[Flying Dice]

"Like a log," he winked back, grinning, "Though I'm sore hurt to hear that it troubled you, lass."

[Sirus]

"Aye, lass, it's got a friendlier cast to it."

Sail on for a closer look.

Ness snores on.

Finding a nice spot to land the boat, you all make good time to the island and arrive well before midday.

-- On the Island --

The island is rather peaceful, and is smaller than the other one. The beach is plain white sand, with the usual shells and rocks scattered here and there. The gently sloped hill, lightly forested, appears to have a small stone building atop it.

[Nerjin]

Sacha scratched her left arm somewhat vigorously for a few moments. She had been feeling quite itchy since they had left the ruins last night. She assumed some form of plant. "You know... I don't hate this island. It's actually somewhat nice to be somewhere that isn't a terrible city or a terrible dwarven fortress or a terrible fishing village. Just a decent group of people, a sea, nice hill, a dumb witch, and an elf. I think I actually like it here."

[Flying Dice]

"Aye, Sacha. I think... were I a great many summers older, I think I could settle here. But for now..." Beolas grins, trotting off in the direction of the building on the hill, "Lighten your steps, there's places to see!"

[Sirus]

"Assuming this place doesn't hide some horrible secret that will kill us, I will have to remember this island. Might be worth retiring to once we map the ocean properly."

Head towards the building.

[Rolepgeek]

"What do you guys think'll be inside?"

[Nerjin]

"With our luck? Something that doesn't understand six on one odds."

[Dwarmin]

Relic knew good scenery could hide danger, but she felt fairly relaxed here-had even gathered some seashells for her collection.

"I wonder who lives in that building, though? Even if they're friendly, they might be a bit afraid when a large group of armed persons charges onto their island.

I think I should scout ahead-if there is any people living here, it might be easier to explain we're friendly with just one of us. If there's danger, it's best if we're warned."

She handed a rattling leather sack to Sacha.

"Hold my seashells for me, Sacha?" she says sweetly.

Action: Idly gather pretty seashells and tag along with the group.

Also, Scout the building before we all get close for any signs of danger/inhabitants.

[Nerjin]

"Of course Relic. I'd love to." Sacha replied taking the shells.

[Sirus]

Darwyn lowered his voice as Relic ran off.

"You agreed to that awfully quickly. What sort of mischief are you planning, Sacha?"

[Nerjin]

"Mischief? I plan none. But if she wants to go harass whomever lives in that house instead of one of us doing it; holding some shells is a small price to pay. Especially if she gets stabbed in the process" opening the sack Sacha began examining the contents.

A blue crab crawls out of the sack and snips Sacha on the finger.

Relic heads out in front of everybody to check out the building. The building itself, all of you note, is rather small, perhaps the size of your home back on the islands, but is shaped like a tiny castle, with fortifications on top and sturdy-looking, metal-reinforced doors.

Spoiler: Relic (click to show/hide)

The building seems to be in some state of disrepair from the outside. Looking through a window, you see that inside, there are empty braziers along the walls, a ladder to the roof, a pile of rusty weapons in a corner, a forbidding trapdoor in the middle, something that looks suspiciously like a bone, and a chipped window.

The rest of you arrive near the top of the hill about fifteen minutes after you start going up the hill. None of you can see inside of the building, but Relic has just finished looking in through the window.
