The next three weeks pass in a boring tedious fashion. You're starting to learn that the life of a pirate is little more than waiting for a ship. However, there were a few interesting changes within the crew since the incident at The Sheath.
Vicnan saw the least of it. Despite a few inquiries by one of the monks about Vicnan's master there wasn't much change as the Halfling merely sat inside his cabin most days.
Eileen and Ylva, on the other hand, started becoming decent friends with the monks aboard the ship. They would discuss with her the applications of various medicinal herbs and she, in turn, would tell them about her own tricks. Once or twice they attempted to pet Ylva but that never went well with the wolf nipping at their hands.
Lora was much like Vicnan so far as socializing. However, her prowess with two rapiers was noted around the ship and she was often sought out for pointers. A lot of the crew also took stabs at romancing her. She was happy to give points and stabs to both pursuits and soon the crew learned to avoid harassing her if she didn't wish for it to be the case.
Kyle was soon adopted as something of a mascot though. Thanks to his tall tales the group was viewed as heroes aboard the ship. His assistance also made him very much enjoyed because he lightened the load.
Jernak, however, became the most popular by far. Not so much for anything in particular but rather what he had done. No one likes hard work. The man's willingness to accept any task asked of him caused him to be much sought out. Almost everyone on the boat owed him a favor or two by the time the three weeks had passed.
But it was Brother Isotini and Captain Grey who caused the most waves around the ship. The two brothers could often be heard arguing about bringing something or another to the Grand Navy. Surprisingly it was Captain Grey who insisted that the Navy needed to be warned [so far as you could gather] while Brother Isotini was too worried about Captain Grey's safety to allow that course of action.
It was on a drizzly Thursday that Captain Grey announced that the crew would be heading towards The Fist next. None of you really knew much about the Fist aside from it's warrior origins. Never-the-less the crew seemed incredibly bored and unhappy with the lack of combat on this journey. Captain Grey was often known for his aggressive piracy and the fact that in a month and a half of travel only one boat had been attacked was a sore spot for the crew.
The very next day Captain Grey summoned the lot of you to his quarters. The man he sent to collect you urged you that the incident was urgent.
