The Sigil had regrouped on the boat anchored about 100 yards from
the tiny island they had first appeared on. The boat seemed calm and
empty, although there were large bubbles, all about the size of a normal
human, spaced around it. Unsure of what to do, the group explored the
ship, while Tori and Whilce brought ballistas from the hold to arm the
deck, and Neiris kept a look-out. Finally, exhausted after a long day
and realizing rest was their only option, the party chose watches and
went to sleep.
The next morning Cullen, Tori, Neiris and Alturo returned to the
island to see if there was anything for them there. They found a
magical symbol in the cave that represented their group, and also found
that something had come ashore in the night and carted off the corpses
that had littered the beach the previous day. Somewhat spooked and
having explored every avenue on the island, the group returned to the
ship.
As soon as they returned, they were surprised when the ship lurched
out to sea. Apparently the giant kraken they had fought the night
before had grabbed the anchor, and was using it to drag their ship
farther away from land. They decided to let him, as they had no real
way to stop him, and thought he might be taking them somewhere
specific. After an hour, they stopped, and were attacked by some
sahaugin. As the group fought, they noticed more bubbles arriving, and
inside one was a human who seemed to worship the concepts of good. He
freed himself from his bubble prison and helped the Sigil repel
invaders. At this time the kraken joined the battle, and succeeded in
wrecking the boat. As the boat began to sink, the sahaugin began
herding the party into the bubbles that were floating in the water. As
a party member entered a bubble, a gas enveloped them, knocking them
out.
We ended as the party disappeared below the waves with their
captors.
