Posts from Sylvester Archipelago

Gordian leisurely made his way onto the ship and learned that one sailor was missing. "He died like a pig," Bruttius remarked with little regret and headed to his cabin.

You're all so heartless.

I had this bio from the beginning.
Just skipping it.

"What can you do," Sarrael said as he returned to his cabin.

Sarrael barely knew the deceased, and therefore felt no regret or pity for him; however, he didn't condemn him either: in the dark elf's view, everyone was free to do as they pleased, and in the end, the young man died doing something he enjoyed.

Before setting sail, the crew was joined by another person. Lutiel returned to the ship with a woman. Later, it became known that her name was Gudrin, and she was from the north.

The Sylvestrian archipelago stretches for almost five thousand kilometers from west to east, and two and a half thousand from north to south. Countless large and small islands hide many secrets and mysteries of the past. Once they were home to the Khalehid, now they are home to underdeveloped tribes of humans, high elves, wild animals, and all sorts of hermits who decided to leave civilization forever. Among the peoples of the mainland, legends circulate that the islands are cursed. By whom, when, and why, no one specifies. But many believe that if you set foot on the land of one of the islands, you will never return home...

- Faster, grandpa, we're late, - said the woman, covered from head to toe in incomprehensible patterns.
- I'm only half a century younger than you, - replied the panting old man.
- And you look like you're a whole century older, - said the orc, who was walking next to the woman.
- It's just that she looks too young, and I look my age. What about Lutiel? Didn't he hire some people?
- He did, - replied the orc. - But there are few of them, and they may not be able to cope. And they were hired to create a distraction. Why am I even telling you this, you know everything anyway, - the orc said discontentedly.
- I know, - the old man chuckled. - I just like it when someone else expresses my thoughts! By the way, I don't think this is the right decision. You, as usual, will make a lot of noise, and then the shadows and manipulators will have to cover your tracks.
- This time, it's impossible to avoid noise. Considering what awaits us there, - the orc noted.
- I'm not sure that everything is so terrible, but just in case, I prepared some thread to sew your head back on, - said the old man with a smile.
- Just watch that you don't have to put me back together piece by piece.


[Sarael tolerates sailing well
Werner suffers from seasickness: -2 to all characteristics (temporarily)
Rayvelin Windwater uses one seasickness remedy
Gordian Bruttius uses one seasickness remedy
Tiberius Flavius uses one seasickness remedy
Tanasios Argyrius uses one seasickness remedy
Odd Bergstrom uses one seasickness remedy]

The mercenaries didn't even notice that the ship had changed course and was sailing not to the shores of Histia, but somewhere south of it. Soon they reached a large island. Lutiel gathered them on the deck and announced:
- As you may have noticed, we are not in Histia. I have a meeting scheduled on this island. Unfortunately, we arrived a little early and will have to wait. The island is uninhabited. Those who wish can disembark with me on the shore and admire the beautiful, pristine landscapes.

“Good idea,” Werner said, following the captain as they disembarked.

Gordian Brutti tried to consult the map during the voyage. Of course, it was terrible, and the helmsman couldn't exactly call himself an experienced navigator. But he believed that whatever a person does, they should have some idea of what's happening around them. In general, he probably had at least a minimal understanding that they were heading in the wrong direction. The captain's comment on this didn't fully satisfy him, but it was still better than silence. Gordian shook his head unhappily. "Dark elf trickery." Aloud, he said: "Does the uninhabited nature of the island mean complete safety, or not? In this case."

-- Good idea, -- Werner said, following the captain as they stepped onto the shore.

Wait, Alex, there's no pier, so no one has landed yet.

-- Does the island's uninhabited state mean it's completely safe, or not? In this case.

- Safety? Life itself isn't safe, - said Lutiel. - But if we consider the presence of intelligent beings on the island as a danger, then in this case, the island is safe. At least if you don't go too far into the thickets.

During the voyage, Tanasia had little to do besides keeping a diary. But even this became problematic for the warrior, as nothing of particular interest had happened on the ship since Arkyll's death. So, Argyrios seized the opportunity to finally breathe fresh air and admire the scenery. Perhaps this island wasn't as beautiful as his native Histia, but it was certainly a welcome change from the rather tiresome ship.

So, is it Haliel or Lutiel? Or are there two of them? I'm confused.

Haliel, disguised as Lutiel, hired us to create a distraction – what's not to understand?

Exposed by Haliel!

Oh, haha!)

Actually, these are different characters. I just rushed. No joke.

These dark elves, they look so much alike...

So, the following disembark on the shore: Werner, Tanasios, and...

The most interesting thing is that I caught myself several times writing Heliel instead of Lutiel, but each time I noticed and corrected it.

Ravelin was a little surprised by the change of course, but he decided that a short walk around the island wouldn't hurt.

Kyk decided that he definitely needed some fresh air. However, he was afraid of snakes, just like most people from the North. And he didn't bring any antidote with him. Overall, it seemed like a bad idea, but he had already made up his mind. That's just his personality. And curses are just scary stories for children.
— I'll have time to meet Gudrin later, — Odd thought, — Hey, boss, I'll join you too!

there are few of them, and they might not be able to handle it

we'll manage, for sure
