It is a relief to be back in good health. {There is the sound of wind on this recording - almost as if Sebastian is at a higher altitude.} Is anyone in need of aid? I am feeling quite generous.

Furthermore, I would like to know our next heading. I am a most able scout should our gambit require foresight.

{Private to Grell Sutcliff.}

{Temptation is playing with Sebastian. He is a starving demon without a Master. While he has no trouble waiting for a succulent meal, he has to wonder...

A snack would be nice.}


Are you alerted to all deaths on land and sea?

{He doesn't like his meals interrupted.}

[Upon his arrival, he's noted that words sort of just...appear in the book. He's also noted the voices and sounds he's hearing from it. Well, he might as well take a shot in the dark.

He's going to keep a level head as he writes the following:
]

Would someone be kind enough to explain the situation of this place? I'm going to assume this book is enchanted, and works as a means of communicating with others.

[Hours later, he's copying the poem on the boulder down.]

Behold this ruby,
Centuries old.
Its power is great,
True depths untold.
What once was whole,
Now in parts 'tis shattered.
Having it all,
Aye, that's what matters.
Rebuild the gem
And whatever ye wish will be.
Whether wealth, good fortune,
Mayhap the chance to flee.
Strangers listen:
Take heed, take care.
Or be lost forever
To Davy Jones' lair.


[It's after writing this, that he will be found sitting next to the fountain mulling this over.]

[This month, the Welcome Committee is trying something new! Since all of the most relevant information is now posted on flyers around Empieza, it seems more prudent to keep the Welcome Post as a general Q&A rather than the infodump of months past.]

[Not that this changes Codi's idea of an attention-grab any. Within the most recent entries, sprawled over most of a single page, are a group of bold, friendly red letters that should draw the eye quite easily: ]


HELLO NEW ARRIVALS

[Just below, the message continues: ]

Welcome to Empieza! Chances are that you are very confused and have many questions; we of the Welcome Committee are here to answer them! If you haven't located one of our representatives on the island, or if you can't find one of our informative flyers around town, this is the best place to ask. In order to respond, simply write in, or speak at, your journal, and we will get to you as soon as possible.

Wind in your sails,

Dakota Perkins and the Welcome Committee


[The message may have been written by Codi, but she claims this as a group effort; anyone from the Committee is allowed to respond, if they get to questions before she does. Granted, anyone not from the Committee is allowed to respond to newcomers, too, but she'll just be very cross about it.]

[Ask away!]

Ummm... [There was a sound of things getting knocked over and the sound of animals moving about, making their usual noise. It sounded like chaos whatever was going on.]

Question... Does one know how to stop a goat from eating all the food? I've tried taking it off them, but they then eat something else and I've lost a good skirt that way already. I'm kind of running out of options.

[Another loud crash as Lenalee had gone to move.]

Please, let go of that. It might seem tasty, but we need it to last a while longer. [Crashes, stern words being told and bahing were all one could hear for at least two minute before she returned.]

The goat is trying to hit my hair. If it keeps trying to eat everything, I cannot say it will be staying in one piece, so please someone come take him away. [So close to getting angry enough that the goat will be getting kicked off the boat. If that it literally or not is another question.]

[Private to the Sinewave and Triton's Mistress]

Since we are now in port I will be taking my leave from the Sinewave and rejoining the Triton's Mistress. I thank you for your hospitality during our stay. Do watch yourselves in our absence. I doubt those of the Navy we allowed to escape will forget the part the Sinewave and the Mistress had in their fleet's destruction.

[Private to Harlock]

Have you spoke to the harbor master yet regarding any repairs the ship may require? If not I could speak to him when I go ashore.

[Private to Connor]

Would you meet me at local Tavern? There is something I would like to discuss with you.

[Private to Ban]

Pity really. You have been so congenial of late. I suppose I can expect that helpful nature of yours to have been replaced by your less ambitious former self?
