=== Timed events === {{TEheader}} {{TErow| 1 | Day 1| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: I have a strong feeling that this has already happened at some point. Marooned on an unknown island, once again. And once again, I am ship-less. [[Patris]] is not around, however... Anyway, the last thing I remember was me being sucked into the vortex when that [[Casmetra]] whore snatched the cursed Horn. That vile witch! Neither I, nor... Oh whatever it was that really interested her! The only thing she was after was the [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]]! Curses! Nobody escapes the wrath of [[Jeremy Albatross]]!<p>I also lost my high boot. Again.<p>Somewhere not far behind loitered a handful of lads that were sucked in with me. Were the rest less lucky, I wonder? I hope not. [[Bidley]] was left behind... "Hey rapscals!" I shouted to the flocked men. "We have to get out of here! But first, we need to find out where we are, shiver me timbers!"</p>}} {{TErow| 2 | Day 2| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}:Yet again I have a feeling that I relive past events, with an exception of me being on some shallow stinky island. My "[[Utopia]]" is probably far away from here. Quite frankly, I have a feeling that we are somewhere at [[kreegan’s horns]]. Even the air is different here... We have to find a settlement urgently to replenish the water supplies.<p>This is the merriest part of a sea wolf's life: a chance to die of dehydration while surrounded by water. But [[Jeremy Albatross]] knows better than to be afraid of such petty threats! I am more inclined to think that perils and difficulty forge pirate's character. Once a book with my biography comes out, it will depict my valor and chivalry as a pirate!</p>}} {{TErow| 7 | Red Res|freq=7|loc={{red}} (AI)|effect= +10000 {{Gold}} [[Gold]], +10 {{Wood}} [[Wood]], +10 {{Ore}} [[Ore]], +5 {{Mercury}} [[Mercury]], +5 {{Sulfur}} [[Sulfur]], +5 {{Crystal}} [[Crystal]], +5 {{Gem}} [[Gem (resource)|Gem]]}} {{TErow| 8 | Day 8| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}:A short, dark, cross-eyed man with thin, dark mustache was standing in front of me. I remembered that such tribes lived somewhere in [[Krewlod]] and led a nomadic life. I figured out that he was probably a leader here.<p>"Who are you?" I asked and squinted.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "Name is [[Timur]]." He answered.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "And who are you people? What are you doing here?"<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "No, who are you!" Exclaimed [[Timur]]. "We lived here peacefully, without trouble. You come, kill everyone, destroy fort!"<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "Answer the question!" I bellowed.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "We are refugees. I used to work on plantations." answered the local.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "What plantation?" I wondered.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "There is a big island to the north," answered my dark friend. "[[New Steadwick]] town is there."<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: Now I understood where I was, and it did not make me happy.<p>"[[New Steadwick]]!" I screamed with such anger that not only [[Timur]], but my own men cowered in fear, "[[New Steadwick]]! You mustache-face... Tell me it's a joke!" I grabbed him by the collar and put my sabre to his throat.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "I swear on blood and honor!" he wailed, sweating bullets. "It is called like that for real!"<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "Hear that, men?" I let poor [[Timur]] go and turned to my crew while gesturing, "Sink me! You do realize where we are?!"</p>}} {{TErow| 9 | Day 9| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: Very far away, east of [[Erathia]], there is an archipelago amongst endless sea. We, pirates, call in the [[Gilbert's isles]]. [[Erathia]]ns call it [[Klondike]]. Some time ago, during [[Erathia]]'s prime, they established a fort on the largest isle, that grew into a settlement and later, a full colony.<p>A soft climate allows growing tobacco, coffee, sugarcane, local exotic fruits and vegetables. Before, the latter was available only in [[Tatalia]]. After the death of [[King Nicolas Gryphonheart|Gryphonheart]], the bond with the metroplex was broken, and the local vice-king feels confident as a ruler of the archipelago. The local pirates challenged him for the control over land, and a war broke out.<p>However, all of this is not as important... The important part is that these isles are located terribly far away from the continent! And I have not a single clue where [[Bidley]] is and where to set sail.</p>}} {{TErow| 12 | Day 12| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: When we were little, momma used to tell us a tale about the [[Guiding Star]]. What’s funny, I used to hear the same tale from pirates and devil knows who else.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "[[Jeremy]]-kan?" A voice rang behind me.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "What?" I turned to [[Timur]]. He became a sort of a guide here when he realized that I'm in charge now.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "I don’t want to ask. But why did you set sail to these lands? You fight like a real steppe son. You are a warrior."<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "Wa-a-arrior..." I bleated. "I sailed here to sail away. But I don't know where to go, to the extent where I'd need a [[Guiding Star]]."<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "Oh, I'd like to sail away too." Smiled [[Timur]]. "Light the star and sail wherever the heart desires!"<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "Curses. Don't make my life even more miserable." I ruffled up and turned back to the sea.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "But [[Jeremy]]-kan! I know how to light it!"</p>}} {{TErow| 14 | Day 14| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: I was delightfully enjoying the local mash while sinking into my own thoughts. The mash was made from sugarcane. I wouldn't say that it's amazing, but that will do. Suddenly, [[Timur]] entered the cabin, followed by... A thing. Something. If this pile of something knows how to get out of here, I am all ears. Otherwise, I'd shoot it on sight, just in case.<p>It was a man dressed in some insane robes with feathers and a hat that looked like a bird's head. Dark skin, a large nose, and round, expressionless eyes were seen under the hat.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "This is [[Crang-Crang]]." Timur introduced the stranger.<p>'''[[Crang-Crang]]:''' "[[Crang-Crang]]." Repeated the strange fellow for no reason.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "I got it." I replied angrily. "At least not [[Abrrgh|Arbgrh]]. How can we see the [[Guiding Star]]?"<p>'''[[Crang-Crang]]:''' "[[Grail]]," said the shaman.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "[[Grail]]?" I clarified.<p>'''[[Crang-Crang]]:''' "[[Grail]]. Bring [[Crang-Crang]] [[Grail]]. Light Star! Shine!"<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: I pulled [[Timur]] by a shoulder to the side.<p>"What the hell is this? I am utmost surprised it can talk at all.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' “[[Jeremy]]-kan, this is the priest of the people here. Very Wise! Has some difficulty talking though, yes."<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "Shiver me timbers! Did he seriously mention [[Grail]]?" I sighed.<p>'''[[Timur]]:''' "Yes. We can probably find it if we look at the obelisks. My people told legends that the obelisks depict a map that shows where the [[Grail]] is buried." The nomad replied.<p>"Fine. Take your friend out before everything here absorbs his stench... I'll think about what to do."</p>}} {{TErow| 18 | Day 18| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: I have no idea what the "[[Grail]]" is. I don't like to think about strange and irrelevant issues. It's much nicer to think about gold, rum, and women. The fate commands otherwise, however!<p>And so, the Grail. I heard that those things once fell from Heavens. Nobody really knows what are those, and how many of them exist. But everyone wants one. Well, if [[Timur]] is right and the obelisks truly reveal the map, why not search for this [[Grail]]? I am ready to sell my last high boot to get out of here and find [[Bidley]]. Momma would never forgive if I failed to look after my dear brother.</p>}} {{TErow| 24 | Day 24| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: Looks like I began to remember the stories [[Patris]] told me about this place... Curses! He was from here, wasn't he? He escaped when their guerrilla squad was captured and his family imprisoned. Such a pity that [[Patris]] is not with me anymore. He would probably have some errands to attend to.}} {{TErow| 30 | Day 30| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: Looks like the local pirates and vice-king got to know about our presence. They clearly dislike the fact that [[Jeremy Albatross]] disrupts their plans. Good! I love being feared. Our little fortress is being attacked more and more frequently by those who desire to deal with pirates and colonists.<p>The only thing that truly scares me is that our enemies may find [[Grail]] before us.</p>}} {{TErow| 35 | Day 35| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: [[Timur]]'s men report that a vast cave net is located under the isles. Both monsters and intelligent beings dwell there. I don't have my hopes high about those "intelligent" beings far surpassing our regular "[[Abrrgh|arrrbghs]]", however. Should we search for Grail there?}} {{TErow| 35 | Day 35| {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}:Alarming news have reached me that the caves are inhabited by demons, and not only [[Tuunbaq]]. During the [[First War]], the [[Kreegan]]s have sent and expedition here. However, [[Catherine]] was able to defeat [[Eeofol]] and [[Nighon]] before the expedition arrived. The alliance with [[Eeofol]] was broken, and the [[Kreegan]]s were left abandoned in these caves. I doubt that they got any nicer over the time.<p>Because, you know, you cannot land devil knows where, lose a high boot and not meet [[Kreegan]]s.</p>}} |}
