[Taocow PBEM] Chapter II - Of War and Prophecy - Bongo's Second Big Adventure

[Eric Tan]

[Osiris]
 
Keeping his eye on Arden, he listens close to the others as they discuss what is going on and their plan to get off the ship. Making sure that his armor is properly secured and that his weapons and harness is in good order, he sits quietly contemplating how things will work out and how they can get off this ship without casusing too much havoc.
 
[Osiris]
Happy christmas and news years to you all!

Phaeton shakes his head. *I can only say that she is a key, though there 
are two others. If we meet again, I shall explain it better, but I will 
say nothing else of this.*

[GM]
Phaeton nods. *And you be cautious. The Captain distrusts you too, and 
if he catches you, astral or not, you and your companions will suffer.*

[GM]
A guard, armed as well as those guarding Bongo's quarters, has been set 
beside the SAMAS. The Captain is no where to be seen, and the night 
watch is no more than ten men, two on bridge and two patrolling the deck 
and belowdecks.

In the distance, the coast of what must be Ireland can be seen more 
clearly as the mists clear. The lights of a sizable settlement can be 
seen twinkling in the south, though the ship seems to be steaming 
northward and away.

[Lady Frost]
"Bongo," Lady Frost says, "did you see that Phaeton fellow? What did you 
learn?"
[/Lady Frost]
