Captain's Log: 001

[rivecaptain]

This is one of those journals you Off Worlders have, isn't it? Whichever god it is that hands them out seems to have good timing

A whirlpool? When do you believe it appeared?

[rivecaptain]

I know it appeared this morning. A captain doesn't let the sea go unread, and especially not something as drastic as this.

[enchantedimsure]

Were there any indicators of magick? Any sparks, shining in the water? Anything that would've given evidence of an outside source?

[rivecaptain]

You'll have to forgive me if I didn't exactly get close enough to see. A maelstrom is a maelstrom, and I'll not risk my ship getting near enough to know the details.

[enchantedimsure]

Of course not...
But I hope there might be a way to find the source. Someway to banish it. The sea's disturbance is never a good sign of the balance of nature.

[rivecaptain]

It's possible the cause is purely natural. Something might have caused a change in the sea bed, the resulting currents could have formed it.

[enchantedimsure]

True... I am not the most experienced with natural phenomena. I pray that this is not more of the Gods' mischief.

[rivecaptain]

Whatever it is, it's a hassle.

[rosereddaughter]

I suppose I could go have a look, for a price.

[enchantedimsure]

I would never send one of our subjects into the fray simply for information! It's far too dangerous.

[rosereddaughter]

I'm not a subject of this government, Laksha. I believe a good term is 'Expat', or someone who works and lives in another country without being a citizen. And I'd hardly call it 'into the fray' when I was just going to fly out and see if I can sense anything from it. I might even be able to send a recording device into it if you have such a thing.

[enchantedimsure]

I fear tossing a journal into the storm would do no good. Perhaps I could enchant something...

[rosereddaughter]

It wouldn't be the first storm I've flown through, and for a first venture I have no interest in unnecessary risks.
