Scribe Notes

Guild Day

Cliff note version, will be expanded further. Party meets up at the guild meeting with Aqualina, she talks a lot and the story gets worse & worse and worse the more she talks. Soon it's a story about how Shrivers & Demons & Horrors from beyond the known realms are ravaging Pasifika and we are expected to go into the middle of this in order to rescue some senior high nobles who shouldn't be going anywhere without armies to keep them safe. We ask for more money as the initial offering won't even cover the cost of Greaters for an adventure this dangerous.
Transport is discussed, Aqualina seems to think walking 700 miles inland is a good idea, we make plans to buy a Caraval and crew it with the party. An order is made, party goes drinking and some make far more of a spectacle of this than there should be.

2nd Frost

A few suffer from hang overs, the correct goblin way, we inspect a Caravel currently laid up in dry dock, I suspect the owners hoped a guild member would buy it, it has a suspicious name of 'The Squall Eater' and allegedly several other interested parties. We rename it 'The Sand Tiger' in the language of the Five Sisters. We start discussing cargo for it.

3rd Frost

We buy suitable cargo from the markets, focusing mainly on wool, cloth & alcohol, along with some valuable but light items like local herbs which always sell well. We get some locals to help load it over the day and next day.

5th Frost

We leave harbour, the Harbour Master is apparently under pressure from the Duke as they demand an accounting of our plans, so we tell them we are heading to Freetown. We head West.

8th Frost

Clear the Kingdom of Flugelheim to our North and head out into the true open sea. The party have all found their sea legs, even magical help doesn't do it in a single hour.

10th Frost

Sail spotted to the West, identified as a Destinian ship, moving at clearly magical speeds also, I believe we have the edge on them in pace but not significantly. Neither of us attempt to close with the other and we pass at about a miles distance.

12th Frost

Measurements indicate we are at the right place to turn south, the Elven Isles are visible to the SE by the clouds above them.

14th Frost

We pass through a storm. Sufficient to endanger a ship without a water or air mage, but of little consequence given we can ignore the natural wind and calm the waves.

15th Frost

We enter the Pasifika region, noticeable easily by the sudden slowing of the Mage Current, thankfully the Caravel itself still has a good speed allowing us to make swift passage regardless. We travel down the East Coast of Rangiwhero.

16th Frost

We reach anchor at the Pasifikan Trading post near evening. Sufficient time is available to meet with Aqualina & Princess Ariel of the Merfolk, as well as see about hiring a few local crew to be lead by Aqualina's brother to keep the ship safe when we depart from it to investigate points of interest.
