== Scenario == === Timed events === {{TEheader}} {{TErow| 1 | Day 1 | Everything happened so quickly. Water bubbled up like a massive geyser on the surface of the sea, spitting out a magical ship. [[Casmetra]] said that [[Bidley]] was on that ship, but that someone else was with him and had captured both my brother and the Horn.<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “It's [[Dargem]],” said priestess angrily.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “Who's [[Dargem]]?”<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “A mercenary [[mage]]. Worked for [[Regna]]--or, to be precise, for one of [[Regna]]'s lords. It's a nest of vipers there, everyone trying to figure out how to stab everyone else in the back. One of those lords wanted to get his hands on the [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]], and his desire was stronger than yours. So he sent [[Dargem]].”<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “Blasted...we have to chase them down, immediately! [[Diego]], prepare the ships!” I ordered.<p>We chased [[Dargem]] awhile, but eventually he disappeared behind an island. Instead, we were met by [[Regna]]'s fleet. We had only a handful of ships, so we had to flee. We set up a camp on a small island and decided to gather forces for a strike on [[Dargem]]'s fortress, where he is holding the Horn and my brother. I hope [[Bidley]] is safe.<p>However, we have some good news: [[Tark]] has returned! He emerged from the water with his kin right in front of our camp.<p>{{Hn|Tark|0=}}: “I promised to return,” hissed the giant reptile leader laconically.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “We have trouble. [[Bidley]] was captured,” I explained.<p>{{Hn|Tark|0=}}: “We [[nix]] will fight for you. Some will be against you, however. But I am the prince, and truth is with me,” replied [[Tark]].</p>}} {{TErow| 2 | Day 2 | {{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “[[Jeremy]],” smiled [[Casmetra]]. “I have some more good news. The theft of the Horn awakened the [[sea serpent]]s. Now they are wandering the ocean.”<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “That's great news--at least we'll have plenty of fried eel, I guess.”<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “Silly,” [[Casmetra]] replied. “These creatures still feel they have to protect the [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]]. But the poor stupid things can't figure out whether it has to be returned, or guarded wherever it is. I can enchant them so that the serpents who want to return the Horn will help us fight to get it back from that traitor [[Dargem]].”<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “That's a good idea,” I agreed. “But what will we tell them once we get the Horn from [[Dargem]]? ‘Move along, we were just joking?'”<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “You men always try to think 20 steps ahead,” [[Casmetra]] said, rolling her eyes.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: But for all that, I certainly wasn't going to turn down an offer of assistance from the [[sea serpent]]s. Just one of those beautiful creatures could sink a frigate!</p>}} {{TErow| 7 | Day 7 | {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: Scouts report that the [[Tatalia]]ns, angered by their recent defeat, are hoping to get their entire fleet wiped out yet again. They found us on this archipelago, which was previously known only to [[pirate]]s. They've raised a fort somewhere to the east, and are preparing for an invasion. On the one hand, this could be great; they're not likely to be able to tell the difference between two pirate bands. On the other hand, it will be terrible if they, and not us, capture [[Dargem]]. If that happens, [[Bidley]] will surely hang on a rope right beside [[Dargem]].}} {{TErow| 12 | Day 12 | {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: More troubling news: war has broken out again between [[Erathia]] and [[Eeofol]]. Also, strange cities with golden-domed castles have begun appearing out of thin air all across the continent. [[Casmetra]] thinks it is an invasion by [[elemental lords]]. One of these cities appeared in the northern region of the archipelago. They've probably been attracted by the power of the [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]] and hope to acquire it.}} {{TErow| 14 | Raider | freq=14 | loc={{teal}}| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: [[Dargem]]'s raiders attacked our supply ships and vanished into the night.|effect= -1500 {{Gold}} [[Gold]], -5 {{Wood}} [[Wood]], -5 {{Ore}} [[Ore]]}} {{TErow| 24 | Day 24 | {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: I got tired of this pointless resistance and decided to write [[Dargem]] a letter. My mind wasn't perfectly clear at the time; invigorated by rum, I wrote the following:<p>“Dargem! This is [[Jeremy Albatross]], [[captain]] of [[Regna]]'s armada. You have crossed my path and captured my brother. Set him free immediately, and give us the artifact! If you do, I promise that you and your men will be allowed to leave the island unharmed.”</p>}} {{TErow| 28 | halyava | freq=28 |loc=(AI)|-It's halyava time!<p>- No, AI, no!!!|effect= +5000 {{Gold}} [[Gold]], +10 {{Wood}} [[Wood]], +10 {{Ore}} [[Ore]], +5 {{Mercury}} [[Mercury]], +5 {{Sulfur}} [[Sulfur]], +5 {{Crystal}} [[Crystal]], +5 {{Gem}} [[Gem]]}} {{TErow| 34 | Day 34 | {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: [[Tark]]'s [[nix]] report that there is a massive network of caves under this archipelago. Many of them are filled with water, but some parts are dry. The caves are ancient; something unique and powerful might be found inside.}} {{TErow| 40 | Day 40 | {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: [[Dargem]] took his time in writing me back. I imagine that is just one more demonstration of his stupidity and inability to think critically. His letter went as follows:<p>“The so-called [[Jeremy]] the Grouse! I spent far too long in those caves waiting for fortune to smile on me and send me a traveler even less fortunate than myself. And so it happened. I deserve the Horn--though I haven't figured out how it works yet. I suggest you get lost. Your brother is merely a guarantee of my security. As soon as you are gone, he shall be freed. [[Dargem]]”</p>}} {{TErow| 43 | Day 43 | {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: I've been thinking about what [[Dargem]] said. I called [[Casmetra]] in my cabin and told her that I was thinking about retreating, to ensure [[Bidley]]'s safe release. The priestess's eyes widened.<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “[[Jeremy]]! How could you even say something like that!” she exclaimed.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “But we could save [[Bidley]], and avoid unnecessary bloodshed,” I began, when [[Casmetra]] interrupted me.<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “You can't even imagine what a villain [[Dargem]] is, and what is at stake here. The [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]] is one of the greatest artifacts ever created. There's no record of who made it--it was probably created before the [[Silence]]. It is a gift from the [[age of wonders]]! If only we can figure out how it works, we will be like gods!” the priestess explained with excitement. She stepped up to the table and, to my amusement, took a sip of my rum. “[[Dargem]] is a scoundrel and a villain. The only reason he hasn't already killed [[Bidley]] is that we're close by. If you leave, he'll have your brother murdered and fed to the sharks. You should realize that. Unless you're a coward?” she asked with reproach in her eyes.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “No, milady. [[Jeremy Albatross]] is the bravest and boldest of all the [[pirate]]s between [[Enroth (continent)|Enroth]], [[Erathia]] and [[Jadame]]!” I declared, jumping to my feet.<p>{{Hn|Casmetra|0=}}: “And that's why I love you,” laughed the priestess, embracing me.</p>}} |} === Objects === ==== Events ==== {| class="sortable wikitable" cellpadding=5px !
