The Taverns
A tallow candle gutters fitfully in a dimly light room. You are assailed by
the strong smells of roast fish and seabird as well as open casks of seaweed
grog. Corsair crews crowd around a long oak table that's seen hard use. The
captains have colorful maps spread out and diligently plot their next voyages
while the other creatures bicker and roister over mugs of grog. A drunken rat
stands up shakily and assails you in a friendly but over-loud voice. "Here you
are matey, come on an' join the fun, eh?" You smile and find yourself a place
at the table.

___________________________
Lord Hakim Farrow and Lady Desdemona seek to destroy Sampetra and every corsair here. They want our island
because of our strategic location in the waters between Mossflower and Southsward,
which is a most convenient raiding ground. Our warm climate also adds to the temptation
to take the island. Farrow's northern island is small, rocky, rainy, cold, and
far out of the way of the regular traffic of trading vessels. The foxes are strong,
and own a powerful fox naval force, but they quarrel amongst themselves because their
ideas conflict. Farrow is a straitforward and warlike creature while Demona is
much more stealthy and under-handed.
