An expedition with the "Seagull"

[Breila]

"I don't know what took the people of Dunreese. But I might have seen someone else who was caught" Henry answers.

[Robbo]

Gunter raises an eyebrow.

"Really? What happened?"

[Breila]

"No, no, I didn't see the capturing" Henry says hastily. "Come down with me, I will show you what I mean"

He leads the group further down, until they get a clear view of the next bay. Quite far out, near the opposite shore, are a number of flat-topped rocks. On one of them, a humanlike figure can be seen. The one thing that makes it certain, even from this distance, that the figure is not human is the fact that the figure's long hair is bright green.

[Robbo]

Gunter scratches his beard and flashes an incredulous look at Amon.

"So, what does a sunbathing person with some hair dye have to do with your kidnapped neighbors?"

[Jenara]

"Well that figure isn't human, of that I am certain." Brax comments, staying near the back.

[JadedDM]

"We should be cautious," Amon says. "It may not be dye. I've read about creatures with green hair before--fey who can cloud a man's mind with a word or even blind them with their beauty: Dryads, nymphs and sirines, to name a few."

Echo arches a brow. "And how do you know so much about such things?" she asks.

"What? I...I just read a lot, that's all," Amon says, blushing slightly as he remembers the erotic book 'Nymphs and Pixies' that he took from Sanbalet's room.

"Am I the only one who remembers the last time we trusted someone who told us they were harmless? And now we're trusting this guy when there is someone kidnapping people or maybe clouding minds? I mean, really? Shouldn't we learn from this?"

Searos unsheathes his sword. "Can we just gut the kid and move on? He's going to turn on us, you know."

[JadedDM]

"We were told to find Henry and the others, not harm them, Master Searos," Amon points out. "The people of Dunreese will not be very grateful toward us if we slaughter the very people we were sent to help."

[The_Muffin_Man]

"I'll be pretty grateful when we don't end up in someone's cage again or with our hands tied."

[Jenara]

"Me also Master Searos, although to be fair, he doesn't look like much of a Threat now does he?" Brax puts her hand on the Thief's sword arm. "Calm your twitchy Blade Master Searos." She says keeping her postion, waiting for Amon to do the talking.

[Breila]

Henry had backed off into the cliff recess when Searos drew his sword, he is not visible now.

The tide is out at the moment, so it might possible that if the party progresses to the cliff base, they could reach the rock on which the green-haired figure sits by wading through the tide pools.

[JadedDM]

"Come, let us move on and find out who this mystery person is, and whether they are a threat," Amon says. "Worry not, Henry. No harm will come to you, I will see to that."

[LittleLuna]

"I've seen some of these... how did you name it? ...Sirens at home. Our name for them could be translated as 'Carnivorous Flower' cause she looks like a flower and eats young men"
Trough her cruel words Vee don't seem much worried and walks on without hesitation

[Jenara]

"Henry?" Brax asks, not following the others, instead she looks into the cave, her elven sight adjusting to the darkness. "Forgive Master Searos, he is just jumpy."

She keeps her hands visible, moving and speaking slowly.

[The_Muffin_Man]

Searos puts the sword away. "When we get captured or enslaved or killed I am holding you all responsible. And I'm not jumpy. I am learning from our past mistakes. Like not trusting people who look harmless when we are dealing with slavers, smugglers and murderers."
