Rising Sun: Issue 5

The Memory of Haakon

13

The Pirates recuperate for a brief spell, nursing wounds gained in the recent clash of arms. A swift vote decides the new name of this captured ship should be the 'Victor's Spoils.' You for one are contemplating the sudden loss of both of your traveling companions. Your voyage will be much harder due to their loss. Your thoughts are interrupted by a screaming voice directed at your face.

Looking up you notice fury filled Captain Mosk's face. 'You betrayed us you double slime sucking scum eater! There is no way they could have known our route or our location unless you or one of your lackey's betrayed it to those foul Sommlending. What is this game you play you masked creature of darkness? Your games are over. I don't care what you think you are worth- no one betrays MY ship and gets away with it. That was no random patrol that chanced upon us. That was a planned and coordinated attack meant to destroy me and my crew.'

Before you can protest the captain has drawn his weapon and is holding the tip to your neck. Only seconds remain for you to decide your next course of action.

If you draw your weapon and strike back at the captain, turn to 19.

If you decide to stare at him steadily and see what transpires next, turn to 25
