"I think it's time we left now..." Robyn whispered to Dacey and moved towards the door, not taking her eyes off the thing. "Who are you?" Robyn asked, it clearly already knew where they were, best to keep it talking.

No one is talking shit! Tabards! Fucking autocorrect! Anything else of value rotted long ago, save an antique golden coin they find. "These knives look nice but they're fragile," she said. She smiles at him nervously. "Not at all," she agreed. "Nor a knight out of his time, I don't think." Korben stopped in his tracks as he looks back at her. "...were you the one who brought me here?" He asked.

"Oh no," she said, wheezing from her bruised ribs. "But my gods said you would come. They promised friends though." She smiled. "I'm Hanna."

The apparition 'grinned'. "I am the Eternity's End," it said. "The ship of the dead." Dacey creeps with her.

'The dead? We'll be leaving then," Robyn said, and quickly left the room, pulling Dacey behind her, and going the way they came,

Dacey follows her. The mist follows them, a low roar as they run into Nick and Steffon. "Fuck. This. Ship." Harlaw said. "This thing is out to kill us!"

Hanna shook her head. "I'm not, I am from here and when," she said. "But my gods tell me things others don't hear. You need to find the ship...the Eternity's Edge...the real ship. Not the monstrosity you boarded."

"Wait. Real ship?" Korben asked as he looked to her, "Where would I....no...you don't mean when, do you?" Korben asked, having a sinking feeling about this.

"I mean in your day. The ship is angry...." she reaches for him as he turns to see the other four racing at him. A mist monster in...pursuit? Very lackadaisical pursuit.
"Nice of you to join us!" Steffon said. "Now fucking run!"

"Where have you been?" she asked, grabbing his arm and pulling him after them, "You can tell us later."
She looked over her shoulder at the monster, and joined the others in running as fast as can be towards their own boat.

The 5 vs...the fucking Ghost Ship!
Robyn: 101 Korben: 101 Nick: Dacey: Steffon:
FUCKING GHOST SHIP!!!:
So this fight is different from most. There's no reasonable way to kill the damn thing, so every roll is going to involve trying to escape to your boats. The Ship rolls at 70 below decks, 90 on the stairs, and 100 when someone reaches the top to get to the boat. Every stage has to be beaten. If heavy hit on the deck you fall through the boards and get to start over again!

Round 1:
Robyn: 162 VS 129 (pass) Korben: 169 VS 128 (pass) Nick: 121 VS 147 (Fail -20) Dacey: 127 vs 100 (pass) Steffon: 131 VS 111 (pass)
The five rush across the hall, but a plank cracks under Nick's feet and he suffers a massive cut on his leg as splinters detonate under his feet. He pulls his foot out and hobbles as fast as he can! Robyn and Korben are first down the hallway, the misty fingers grabbing at them, but steel interrupts it for a minute, enough to keep moving.

Robyn will slow down and help Nick if he needs if. of course.

Round 2: The Stairs!
Robyn: 164 vs 151 (pass) Korben: 119 vs 134 (fail, -10) Nick: 113 vs 126 (fail -30 now) Dacey: 151 vs 111 (pass) Steffon: 180 vs 165 (pass)
Nick takes another hit and he is slowing badly, and Korben's axe is too unwieldy for good use on the stairs so he grits his teeth as the mist leeches life from him. Robyn again effortlessly passes the gauntlet, small and quick and her sword perfect for close quarters combat.

Round 3: The Deck!
Robyn: 171 vs 118 (pass) Korben: 132 vs 144 (fail, -20, has to try again) Nick: 166 vs 118 (pass) Dacey: 139 vs 173 (fail, -20, try again) Steffon: 121 vs 143 (fail, -10, try again)
The deck is treacherous and only Robyn skips effortlessly across. Nick's sword is more effective in the open air and he makes it to the boats, but holes opening up have creates a maze for the other three. Dacey is in real trouble; old beating wounds from the time travel slowing her and the blood being sucked from her wounds by the hungry ghost lord.

When Robyn gets to the boat, she looks for a rope to dacey, or anyone really, she wanted them all to live if possible.
