looked over to Barboda. "Blimey! Barboda I think I like this on!" She said, recovering from her laughter as she placed a hand on the bounty hunters shoulder for a moment. She let out a few more chuckles before dropping her hand and looking at Tesoro once more.

"To say I don't like what I see would be a lie, but I must make you aware of something." She slowly began moving closer to him, hyper aware of any movements he might try to make. If he tried to grab her she had a few tricks up her sleeve. "You are not the first man I've come across of your…" She paused to look him up and down for a moment before continuing. "Stature, but I'll have you know that every single one of them I've brought to their knees." She gave him an alluring smile. "And I've made every single one of them beg, savvy?" She allowed a moment to pass, letting her words sink in as she watched for a reaction. Little did she know that behind her the water from the ground had begun to rise up and swirl around in a strange dance.

Suddenly the water dropped, still without her knowledge, and her expression changed to a carefree one. "If that's understood, you're willing to follow the laws of my ship, and you lose all thoughts of mutiny then you may stay aboard my ship. We need more able-bodied men like you. Either way you have your freedom." She glanced over briefly to Barboda.

"You can free him now, Barboda. If he tries anything stupid you may kill him." She said to the man, far too much joy in her voice.

The burst of wind had truly surprised Raven and it seemed like she wasn’t the only one. It had thrown the troll off for long enough for Annya to strike. Next thing she knew she was flying through the air before impacting something or someone, as it seemed. The breath was knocked out of her for a moment as she glanced at Annya, trying to pull herself off of the woman. She proceeded to watch as the elven woman called her axe back to her with what had to be magic. She stared in mild awe before realizing she should probably back up.

Before she could move she felt someone dragging her backwards. For a brief second she thought it was another troll and yelled out, wiggling in panic. She then felt...heat? Man it kind of burned. ”Ow! Let go! Let go!” She yelled as she looked up to see Saoirse. The girl let her go and Raven was quickly patting at the back of her arms, convinced her clothing was on fire now. When she was satisfied it wasn’t, she glanced back at Shae, but actually staring at the sparks around her wrists. It took her a second to register that the girl had asked her a question. ”Uh yeah, I’m alright I think.” She said as she pulled herself off of the ground.

Shae then asked if she could climb and Raven now looked at Shae’s face in confusion. She was about to tell her she didn’t like the idea of it when Ismael seemed to interject, having the same thoughts as Raven. ”Yeah I agree, I’d rather be a moving target than a stationary one in a tree. Besides I’m pretty sure those things are using trees as clubs. I wouldn’t like to be on the swinging end of their next weapon.” She agreed, briefly glancing over at the battle and wondering if the two trolls would be distracted for long enough to try and stealth. She then briefly wondered what her stealth modifier would be and what these trolls' passive perception was. ”For now I think I’m just gonna retreat into the shadows a bit, keep my wits about me, and let those that know how to handle these things do so. If I tried to help or anything I’d just be in the way and put others at risk.” She said as she began to move, deciding to try and pull Saoirse with her.

She then leaned in to speak to the woman quietly. ”Uh, have you taken a look at your wrists lately?” She asked, wondering if the girl had noticed the sparks too. By the looks of it, Raven would guess that Saoirse had fire and it scared her a little. That could be a very deadly power and she could kill them all quickly if she lost control. Or she could set the entire jungle on fire. That wouldn’t be a good thing at all.

Mika glanced over to Kuroi, noting the irritation on his face. While she felt bad that he was annoyed, she also figured it wasn’t something she could entirely help. ”We may be having to meet them somewhere in between at this point. They’re coming this way and we’re going that way. I have communication with them.” Mika explained to him, careful not to really say any names.

Her attention was then caught by two newcomers in cat masks. Mika blinked before beginning to study them as Siv replied. Who were these random people and what were they up to? Her eyes narrowed at them, but her attention was grabbed by the human. She stared at him, a bit appalled as he introduced himself and started speaking quite boldly. Her initial reaction was to slap him silly, but she stopped herself as she realized he was speaking from a drugged state. When did he mistake her to be proposing loving though?! ”I...wel-...umm…” She was trying to find the right words to say as she felt a slight pink warm her cheeks. Thankfully something else happened as she heard a scream and watched a man fall off the roof into a pile of hay. ”Hold that thought Slick.” She said as she turned to look at Yuka, locking eyes with her for a moment.

Her vision was then blocked by Kuroi as he stepped protectively in front of her. She did lean her head around him to watch Yuka as she listened to Kuroi’s response. It was at this point that she knew she needed to make a decision. Did she remain quiet and appear a coward like she assumed Yuka thought her? Or did she speak up? She would risk revealing herself and potentially bringing herself more danger, but this could be the point in time to prove what kind of ruler she would be. This thought almost made her sick, was she actually accepting the fact she was to be the next ruler of Roshmi? Perhaps she had been trying to run from that fact by leaving the palace that morning.

She took a deep breath as she reached out and gently placed a hand on Kuroi’s shoulder, speaking only to him at first. ”She’s speaking the truth. I hate that she is, but she is.” She sighed before stepping around him, glancing up at Yuka again before looking around at the crowd. She held herself tall as she pulled her hood down.

”Everything she is saying is the truth except for one thing. Not every Yoshikawa wishes to save their own skin. I am Princess Mikazuki and I am not my father. He is siding with the Dark Elves and he’s doing it out of fear. He’s never really cared about his children and would gladly sacrifice us for his own benefit.” She now glanced around at the people, determination on her face. ”I wish to be different, I AIM to be different. I wish to be a fair and just ruler, a ruler for the people of Roshmi. So when you go to spread the word be sure to make it know that Princess Mikazuki hears your voices and she will find a way to put an end to this Dark Elf alliance!” There were some cheers and she glanced back at Kuroi, fully expecting to see displeasure on his face. She needed to speak up, though, and she hoped he’d understand.

Lizzie glanced over to Barboda as he claimed to have experience on a ship. He also seemed to have a surprise for them, but that would have to wait a moment longer. Her eyes landed on Helio for a brief moment as he mouthed to her encouragingly. She would have laughed, but merely gave him a nod. He was trying to help at least. In total it seemed they had four people including herself that knew how to sail a ship and one that was claiming to be a fast learner. That wasn’t terrible, though the ones that already knew were going to have their work cut out for them teaching these landlubbers.

Tigerlily claimed to have faced some of the nasty creatures lurking in the deep and Lizzie logged that away in her mind. She’d ask her about that later, figuring it was best to know what they were headed up against. Nym impressed her the most. He was old salt, it seemed, and he was shaping up to be her best choice for first mate. She’d have to discuss that with him later, though. ”Wonderful. I shall request those with experience to help those that are lacking. Learn swiftly or face the potential of being left at our next port town.” With that she followed down to the feast that was waiting for them.

Everything smelled delightful and she so badly wanted to dig into the food. When was the last time she’d had a meal like this? Had it been close to a year ago now? Her stomach growled in response, but her ears caught what Barboda had said and she turned to watch him head below deeper into the ship. She sighed as she knew she should go down there as well. She turned to the rest of the crew and spoke. ”Eat well, once everyone is done I want all hands hoay.” She then looked at Nym, thinking for a brief moment. ”And we’ll call her...the Harem for now.” She smirked at him then began heading down the steps.

She listened as Barboda and the caged person spoke, not yet revealing herself to be there. So he was a captain as well? Hmm this could be quite interesting. He finished speaking and she stepped out of the stairway, smirking at the shirtless man as she looked him over. ”Well my luck just keeps getting better and better doesn’t it.” She swaggered closer to the man, never losing her grin. ”So, Captain Tesoro, I’m Captain Lizzie Murphy and our purpose is to commandeer this ship and get the fuck off this island. I’m willing to free you, but might I ask what I’ll get in return for your freedom?” There was a playfulness to her tone, yet also a dangerous ring to it as well. She truly didn’t like having useless cargo on her ship.

So they were heading to someplace called Riverport and their kingdom was likely about to be attacked? Raven supposed that made sense since they had summoned the humans and it seemed like their enemies knew that. She was just glad that it seemed like they were prepared for this to happen. Her attention was then briefly grabbed by Kharne as he placed a hand on her shoulder comfortingly. She glanced up at him, gently placing her small hand on top of his and giving a thankful and reassuring smile. She was thankful to his kind gesture. She found herself glancing back to where the carbuncle once was.

What happened next she wasn’t expecting at all as the boisterous princess came over to her and was now looking at her. ”Oh...well Chicago is the city I live in and cosplay is…” She had to think for a moment as how to explain what cosplay was. ”Well it’s where you dress up as fantasy characters and take on that persona for the day to bring yourself joy and bring others joy.” She hoped that would make sense to the woman.

”As for the carbuncle, I suppose we have them in a sense. In a video game called Final Fantasy they have exactly those creatures. It’s curious to me that you call them carbuncles as well.” Raven explained, putting a pin in the fact that Annya had one as a pet. It made Raven curious if she could acquire one as a pet at some point too. What a story that would be to tell her friends when she got back to Earth...if she got back. That thought made her feel mildly sick, but she pushed it aside.

Saoirse began speaking and Raven watched her for a moment, noting how she avoided people's gaze. When she glanced at Raven in warning, however, Raven couldn’t help but roll her eyes. What was she seriously worried about? They were in a world that knew nothing about her, what were they going to do? Even if the only other human in the group recognized her name, Raven was willing to bet Annya and Kharne wouldn’t let him do anything to her as humans are a precious resource at this point.

Her attention was grabbed by Ismael as he asked how professional cosplaying worked. ”Yeah kinda.” She started in response, getting a little excited to talk about her job. ”So certain companies will hire me to portray a certain character at a booth of theirs or at some event they’re throwing. Then I’m also an influencer on sites like Instagram and TikTok and people will request me to be at cons for meet and greets.” She explained happily.

Ismael then asked if there were creatures in this jungle they should be worried about and it sent a chill through Raven. She hadn’t even thought about the potential of something dangerous being in the jungle, but if D&D taught her anything it was that this was very likely. She got a little nervous as she glanced around, realizing that Kharne also seemed to be at the ready which indicated there was likely something dangerous out there. ”Um I’m just going to point out that I have very little combat experience. Most I’ve done is slap Shae once when we were younger because I was mad at her.” She told the group, the nervousness obvious in her voice.

Wumong & Faye



Time: 5 am
Location: Wumong’s Monastery in the meditation room










Breathe. It was a simple command, but Faye was finding it difficult to accomplish ever since last night's events. She felt like there was a heavy weight on her chest and every breath she took was painful. She felt ill to her stomach and wondered if she was going to throw up again. Her eyes were bloodshot and puffy, but no more tears fell. She was fairly positive her body was all out of them. She'd expelled all of them last night after watching Echo die and through the night. Unfortunately she didn't get much sleep through the night and sleep wasn't about to take her any time soon.

What was she to do now? Go back to the River Kingdom with war on the horizon? Did she just let Echo's death go? Could she? Another wave of pain hit her and she sucked in a sharp breath, holding it as she closed her eyes trying to will it all away. She lay there on the floor of a room in Wumong's monastery where she "slept" the night before. She didn't even feel the hardness of the ground as her limbs felt numb. Was he really gone?

Slowly she pushed herself off the ground. She had to do something, she needed to find people who opposed the Dark Elves. How was she supposed to do that, though? She knew one person who had been involved with the resistance in the past, but the thought terrified her. No. You need to find him. It's for Echo. She took a shuddering breath as she slowly left the room to find Wumong.

When he would see her she didn't look well. Her hair was unkempt and ratted. Her dress was disheveled and her eyes had dark circles under them on top of being red and swollen.

Wumong was cross-legged in his meditation room, eyes closed, when he heard steps coming from behind him. The red-furred monkey was in navy blue pants with a part of a tiger pelt wrapped around his waist. He also adorned beautifully crafted red and gold bracers on his wrists; his quarterstaff sat just in front of him. The wood room around him was quite empty aside from the scent of rose incense burning on a pedestal at the front of the room. He had been there for quite some time now.

“Dear, I can tell by your footing that you are not well,” He spoke quietly before he stood up. He stood up slowly using his staff to pull himself up, he turned around with sad brown eyes to see the sorrowful fairy walking towards him. He knew this was not a time to play and joke but a time to provide support. “Listen dear, you will get through this. I have felt the pain of being hopeless and lost but such are the never ending tides of life. Things come and things pass.” He walked toward Faye placing his hand on her shoulder. “I will help in any way I can, you need but ask.” He said, smiling towards her.

Faye forced a small smile on her face, truly grateful for his words of kindness. She felt bad that he was having to see her at one of her lowest points. "Thank you, my friend. Your words truly help." Her voice was scratchy and hoarse which made her wince slightly. She swallowed, trying to help her voice be back to normal. "I think I want to find Helio." Her voice faltered a little as she said the dark fairy's name, but she continued onwards. "I think I want to help the resistance, but the only way I know how to find them is through Helio."

Wumong’s eyes widened at the mention of his old student; he had heard the dark path the fairy had taken and what he had done to Faye. He was intrigued why she would look to him for answers, even if he knew something about any resistance who knew where in Avalia he would be. Wumong was lost with no leads. It would be a hard task to follow. “Well dear, if that is truly the path you would like to follow, would you have any idea to help guide our way?” He questioned, raising a brow in her direction.

Faye slowly nodded as she remembered a friend of Helio's. "We'd need to go to Roshmi and seek out a man named Bastian. They were best friends and he'd likely know where Helio is at. He may even be there with him honestly." She informed him as she bit her lip.

Wumong pondered a moment thinking about it before he abruptly spoke. “Hmm… Well I suppose we shall get ready. I will pack things we need and meet you out front after I let the students and other practitioners know I will be away until further notice. You should get yourself washed up in the springs behind the monastery and put on some clean clothes. It will be a fair bit of travel.” Faye listened to Wumong as he spoke then suddenly threw her arms around him in a hug.

"Thank you." She said before letting him go and doing as he said. She soon was flying out to spring to wash up and change into her clean clothing.

War? Lizzie wanted to question more about this war, yet it seemed like things were rather obvious to everyone else and didn’t wish to reveal the fact that she wasn’t from here. How long could she keep that a secret from them all? If she had to guess it wouldn’t last too long. At some point she would have to be open with them all if she wished to gain more information on things.

Her attention was once again caught by Helio as he responded with another smooth and rather flirty comment. She gave him a playful smirk before looking back to Tigerlily who had asked if she’d had all her belongings robbed. ”I suppose you could say that, in a sense, they were robbed from me.” She said in response with a shrug, wondering where the guards of the prison she’d been in had stored her things. They likely actually sold them for some coin as she had owned nice equipment. That thought made her a little angry, but it didn’t matter now.

After the brief encounter with Éliane she ran to catch up with the others. She watched the others buying things, glancing around as well before Tigerlily approached her with some clothes. She took the clothes from the woman, but narrowed her eyes a bit at her words. She needed to blend in? Lizzie felt like she didn’t look all that different from the woman who seemed to appear human like her. Lizzie was also already wearing clothing that was similar to a lot she’d already seen in this port town. Sure they were a little worse for wear thanks to the rats that nibbled on her and her clothes in the cell, but it wasn’t terrible. Though she wouldn’t deny these new clothes as she actually liked the appearance of them. ”I thank you for the clothes, however let me make something clear to you. If you are joining my crew you shall address me as Captain or Lizzie, not lass. Do I make myself clear, lass?” The woman likely didn’t mean any offense, however Lizzie wanted to make it clear to everyone that she would take her role as captain very seriously.

Everyone seemed to finish up their shopping, yet Lizzie found herself not needing to purchase anything. She would eventually like to acquire a hat, but for now she would survive. Perhaps she would find one on the ship. They met back up with Éliane and the woman seemed to get excited over the parrot, going as far as naming him herself even though it was purchased by Tigerlily. Truly Lizzie wasn’t fond of the bird yet, not understanding why someone would want an animal unless it served some purpose on the ship. She wasn’t one who liked to keep animals as pets. ”I didn’t find anything of interest and Tigerlily was kind enough to purchase me a new outfit.” She said in response to the woman as she continued on to the ship.

As the group boarded the ship there was an amazing smell coming from below decks. It made Lizzie’s stomach growl and she was wondering what was happening. Part of her wanted to go down and find out, but she had a matter to attend to first. She turned to her new crew, knowing Barboda wasn’t there currently but she could go over what she needed with him later. ”Before all of you go about exploring the ship I have some matters to discuss with you all. There shall be laws on my ship and if you don’t wish to follow them then you can head right back down that gangplank.” She started looking at all of them.

”First and foremost, every person a part of the crew has a vote in affairs of moment. You have equal title to the fresh provisions or strong liquors, at any time seized, and may use them at pleasure unless there are scarcity on the ship. Then it shall go to a vote on how much each person receives of these things.

Second, loot is to be divided out fairly amongst the crew with each crew mate receiving an equal share. If one is caught taking more than their share or stealing loot before it is divided then the punishment shall be marooning. One that is marooned shall be left with one bottle of water, their pistol if they own one with one shot, and their cutlass. If the crew feels the punishment may be too harsh at the time then it shall be put to a vote on how to deal with the offender. If the robbery is between two people then the one that is guilty shall have their ear or nose sliced unless the crew votes on a different punishment.”
She watched the reactions of each person as she continued.

”Third, one must keep their piece, pistols, and cutlass clean and fit for service. If one does not adhere to this law then they shall be cut off from their share and the crew shall vote on whether there should be further punishment.

Fourth, to desert the ship or quarters in battle is punishable by death or marooning, whichever the crew deems fit. If someone shall snap his arms, smoke within the hold without a cap to his pipe, or carry a lit candle without a lantern shall suffer 40 stripes to their bare back.

Lastly, there is no striking of one another on board unless it was unintentional while practicing swordplay. If a quarrel happens onboard, the punishment shall be 40 stripes on the bare back. If a quarrel is deemed to only be resolved with a fight then it shall happen on shore. Each of the parties shall be given a pistol with one shot and the first mate shall delegate the duel. They shall walk a determined amount of paces away from each other before turning and shooting. If both miss then the duel shall proceed with swords. The first to draw blood is the victor.

Are these laws clear to everyone here?”
She looked between each person, awaiting their answer before thinking of something else. ”How many of you have actually sailed a ship before? Not just been on board one, but worked one?”
