Role-Play: The Blockade of Regis

[Meliva]

Ellen nods, and looks at Jacks wound. She walks over to a cabinet, and takes out some medical supplies. She heads back over to Jack. This, is going to sting for a minute. She quickly douses the wound with some very powerful alcohol, and quickly bandages it. She also administers a bit of first aid on William, considering the last time she saw him, he had been beaten by an oar. After patching them both up, she goes back and begins sifting through her notes. She says solemnly. I have some good news, and bad news. The good news is that I found a couple local drunks who look enough like you 2, that when found should stop the patrols looking for you, thankfully it seems all the local guards are idiots and fresh recruits. All the competent ones are guarding the docks and manning the ships in the armada. I also managed to delay the hanging for several days until nearby nobles show up to watch it. The bad news is, my little ones" She gestures outside to the orphans "have been gathering as much info as possible, and delivering notes to friends and acquaintances of mine to get help hitting the blockade." She looks at all the notes sadly. "But most of them refuse to help due to the size of the armada. Most think it suicidal to try to fight through, only a handful are willing to join in. My friend in the fort nearby is also no longer there. So I don't have any info regarding it. I sincerely hope you 3 have friends here willing to help. If you do, feel free to enlist one of my little ones to deliver any messages you may have. They will expect a coin in return, or some sort of treat. But other then that they make effective little messengers." She smiles as she pats the head on a orphan who just entered to deliver another note. She reads it, sighs, and tosses it into a rather large pile of similar notes. She sends him back out with a new note and a coin.

[Jack Teach]

So, What exactly are we trying to do? Because, I meself am a bit confused about what we are supposed to be doing.

[William one eye]

Better lock the door in case he shows up here, i should never if freed him from the prison

[William one eye]

If we can make contact my Armada, it can easily crush that blockade.

[Jack Teach]

Jack looks at him. There are hundreds man o war, ship of the line, large frigates, and other massive warships. We would have to call several navy's to to destroy the blockade. So, I suggest a different approach, something sneakier.

[Meliva]

Ellen looks to William. Well I think only Will knows that. He is the one who enlisted us to get him to Regis. Which we have accomplished. I am trying to figure out how to get past the blockade since we cant leave while its there, and I do not think it will end until you 2 are hanged. We cant escape by horse-The local patrols have taken all of them, and there are patrols around the city to keep people from fleeing by land. Ellen thinks to herself for a moment. I already fulfilled my promise to Will. He wanted to get to Regis. Well he is in Regis-mission accomplished. Why am I still helping them-my debt is paid, I got a nice chunk of gold, and all I have to do is wait for these 2 to get caught and hanged and I can simply sail out. She quickly shakes her head. No, that would make me a traitor-and id sooner blow my brains out then become a traitor. She sighs. This is a hell of a mess. She gets up, she remembers she is to have lunch with the governor. Guy really likes to hear stories. Maybe she can get him to have a soldier show her around the local fort. Make a contact there. She begins to leave. But first she looks towards her guests and Brian. I gotta head out for a meeting. Brian your in charge while I'm gone. Treat our guests right, and help them in any way you can. You know where ill be, so if I am needed send a messenger. She puts on her favorite hat and leaves.

[Jack Teach]

Jack gets an idea. Hears an idea: We use the governor. We could kidnap him somehow and threaten to kill him if they don't let us leave.

[Meliva]

Brian locks the door after she leaves. He motions 2 of his fellow crew mates to follow not too far behind her just to be safe. He looks back to Jack and Will. I think Jack has the right idea- that blockade is too massive for one navy to beat. At least in a fair fight. Maybe if we can lure several of them away into an ambush we could pick them off one group at a time. Regardless I think I will wait for El, to get back before I brainstorm any further. You lot can start thinking up plans and ideas. Feel free to look through our notes. We got a fair amount of intel here. The little ones are working around the clock to keep us updated. He nods as another orphan comes in and hands him another note, as he hands the orphan one in return along with a coin. Don't think the governor plan would work. The king has made it clear that he wants you 2 dead no matter the cost. Kidnap the governor and they would just blow him up along with both of you. If we could get the king that might work. But he isn't even in this bloody port.

[Jack Teach]

Jack looks at a newspaper. Well actually... Jack shows the newspaper to Brian. The title being: King of U.K. Visiting Regis to witness the hanging of infamous pirates. says he'll be in here in two days, along with the other nobles

[Meliva]

Brian looks at the paper. He realizes he has been so busy looking through all the notes and messages he forgot to check the paper they received this morning. "Well that is certainly good news. Gonna be tough to catch him though. Ellen could help with that. She is already getting on good terms with the governor. She could probably get close to the king too. Though might be best to check with her. Meanwhile Ellen is finishing up lunch with the governor. She is in the middle of another story, while eating the lunch provided to her. She finishes the story and asks if she could take a little tour around the local fort, as she hasn't been inside it in quite some time. The governor quickly agrees and a soldier comes along to escort her there. Her 2 crew sees her exit the mansion with an escort and go back to the Orphanage to report to Brian. On the way out she learns the 2 decoys were caught, and the city patrols have stopped looking for the actual Jack and Will. She thinks to herself this is good. Things are going to plan so far.
