It’s always fun until someone gets hurt…

Our party is continuing their journey towards Astroid Magicanum, the drop off location for Lotus, the daughter of Pandora and The Lady of the Woods. They are nearing Kraken Harbour when Flux and Voya notice a kraken-like creature fall limp in an unusual manner a short way into the fog that is nearing the ship. After the massive body hits the water, they see a number of skeleton-like creatures pop their heads out of the bloody and ink-filled water surrounding the ship. An ethereal glow comes from out of their skulls.

Most of the crew get too distracted by their romantic desires to be present on duty, so no one was there to raise the alarm. Flux runs to get the other party members, finding only Uthgor under a pile of sweaty bodies, and Skye (who reluctantly steps out of the bathtub and away from Lotus, who remains motionless and confused). Nyx gets trapped under a very eager Griselda, who is not interested in relinquishing her sexual power quite yet, and it takes some time for them to join the fight.

At this time, Voya is shooting magic through the fog, effortlessly knocking the skeletons back into their watery graves. Skye and Uthgor show topside and prepare to fight, shamelessly naked. A short time after Flux and Nyx also show topside, with Nyx bearing only a t-shirt and their wand. The skeletons begin making their way towards the ship as Griselda joins the party. She is slightly insulted that the fun started without her. The party requests that Griselda go and retrieve that captain and the crew of this vessel, and she reluctantly does so.

The party fights cohesively to destroy nearly a half dozen foes before the captain arrives. Uthgor slices through a skeletal warrior, Voya twists a skeletal captain’s head like a corkscrew, and Skye and Flux shoot down the skeletal warriors with precision known only to trained assassins.

Griselda returns with her bear, and the crew of the ship. The Captain, almost embarrassed, starts barking orders at the crew, who run around madly to assist how they can. However, they don’t do much.

The party extinguishes the remaining skeletons with little effort, and with hardly a blink, return to their romantic interests (with the exception of Voya and Flux, who remain nervously at the bow of the ship). Skye returns to her room fully ready to apologize when she discovers a fully nude Lotus in her original form beckoning Skye to join her in her bed. Griselda essentially drags Nyx back to their room to get back to the kinky stuff. Uthgor cleans himself to prepare to rejoin the messy pile of bodies. The crew do not return to their previous activities. They, instead, go to the bar to mourn the loss of their fellow crew member.

The captain remains the only crew member topside, as the others return below. The captain stares blankly into the fog, silent and enraged.
