The story so far , Chapter 2

Our intrepid party spend two days resting up in the house waiting for the ship to arrive.On the second night a signal is seen. The party disguised as sailors, using the dead mens clothes, set out to the ship in their boat. Half way there they meet a boat coming shorewards from the ship. They manage to pass themselves off as friends, although the sailors language is difficult to understand. The party race back to the cave, and ambush the two sailors as they get out of the boat. The party decide to take on the ship and row out to her.The parties flimsy disguises fool the sailors. Who start to unload the Brandy barrels from the parties boat. Vadim jumps up from the boat onto the ship, and then helps Hador aboard. The sailors realise something is amiss. But it isn't until the dwarf, Thurik, and Donavan, disguised as a mage, clamber aboard, do they realise the ship is being boarded. A sailors and an officer of some sort are on the main deck and attack the party.Two sailors are hauling the brandy barrel aboard, let go the rope, and the barrel crashes into the parties boat sinking it. The sailors advance on the party. Both Vadim and Thurik strike the snaked eyed officer , with blows that should fell a normal man. The officer replies with a thrust of his sword sending Thurik to his knees. The party start to wonder if they've bitten off more than they can chew....

Our party backs to wall, fight valiently. Donavan keeps Thurik alive and fighting with healing spells. Hador and Thurik , with a little help from Donavan and Vadim , fight off the attacking sailors. Three Lizard creatures appear from one of the cabins, and dive off into the sea. After the party kill the ships officers, the remain three sailors surrender. The sailors bargin for their lives , and tell the party of the treasure in the hold a secret compartment, and that the captain , old snake eyes, has been selling top quality weapons to Lizardmen in Saltmarsh. The party while searching the ship , discover a hold full of casks, and cloth. And a secret compartment where a sea elf called oceanus has been kept prisoner.

Our party search the ship, and free the sea elf. After a debate, the party decide the lizardmen need investiagting. Donavan thinks their motives for purchasing weapons maybe innocent. However the rest of the party think they could be ready to assult the village. Part of the pary goes back and warns the village. The villages are afraid of a lizardmen attack. And warn the party about going through the marsh, becasue of the giant lizard who inhabit the saltmarshes. Harry Luck one of the fishermen, offers to let the party use his boat to approach them from the sea. The party return to the captured ship, the SeaGhost, to heal up before continuing with their adventures.
