Pirate Ship: Difference between revisions

Eliwood, Hector, and [[Lyn]] have secured a method of transportation to [[Valor|Dread Isle]] on [[Fargus|Fargus’s]] ship. As they draw closer to their destination, Eliwood asks Fargus why he agreed to take their company to Dread Isle. Fargus replies that he has been seeking a challenge and Eliwood’s company presented the most interesting one he had seen in years. Fargus also expresses confidence in Eliwood’s ability to be the first to visit Dread Isle and live to tell the tale and promises that he will weigh anchor for Eliwood and pick his group up when they are ready to leave. Meanwhile Lyn is standing on the deck near the bow of the ship, alone. Hector comes to the deck looking for Eliwood but finds Lyn, who is clearly uncomfortable with receiving aid from the pirates. Hector tells Lyn again that there is no other way for them to reach Dread Isle, a statement that clearly irks Lyn. Hector again tries to calm her down by telling her that the pirates do not seem like bad people and that she should not allow the murder of parents to color her perception of the pirates. Lyn then reveals in gruesome detail how her [[Lorca|tribe]] was killed. The bandits poisoned the tribe’s drinking water and then attacked while everyone was rendered defenseless by the poison’s effects. The last she saw of her [[Hassar|father]] was his arms shaking from the poison as he lifted her onto a horse and sent her off to safety. Lyn was rescued by another tribe and awoke ten days after the attack. By that time, the dead had already been buried, denying her the chance to say farewell in any capacity. Hector, in turn, shares how he lost his parents to illness and his sorrow in having to hide his tears from the public and the others within Castle [[Ostia]]. Later, when he was alone, he wanted to do nothing but cry but found himself unable to shed a single tear.

The three lords manage to defend long enough for Fargus to fix the ship, enabling him and his crew to take care of the remaining units. After the enemies are dealt with, Ninian comes out to the deck. Eliwood finds out that Ninian has lost her memories when she fails to respond to her name and cannot answer as to why she was adrift at sea. Eliwood, Lyn, and Hector decide to take Ninian along to the Dread Isle to protect her from further attacks from the [[Black Fang]] and because Fargus’s men believe she is cursed and refuse to keep her on board for longer than necessary.  

The three lords finally arrive at Dread Isle. Before they begin to explore the island in search of the [[Dragon's Gate (location)|Dragon’s Gate]], Fargus makes [[Dart]] accompany them and informs the group that he will wait for two weeks for their return. As Fargus departs, Lyn remarks that there are good people, even among pirates.
