Magic washes over the party as...

<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 90 > [d100=90]
> roll 1d20+40 Mirima Fort
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 43 > [d20=3]

A stilled storm passes. There are flickers of oddness, mental fatigue coming and going. But soon enough you're through it, untouched and unharmed.

"Good catch," Jaela compliments Afina, looking over the others. "We all good to proceed?"

[Ebiris]

"Everyone seems fine," Afina agrees, drifting along unruffled and maintaining the weather to be serene around them because she can.

You've gone on...longer. You aren't sure how long. Time simply slips away. Ahead, you see a floating ship, tall masted and broad sailed. It's sailing along a little below you and coming in your direction. It's too far away to tell much about right now, but even from this distance, the humanoids on it don't look like githyanki.

[Corwin]

Jaela waves at the ship, figuring they might as well say hi.

[Anastasia]

The ship rises up a bit as it comes closer. You see the ship is populated by a few dozen beautiful women, all wearing various scanty clothes and waving at the party.

Mirima smiles. "Ah. Jaela, I have a sudden urge to take up piracy."

Bubbles frowns rather severely, "Urges or not, this smacks of a baited and honeyed trap."

[Ebiris]

"Or it's someone's harem," Afina says, not bothering to wave back.

[Corwin]

"One of the good things about Astral is that it's notoriously hard to ambush someone in transit," Jaela muses quietly. "They look pretty shady, though, and if they need to be stopped who better than us?"

[Anastasia]

"Hmmm...." Bubbles says, biting her lip, "Darling, I think we should be decisive, one way or another. Let's go or take the initiative."

Mirima frowns, "So beautiful women being without men is a trap?" she says, voice harsh, "Why, did you think the Graceful Blow was a trap?"

"I didn't say that," Bubbles shoots right back, "That many women without a man in sight is unusual enough. Let's be honest - most women want and need a man." A hand goes to her hip, "Sugar, on a journey in a possibly dangerous area? Yeah, I think that's unusual and possibly a sign of a trap."

[Ebiris]

"They're nothing to do with us. Let them be, we have our own business to attend to," Afina says, not seeing any sign that the sailors want to do anything more than wave in a friendly fashion as they pass.

[Corwin]

"Oh wow. Anyway, it feels fishy because they're all beautiful to the last and they're all scantily dressed and happily greet complete strangers," Jaela tells Mirima, not touching what Bubbles with a ten foot pole. "I'm heading off first!"

And then she flies closer to the ship!

[Ebiris]

"Well, it's Jaela's quest," Afina shrugs, detouring after her.

[Anastasia]

All of you fly down. Mirima gives Jaela a rather unkind look as you go, muttering in elven under her breath. You can see them - sailors, waving and calling as you come down.

"Hi!" "Welcome aboard!" "Nice to meet you!" Other such things as you come closer, also gathering around and below you as you fly on down.

[Corwin]

"Hey there!" Jaela returns. "Is that a gith ship, or one of your make? I'm pretty curious about flying ship design myself."
