Sealegs 2: The Iron Bitch
To the thrill of her crew and the shock of most onlookers, the maiden voyage of the maelstrom's experimental vessel The Iron Bitch was completed without any onboard fires, engine failures or other embarrassing disasters. Indeed her day long cruise from Limsa Lominsa to the port of Vesper Bay would have been entirely uneventful if not for an unexpected encounter off the Southern Thanalan coast.
Approximately two bells past high noon, the crew of the Bitch sighted a distress flare from beyond a small island and shortly after found a small brig belonging to the Immortal Flames giving chase to The Gold Coblyn, an armed galley belonging to the Fufuluta Molasses Concern. After hailing the brig, they received news that one of the concern's ships had recently been captured by pirates, with her entire cargo of indentured workers taken. News of this attack had spurred the poor souls aboard the Coblyn to take their own action. After escaping their holding cells, the workers had staged a mutiny, and taken full control of the Coblyn, despite the best efforts of the brig charged to escort her.
Responding to the Flame's earnest pleas for help, the Iron Bitch pursued the Golden Coblyn and quickly pulled into hailing range. Sukoa, a passenger aboard the Bitch and a skilled diplomat, hailed the mutineers, offering to provide social aid and a fair trial if they stood down immediately. Although they initially considered his offer, the beleaguered Ala Mihgans aboard succumbed to the lure of freedom, which lay so near their grasp, and fired upon the Iron Bitch.
Their resistance was destined to be short lived and bloody, as the adventurer's aboard the Iron Bitch cut through the mutineers like fresh butter. After a single broadside of explosive shells, the coblyn was boarded and retaken with great efficiency. However Captain Annstarra and her crew were horrified to discover the slave-like conditions in which the Fufuluta Molasses concern had been holding it's indentured servants.Â
Upon rendezvousing with the Immortal Flames, the adventurers learned that the Gold Coblyn's crew had not actually been massacred in the initial mutiny. Many had surrendered and been placed in lifeboats, which were now safely aboard the Immortal Flame's ship. These survivors were now restored to their vessel amid congratulations and heartfelt thanks to the Iron Bitch and her associates.
However their jubilation remained heavily tainted by the concern's maltreatment of it's servents. Captain Annstara, with the support of adventurers Jana Ridah and Virara Vira, insisted upon a full investigation and an agreement was signed, obligating the Fufuluta Molasses Co. to hold the mutineers on their island Paradise Cove, until further investigations and negotiations could be completed by Captain Annstarra and her crew.
Boosts
Annstara, Jana, and Virara: 1x /Immortal Flame's Letter of Thanks/
~The Immortal Flame's Navy may be underfunded, undermanned and under respected, but you have earned their unreserved gratitude. This letter can be used for social rolls or favours from the Immortal Flames.
Sukoa: 1x /Ala Mihgan Insight/
~Although Sukoa refrained from speaking to the Immortal Flames or taking any credit for the victory, his efforts to reach the desperate mutineers have granted him valuable insight. This boost can be used for social rolls involving other Ala Mighan refugees.
Storyline Aspects
If this is your first event in Dead God's Chest, you will gain this aspect and may use it for the duration of the storyline. If you already have a story aspect, you must choose to keep it or exchange it for the new one.
Annstara [Sworn Enemy of a Molasses Empire] -Disgusted and infuriated by the conditions aboard the Gold Coblyn, Annstara intends to take down the monetarist scheme brick by brick.
Jana [Rumors of a Mysterious Quarry]Â - For self-proclaimed pirate hunter Jana Ridah, hunting Limsian miscreants has grown rather boring, but talk of the mysterious Nortyrliht that made off with an entire ship and vanished again has caught her attention.
Virara [Stirrings of Compassion] - The very meaning of compassion or empathy is foreign, particularly for those weaker than herself. However something about the lightless belly of the ship has stirred deep memories and created a bond between Virara and the doomed mutineers.
Sukoa [Diplomacy of a Different Land] - Devastated and horrified by his failure to gain the Ala Mihgan's trust, Sukoa has poured himself into deep research of Eorzea people and their values, in the hope that there will never be a second time.
I apologize for the long wait after this event. Real Life was very busy over the last two weeks. The next chapter will be scheduled very soon.
