The Docks

From the watch tower, the party could see the harbor and the 2 ships Harbek mentioned. They were at opposite ends of the dock and were definitely wary of each other. There were guards on both of the ships.

Worse yet, there was a third ship in the center of the harbor. It looked exactly like the one the party had, except for several more battle scars along the hull. It appeared unoccupied and unguarded.

The party made several attempts to incite a battle between the ships, even drawing the ire of the watch. However, an impressive intimidation check by Ekeraath had them backpedaling and out of the way in no time.

Finally, Rudy was able to persuade one side and with the sound effects and fire from Kuppies, the battle was started and both ships left the harbor.

Finally, Kuppies took the control crystal from their boat and used it in Damakos'. Piloting the ship away, the docks were emptied and ready for an assault.
