Eventually the ship is done, and the new name is emblazoned across the prow "The Wicked Wench" and she's a fine looking ship. So with a new christening you load into the newly designed ship and wave your good byes from the prow to the folks of Rickey Squibs.

The Wicked Wench
The week passes as the ship is finished being squibbed. A few things transpire over the week. Six new crewmen are hired on, including the islands Nine Pine Champion. After a short tournament where Xie enters into the mix Tall John decides he's had enough here and needs to challenge himself, and with players like Xie out there he figures it will give sailing with you a shot. Xie's performance in the Nine Pins event is good, he takes home second place, and a small purse of gold coins to boot. Your mermaid doesn't spend much time among the crew, she's busy entertaining the folks at Rickey's or is found swimming in the bay, she's restless, a desire to be on your way to search for her sister nags at her. Still there is nothing to do but wait.

Happy to have made new friends and a bit of coin on the side, Xie returns to the vessel with John alongside, he welcomes the new crew member and makes introductions with the rest of the crew.

Rod calls in a meeting of all the officers. "Well, we have a good ship now, so what do we do. I picked up a rumor about a crystal dodo. Does anyone know more of this? Where should we start? Or do you have any better plans? Where could we ask for information to find Meri's sister?"

"If it's information you crave, there is no better source in the Shackles than the House of Stolen Kisses in Quent," Seroneth suggests. "Information is bought and sold there behind the guise of a Calistrian temple."

"How could we possibly pass up a grand masquerade in Port Peril?" Flavinia's response is of the predictable sort, fancying herself in the prized gown.

"So should we travel to Port Peril first or take your lead to Quent? Hmmm." Rod ponders.

"I am fine with either order," Seroneth answers serenely. "But neither is exactly on the way to the other. We must sail west and north along the mainland, and then choose either east to Port Peril or west to Quent. I will say I believe both destinations will be fruitful, and recommend visiting both."

Rosie pulls up a seat, "If you ask me, and you bloody well did, I say its time we make a real name for ourselves. Everyone knows the best way to do that is to gain official recognition as Free Captains of the Shackles! Shit yeah, righto?" She stands up and paces around the cabin, We have to haul our arses to Port Peril and demand from the Hurricane King Kerdak Bonefist equal seats at the table!"

"That's a word! I say we do this. We can do this." Rod says, excited.

"Port Peril first then, I suppose." The elf woman smiles. "Perhaps we can visit Quent to celebrate our fortune then. But we shouldn't forget about Meri's sister. Family is more important than glory, though the latter is all I have left."
