⚔ 10 - Colonial Rite

[Open - Written]

[Unheard, the crinkle of a newspaper being folded and placed down beside the journal proceeded what was written across the page.]

Refreshing to see democracy in action. I am referring of course to the matter of the Bläckfisk elections. My son is always stomping about proclaiming the virtues of the people’s choice in government. I wonder what he will say now that those of Bläckfisk have done just that.

[With a bit of guidance, naturally.]

Fledging government and all, it is still a tumultuous time for those of Bläckfisk. I would recommend steering clear of the place until things settle. It is the island’s first proper election after all. There are bound to be a few rough patches as they find their way. Best your crews do not get mixed up in them. It would be a shame to hear you had lost a ship by sailing into port during an inopportune moment.

[Open to most but Locked from Elissa and her ‘ex-husband’]

At any point in your travels have you discovered a reputable jeweler? I am certain there are some around I just hadn’t cause to make note of them before. Though I suppose, in a pinch, some bit of plundered treasure might suffice if any of you have happened upon a ring and would be willing to part with it?

[Private to Triton’s Mistress]

To the crew of the Triton’s Mistress,

The business Elissa and I were distracted by has been concluded. Where might we catch up to you? Depending on how we travel, we may be passing by Isla Empieza on our return. Should you require anything we might be able to pick it up for you.

[It isn't over Sindbad's head.]

Hmmm. Who forced the retirement? The citizens? And why?

No, I'm sure it wouldn't make you friends, but that doesn't mean the people did anything. That's why I'm asking. I want to know what they did and why? What made them think they could?
borntochangetheworld: (I'm bored)

Dunno. Never seen that kind of system. The leader of Parthevia is an Emperor and people were born into it. It isn't about what people want. Or about the people at all

I don't know much about it yet, but I'm going to. I'm going to become a king!

I'm not a prince, I'm going to do it with my own two hands. A traveler told me what to do, to conquer the dungeon to get power. I did that, but it's not enough power. I need to be king so I can change the world. No one will listen to me now, but someday they will!

Lots of magic weapons for one, and riches beyond everything I could dream but every dungeon has a djinn. That djinn grants the conqueror its power.

Sorry, Vyse got too busy to help me out here.

'Course it followed me! It dwells within an artifact. That's how they work, only now they're outside the dungeon and wandering around with me instead.

[He sighs a bit.]

Dungeons are very dangerous. I wouldn't just go in unless you are ready to die for what you want.

They are and they do!

[Sinbad grins.]

Not that I've had much chance to use it for anything yet. In case I need it. Apparently your djinn can also give power to anyone in your Household. There's all kinds of things I don't know about yet, I think!

[He hums thoughtfully.]

You don't really accomplish anything though if you just die.

[He hums a bit, thinking about it.]

Well he doesn't grant wishes, only power. I'll be a bit more specific. I have the djinn Baal. So he grants me a move called Bararaq Saiqa which is lightning magic. Ja'far is a member of my Household now, and Baal gave him the power of Bararaq Sei which lets him use the same kind of lightning magic, only in his weapon instead of mine. Ja'far came back from being a little more into the future and showed me how his weapons are now working with mine. It's really interesting! We haven't learned that much about it though.
