RP- Port Battle for the Strait

[Meliva]

As they approach the strait they can see the enemy ships, though the crew don't seem to be moving. Zephrya laughs

Good, Veera took them out.

[Jack Teach]

Jack orders that the ships drop canvas and stop. The guns are run out

We should make sure.

Jack gives Zephyra a spyglass

[Meliva]

Zephyra looks, and see's that the crew are all unmoving, with gray skin. She shouts

Look like statues to me. Veera might be a pretty bad person, but she keeps her deals if nothing else. If she said she'd turn them to stone, she'd make sure she did so.

[Jack Teach]

Jack looks to Zephyra

She wants the ships. So we can take possession of them and sail them back with prize crews and leave the men somewhere.

[Meliva]

She nods

Sounds good. I'll go and fly along the strait and make sure the rest are all stone too. Then I can check the areas near by for any land forces.

Zephyra flies off, while Jack deals with the ships.

[Jack Teach]

Prize crews are given and the ships are sailed by them to a small island. The ships are unloaded of their stone crews completely, and then they are sailed back to valorim to be picked up by veera.

[Meliva]

Zephyra flies back.

Well all the crews are stone, and for land forces they got a bunch of mortars set up to fire into the strait, along with some musket men and artillery. The good news is that they have only managed to build the foundation of the fort, and havn't gotten much farther then that yet.

[Jack Teach]

Jack checks his knife, and puts it away

So we can either march over there, or destroy them with ships.

[Meliva]

Zephyra shakes her head

Ships wouldn't work. They got thing set up on the strait's cliffs for the most part. Most of your cannons wouldn't be able to reach them, while their mortars would just wreck your fleet. You'd have to march to them, but it would be a very hard battle. They are basically entrenched, with plenty of men and ammo.

[Jack Teach]

Jack raises an eyebrow

How'd you know?
