Phan 57 – An Emerald Mirror, Twist ‘n’ Thwack



2025-07-01


The water to the starboard side of the boat darkens—not with shadow, but with motion. A shape, easily three times the length of your keelboat, swims just below the surface.

Its movement is smooth, purposeful… and it’s keeping pace with your vessel, mirroring your path like a predator studying its prey.

For a moment, it almost seems like a whale. But the angle is wrong, and the motion… too deliberate.

Then, with a slow, bubbling ripple, a great emerald-scaled head breaches the water.
A crown of horns, gleaming gold-green eyes, and a maw full of too many teeth break the surface.

The water runs down its snout in thick rivulets as it turns that massive head toward the deck of your boat and smiles

  • Encountered a dragon that seemed to know stuff about them – or was it just good at deductions?
  • Slept. uneventful watches
  • Party worked on map making, fishing, studying, enjoying downtime
  • Encountered Tidekin who sold them stuff.

 A small flotilla of Tidekin playful, amphibious humanoids with webbed fingers, mottled blue‑green skin, and fish‑like grins. They ride on little rafts made of driftwood and kelp, bumped up by inflated seal bladders so they bob just at the waterline. Their large, luminous eyes and toothy smiles give them a deceptively cute appearance—until they open their mouths to haggle

  • Bubbil Bonesnap sports a jaunty shell‑helmet and a patchwork kelp coat. Seems like the leader.
  • Scriv Scalescribe carries waterproof ledger‑leaves and quill‑like sea‐urchin spines.
  • Jinks Jitterfin: is the smallest, darting between rafts on a pair of tiny flippers

  • Got to Leilon, quoted 2-3 days to get the Twist ‘n’ Thwack fixed up. Ulfric offers to pay
  • Hedd bought 2 pot fire breath 150 gp
  • Met Forge Fitzwilliam in the pub. He had a message for Ernault
  • Spent night, prepared to go to the Dreadnought
