Beech, Spends time on the trip trying to figure out where he can help on board the ship... After a few days, and a few muttered curses and at least two, "move your lard filled butt outa the way" comments, he decides the best thing to do is stay out of the way. He also thinks back over the adventuring stories he's heard hanging out in places like the Giggling Ghost, when he was just a kid, as well as overhearing things being discussed at various councils... "Hey, guys, I think finally remembered something. In that big city where they used to use chits or something like that I think they were called, I seem to remember a big Minotaur with wings, of course I can't remember his name, but he and a few of his group were discussing flying their ship up in the sky. Well, if we are going to chase the Moon, maybe we can borrow that Ship from them." He's not sure he has the story straight, but it's an idea...

Tsak is sure that the fact the Rose is can be powered by steam as required and also acts as a submersible makes her pretty special. Adding flying would sure be something, but all the questions it raises makes his head spin. Excusing himself from the conversation he makes his way to the crows nest for some quiet contemplation and a bit of staring at the stars.

Synopsis
After several forays, the party was able to permanently rid the Wold of the Lich Acthoor. What followed their second meeting was a grand celebration and send off by the community and the Druids they had helped become the guardians of the region.
The party returned to their boat, the Rose. After settling in, the conversation turned to a destination.
Kiwina shared a dream, “to follow the moon’s path, explore unknow regions or islands, and allow the spirits, or Aumakua to guide their path. Who knows what is out there, and who will join me exploring?” Following sharing this dream, Kiwina is pleasantly surprised at how quickly his friends agreed to travel with him.
Ayotnom finds the idea of “being sailors” intriguing and spends much of his time in the crows nest, enjoying the wind and what spray catches him
Tsak gets his room back in order and has the chest “Bud” hang out there. Upon hearing Kiwina’s dream, Tsak is all for following the moons’ path
Before boarding the Rose, Mak spends time letting Elmer stretch their legs, with a simple ride through the countryside. Once Mak is onboard, and settled, and has listened to Kiwinas’ dream, he asks some follow-up questions, "What's your plan? Sail to the spot where the moon rises and let it lift us from the water beneath us?" Mak asked as he thought it over. "How do we get back? Do we rise from the depths of the ocean the next night? Will we need to breathe underwater like we did before?" All these reasonable questions do draw concerned looks from the crew who mutter about the sanity of the group
Panzer is all for helping Kiwina, sharing ”When you spoke to Redemption, and you mentioned this regret to her, never following this dream. I think this sounds like a true adventure, sign me up my friend.” Panzer heads to his room to unpack and change out of his armor. While in the solitude of his room, he pulls out the crystal ball and some personal items and uses the ball to see his parents. Once done, he returns to the deck. Highlight to display spoiler: {That dagger you took off the Lich. It is no longer evil, and no longer enchanted, but it is a cool souvenir of the battles you lived through. As far as I’m concerned it’s a MW dagger, since it would have been in order for it to be enchanted.} Following this, Panzer re-dons his armor, and pitches in where he can
Beech takes some time to reorient himself on traveling by boat, having been spoiled by magical portals. After several days of being “politely” asked to move, Beech remembers a story, ”Wasn’t there a winged minotaur with a flying ship, maybe we could borrow that to chase the moon.”
Falco shares with Beech that the Rose “has been underwater with us once, but having a flying ship would be something.”
Kiwina responds to Mak, ”Maybe we can grapple onto the moon as it passes us, then we can return to the water when it does.”
Ayotnom asks an appropriate question, ”You want me to fly out and grapple with the moon?”
Mak then provides some insight into the “how” behind he and his friends hitching a ride on or with the moon, mentioning magical rope, literally clinging onto the moon, and not forgetting to bring their folding boat.
With all the talk of flying, the moon, and travelling, Tsak takes to the Crow’s Nest to do some hard thinking.
Falco, ever the voice of reason brings up a “sticky” point, ”this whole moon plan seems awfully bad, isn’t this the sort of quest that magic would help circumnavigate.”
Panzer’s mention of teleporting and Beech brings a response from Beech that he is “working on long-range teleporting.” He does share that his mother is able to send other people great distances with her magics, but feels that she is “cheating” somehow
The size and composition of the moon has been discussed for eons, however, as Kiwina points out to Mak and his other friends, ”The only way to answer those questions is to go see it for ourselves.”
A discussion about a trip to the catacombs occurs and then is shelved as the amount of items the party has at this time doesn't seem to merit a visit.

Tsak watches his companions argue and debate about how they're planning to fly us to the moon. It reminds him of being on a boat with dwarves, well the ingeniously snarky bits anyway. A wry smile crosses his face as he realises the petals are seriously discussing something that for most beings would be a complete impossibility. Life sure is interesting as an adventurer.

Falco checks out of the moon discussion thinking they would need to do research and preparation who even knows how hot or cold the moon is or if the environment would be as bad as Wolds blood. He spends his time working about the ship and taking watches in the crows next whenever he can.
JonS Co-DM - "Hey Diddle Diddle" Thursday June 13th, 2024 8:00:42 PM
While Tsak does a bit of drinking, and fishing, or possibly vice versa, the rest of the group banters and discusses Kiwina's plan of "visiting the moon, Warrd's moon to be specific."
While there are many locations of reference materials on the subject, and a slight chance that other Wold'ians have visited said moon, Kiwina persists that the "spirits will help" the party in their endeavor to reach the moon.
As the sun begins to set, stars begin to appear in the sky. Once the sun has sunk beneath the horizon, the moons begin to rise. Tonight Warrd is brighter in the sky, possibly showing off, or just pleased to be in charge of the night sky. The sailors see this as a good omen, especially since the use of lamps may not be needed.
As the Petals look over the water, moonlight filters through the waters around them, almost pointing them in a direction.
Tsak, between "sips" of liquor, has caught several nice-sized sea bass, which the cook offers to clean and cook for a late dinner. "We have some vegetables I need to use, so I'll start them roasting and get these fine fish cleaned and cooked.!"
As the smells of roasting vegetables, and fish cooking wash over the deck, a few dolphins can be seen playfully following the Rose

Kiwina shares stories with the sailors about why the Petals are out here. Some murmur that the group is crazy, others that this sounds like an interesting trip, one in the back pulls something out from under his shirt, a small shell with symbols inlaid in silver which Kiwina recognizes as a "spirit quest" item.
Outside of the stories, the guys hanging out in the Crow's Nest (Tsak and Mak) the night passes uneventfully.
As the moons set, the sun seems sluggish, and the ocean is covered in heavy fog ... a few loud splashes are heard, which prompt sailors to look over the sides of the ship. There are two grey whales (or the Wold equivalent), gently gliding alongside the Rose, looks like mother and calf. The calf is playfully splashing water on his mother, and on the starboard side of the ship.

As the ship sails steadily through the waves, Kiwina stands at the bow, gazing out at the ocean with a deep sense of awe. Suddenly, he spots a mother whale and her calf gracefully swimming alongside the vessel. His heart leaps with excitement, and he turns to the crew, his eyes shining with a mixture of joy and reverence. "Look!" Kiwina calls out, pointing towards the majestic whales. "Look at them!"
"This is a sign," Kiwina explains. "Aumakua often appear as whales, and it is auspicious when they do. They are here to protect and guide us on our journey. Whales are wise, strong, and deeply connected to the ocean. Seeing a mother and her calf together is especially powerful. It means that we are being watched over by our ancestors, that we have their blessing and protection."

He says, "Not that you'd want to interrupt Kiwana's omen of good fortune, but hypotethically speaking if we wanted to whale anything are we even equipped for such endeavors? I hear whaling is a tough and dirty business and besides the harpoons and rope and smaller boats to actually whale from do we have enough large vats to render the blubber? Also do you think if you attacked that calf the mother wouldn't have anything to say about it? I for one would not want to be in a rowboat with an angry momma whale out and about.

Tsak watches Panzer look at the whales, scan the seas and then move to the railing. He moves up beside the Badger It's an interesting thought, but anything that could attack a whale might also make mincemeat of a small, furry land creature. I think she's got this.

Subbing for Mak - SteveM Tuesday June 18th, 2024 10:51:23 PM
Mak sits perched in the crow’s nest, high above the deck of the ship, his eyes scanning the endless horizon. The salty wind tugged at his hair and filled his lungs with the fresh scent of the sea. As the sun begins its descent, casting a golden hue over the rippling waves, Mak's thoughts drift far from his current post.
He lets out a sigh, leaning against the wooden rail of the crow’s nest. The rhythmic creak of the ship and the gentle sway beneath his feet were constants, but his mind is elsewhere. Despite the beauty of the open ocean, Mak longs for the bustling energy of a tavern. He can almost hear the raucous laughter, the clinking of mugs, and the melodic strum of a bard’s lute.
"Ah, a tavern," he murmurs to himself, a wistful smile playing on his lips. "A warm fire, a hearty meal, and a tankard of ale. That’s what I need."
(ooc - thank you kind Sir ... and a tankard of cold mead and a hearty meal sound great about now)

Mak imagined the comforting glow of lanterns hanging from wooden beams, the rich smell of roasting meat mingling with the aroma of freshly baked bread. He could see the friendly faces of townsfolk, old and new, sharing stories of adventures and mundane village life alike. It was a stark contrast to the vast, solitary ocean that stretched out before him now.

Several days pass, with the sun setting, the moon showing off, and the sun rising. On the third night since the moon showed up full, the navigator seems to be having an issue, and is overheard speaking with the Captain about, "I think our heading is off, or something is off, the Moon shouldn't still be full."
The sailors who hear this look like they are going to start a discussion, and then spot the number of Petals on the deck, and go back to mending ropes, nets, and sails.
Kiwina, Panzer, and Tsak (before he wanders off to find food) watch as the whales slow their swimming and allow the ship to continue without them.

That night, the cook brings out a hearty fish stew, with many vegetables and warm drop biscuits for dinner. He also has leftovers from lunch that he has turned into meat pies. Cheese, bread, and pickles (spicy ones) are also provided.
Though nervous about the moon, the crew seems to be in good spirits, and a few call out to the Petals for stories of their adventures.

Tsak catches bits and pieces of conversation regarding the moon and its fullness. He's not particularly worried. The whales didn't seem concerned, and the ranger places a lot of faith in animals and their finely honed senses. He just assumes any changes to the moon are the result of the Rose travelling slowly toward it.
In the galley he helps the cook out here and there, and helps himself a couple of drop biscuits straight out of the oven.

The ship sailed on, steady and true, carrying its crew through the ever-changing moods of the sea. For Mak, the crow’s nest was a place of duty, but also a place of dreams. Dreams of warmth, laughter, and the camaraderie found in the snug corners of a well-loved tavern. "Just a few more days," he told himself. "Then we'll be done, and I’ll have that ale."
Mak’s eyes continued their vigilant watch, scanning for any signs of trouble. Pirates, storms, or hidden reefs—his job was to spot these dangers before they could catch the ship unawares. But in his heart, he was already seated at a rough-hewn table, listening to the din of conversation and the occasional outburst of a hearty song.

Kiwina finds the change in the moon fascinating, and takes it as a good sign. A very powerful one. When the whales let them go unhurriedly, he takes that as good too, as if the Rose had been guided where she needs to be.
"It is important now that we remain respectful and pay attention to the natural and spiritual signs around us. This moon is both our new guide and a reminder to stay vigilant and prepared." Kiwina brings out his rod, so that his ghostly spirit companions can be seen, and talks to them about what he observes. He hopes for clear dreams tonight.

The day passes rather uneventfully. Again, dinner is fresh caught fish and vegetables. A small cask of rum is opened. When Mak and Falco switch spots in the Crow's Nest, Mak informs Falco, "I thought I saw, well something on the horizon. So keep a weather eye out." Mak then saunters on deck looking for food and drink.
Beech stays to the center of the ship, or heads down into the cargo hold to practice magic as its the most open space with no other people milling about.
Kiwina and Ayotnom have a conversation on whether they are "Mad" and want to "press their luck"
Panzer brings up the topic of "Proper etiquette," leaving such conversations to Kiwina
Tsak got collared to help with dinner again. Several large marlins were caught and the chef needed help trimming them down. There may be a dice game later for who gets to keep the pointy noses

The cook seems to relish having a helper in the kitchen as most of the sailors tend to shy away from his and his big cleaver. He begins showing Tsak ways to clean and prepare fish, as that is the major source of meat they get. ”Eating fish day in and day out, gets old. That’s why spices and the various cooking methods are great. Now, some of what we catch has to be cared for specially, some fish have poison sacs, others have spines with poisoned tips, mainly that’s their weapons and armor.”
Beech can feel the Weave, the flow of magic around him, yet it seems to be elusive as he attempts to cast his magics
Ayotnom is all ears for Kiwina’s answer to his question
Kiwina gladly answers. ”Why would you think us mad for following a calling?” That Ayotnom asked the question seems to puzzle the centaur
Falco does as Mak directed, and watches as something is happening…Highlight to display spoiler: { Whatever the white things are, they are getting closer to the ship. You catch the slightest smell of flowers, ones that seem to draw the attention to them. These are Moon Lily’s. They glow in the night after soaking up sunlight during the day.

The moon getting larger does not make this time to become complacent. Mak made some cryptic comment earlier, so Kiwina asks him, "What did you see out there?" He takes in the unusually large moon, wondering if they're close enough to get some perspective on distance.

Falco warns Ramsey to slow the Rose, which he does by lowering the main sail. As the Rose slows to almost a crawl, everyone aboard can see the glowing lilies, each the diameter of a dinner plate. The smell they put off washes away the smells of the sea, salt, body odors, and anything else.
As the flowers make their way around the ship, they begin pushing it towards the rather large moon sitting on the horizon.
Small issue is that no one can recollect watching the sun set and the moon rise.
After what feels like several hours, the flowers begin slowing the ship down to a crawl ... about 100 yards away, there is something in the water ... the something is at least 100' in diameter, and it is slowly approaching the ship.
The Petals notice that none of the crew are calling for weapons or to prepare for an attack, they seem to be in a haze. In fact, their bodies appear hazy, and change from one shape to another ... Kiwinia recognizes some of the shapes as those the Aumakua take when appearing to mortals ...

He focuses on Kiwina, its her quest after all and he talks about the whales.....They had names! But of course they did Panzer, he says to himself, they weren't just any whales, they were HIS whales.
The crabs offer them a drink, and Panzer cordially, he thinks, accepts. Unlike Tsak though he waits to drink it. This fellow looks like the type that offers a toast, and Panzer wants to be sure that he has a drink in hand when it is offered.
" What can I do for you and your friends?" Well isn't that the question. Panzer has no clue. Kiwina suggested this quest, and it sounded pretty hard, going to the moon and all.

Falco takes the drink as offered keeping an eye on the new arrival. He thinks of the Saragrass incident and how that shook the Wold which dampens any excitement he might have for a higher powers direct intervention. While he follows the Waroer-sar's way of change he does not want direct interaction.
Once the others drink Falco will no and sip his drink as well.

Beech had heard many stories of various things, well, this isn't a story, it's happening in real life. He accepts the drink and waits, not because he fears what's in it, but until it's suggested to drink... Whomever this is, Beech isn't sure, he is powerful enough to accomplish all of this, he has no need to pull one over on the Petals....

The drink is surprisingly bubbly and sweet. AS you drink it the cares and concerns of the last few weeks seem to wash away.
Drinking from their own larger chalice, the figure looks up at the moon, "I don't know if I've ever come across someone, well a whole group of someone's who want to visit my moon. If I could snap my fingers and make it so, we'd be there. But, as with all things there are rules. There do exist portals that can bring you my moon, you just have to find them. There are places in the Catacombs that will whisk you away to the most dangerous lands you've encountered. There is a rumor that another place exists within the Sargrass, but I've never visited it. While I can't take you there, I can offer you something from my realm. When the sun rises you shall find them."
Taking another long pull on his chalice he looks around, "Any questions gentlemen, the night grows long and I can feel the sun lurking beneath the horizon."

Kiwina stands at the bow of his ship, the surrounding sea bathed in the ethereal glow of the enlarged moon, which hangs low in the sky like a great silver orb. The moon lilies float serenely around the vessel, their delicate, luminous petals reflecting the moonlight and creating a surreal, dreamlike atmosphere. As Honu Nui, the great sea turtle, approaches, Kiwina feels a profound sense of reverence and purpose.
At the great turtle's question, Kiwina explains. His voice is filled with a mix of awe and determination. "Guardian of the sea, I am a navigator. I have journeyed far and faced many trials to reach this point. Since I was a child, I have felt a calling, a destiny that compels me to sail eastward, to the place where the moon rises from the ocean. This journey is a quest for discovery, and a pilgrimage to fulfill a deep spiritual longing."
He pauses, gathering his thoughts, the moon's gentle light casting his face in a soft glow. "The stories of my people speak of a place where the earthly realm meets the celestial, where the boundaries between land, sea, and sky blur. I believe that this is where I am meant to go, to climb onto the moon and find enlightenment, to connect with the spirits of my ancestors, to ride above the land and see its geography laid out before me, and to understand my place in the universe."
"With your guidance, Honu Nui, I hope to reach the moon and fulfill the purpose that has been calling to me all my life."

Mak looked back at Tsak. "Really? The last time some guy like this messed with us he killed someone." Mak said, getting the sequence of events wrong purposely. "No wait. He made us beg to NOT kill someone." he said in exasperation as the cool liquid in the chalice called to him.
"That does look good." Mak admitted. "I suppose someone bring us libation can't be all bad." he said as he took a slow sip which ended up with the chalice bottom up and Mak Smacking his lips.
"That hit the spot!" he exclaimed.

Listening intently as the figure spoke of portals and the potential to visit his moon, Mak exchanged a skeptical glance with Tsak. His memories of past encounters with powerful beings were tinged with caution and skepticism, but the allure of the moon and the promise of something new stirred a sense of curiosity within him.
"Questions, eh?" Mak mused aloud, his voice tinged with a hint of skepticism. "What exactly is the Sargrass? Is this a place we should seek out, or avoid?" His tone was measured, betraying both his curiosity and lingering reservations.
As he finished his questions, Mak raised his chalice once more, taking another satisfying sip of the glowing liquid but finding that his cup was empty. The taste was exquisite, a blend of flavors that seemed to dance on his tongue, momentarily distracting him from the weight of uncertainty that hung in the air.
"Whatever path we choose," Mak continued, addressing the shape-shifting figure, "your hospitality and this drink are much appreciated. It seems we find ourselves in your realm not by chance, but on a quest to satisfy Kiwina's life long goal. I look forward to seeing what the results of that quest are."

Kiwina listens intently, absorbing the creature's words. It becomes clear to him that literally riding the moon out of the ocean might not be the path destined for him. Instead, he understands that his journey might involve traversing these mystical portals, venturing into unknown and perilous realms to reach his goal. Though this revelation brings a tinge of disappointment, that is the way of things when the spirits are involved.
With a deep bow of respect, Kiwina addresses the creature, his voice steady and filled with gratitude. "Thank you, great one, for your wisdom and your generosity. While the path you describe is different from what I had envisioned, I am honored by your guidance and the gifts you have bestowed upon us. We will seek out these portals."

Tuesday July 2nd, 2024 4:03:27 PM
Panzer watches everything going on wondering about these “gifts in the morning.” He was also glad that Tsak got a possible escalation de-escalated.
Mak looks for information on the “Sargrass,” but is happy to support his friend
Kiwina listens to everything being said, and thanks the figure/person/spirit for their “Wisdom and generosity.” Kiwina promises to seek out one of the mentioned portals
Tsak mentions that the Sargrass is a “Weird place,” and that the Sargrass is where they got the Rose. Then his mind begins to wander back through past exploits.
Falco mentions that the Sargrass is the “center of a World changing event, which is how the Warper-Sar and their brethren into the Wold.” An event which changed Falco forever. Following some Q&A with Mak, Falco begins to reminisce about past group members and how he is still present.
Beech considers his own quest and what it might entail, and with whom, and then remembers that during this “World changing event” he was in the Culverwood, helping design a drawbridge over a river to allow trade barges to go up and down river. The whole crazy seed thing appeared to have taken care of the bridge issue
Ayotnom had asked at one point about hints or clues to the nearest portal location. The figure touches the right side of their nose and winks Highlight to display spoiler: { a voice next to your ear quietly says, there is one in the Sargrass region. The monks who dwell there can set you upon the path, if you can appease them. Though being difficult to navigate, less people die by using this route than the others.}
Mak questions Falco’s statement about the Sargrass, “I’m not sure it exists. Then prompts Falco with a question of his own, “You sure you didn’t imagine it?”
The being looks over the party, “Questions answered as well I am allowed, hearts at ease, good stiff drink to start the day, it feels like my time is up. The sun is so impatient. I can help you with one more thing though.”
An explosion of soft white and golden light erupts as the figure vanishes … when everyone can see again, the Petals notice items have been placed in their hands … Beech and Panzer recognize these, having been gifted one by Queen Maab … Falco, Tsak, Mak, and Ayotnom all find a large moonlily flower in their hands … Moonflower: Works like a hero point, does not count against the total limit of hero points. Can be "gifted" to another player in the party if needed.
Kiwina finds a heavy silver chain has been placed in his right hand – attached to the chain is a droplet shaped crystal bottle containing liquid moonlight Highlight to display spoiler: { This item provides you with 4 benefits: 1) The Spirits can aid you when making a Craft, Heal, or Survival skill check. May reroll any failed check, but you must use the new roll. No daily limit, other than you can only reroll a check once.
2) Provides you with 30' Darkvision
3) Gains +4 to any Diplomacy or Intimidate checks associated with creatures affected by the moon, such as lycanthropes.
4) You now have a personal spirit guide, who takes whatever form you wish. The Spirit provides you access to two Druid cantrips each day, which can be changed each day.}
The other thing, which the Petals are alerted to, is that the ship seems to have changed direction, 180 degrees with a light breeze moving the Rose along. There is also a large round floating disk (10' across) which is covered in "breakfast" kinds of things, as well, two large decanters of the liquid all of you drank earlier, and another stone pot which seems to contain a hot drink (2 gallons of hot coffee).
