=== Day 5, Part Two ===
Later that night during the third watch my plan worked. The two prisoners escaped just as I planned. I mean why else would I have tied such overly complicated but loose knots. So, these 2 think they got the slip on us, but I follow them, it would have been perfect, but see unlike the dwarf I was not raised in a cave so I can not see in the dark and there were clouds and stuff blocking the moon light so the prisoners somehow knew when I was there and stepped on branch, maybe it was cause I said shit loudly when it happened but how was I supposed to know they could hear in the dark like a dwarf. Anyway, that aint no matter see cause like any good sailor I am quick on my feet.
The others catch up with me on account of me going slower than I have too. See, I had this clever fucking plan to let them think they got away and follow them to wherever they are going. I mean the big base has to be around here somewhere. So I tell the others my plan and we all kinda run poorly to give the prisoners a bit of a lead so they feel comfortable. You know what, it fucking works better than a well tied bowline knot. Trust me, I know a good knot.
So we follow them aways to this forested area. The three go in and we follow soon after, you know what we find. A whole fuckin walled town, in the middle of this shitty little forest. I mean it is bad enough all these people wanting to live miles from the sea but I mean in the middle of the forest! Our mothers did not raise no fools, well actually in my case it was the captain. Fools on a ship soon fall off and all that. We headed back to town to tell the foreman.
=== Day 6 ===
We head back to town, takes all morning to get there. The other guys report to the foreman and I decided to interrogate the old lady. Oh, did I mention we picked her up on the way back. I gave her something to eat and put a cowl on her on account that it was cold enough to frost the sea. Turns out her people were just trying to frighten us off. I think I will carve her something if I get a chance, maybe after I take care of [[Lorenzo]]. Of course then Pontiffs shows up and starts screaming at the old lady, something about being a foolish back water heathen worshipping piss puddles in tree forts. I think he wants to raze the village. So could not get much out of the old lady after that.
That night [[Pontiffs Exorcistae|Pontiffs]] gave another sermon on the stump. Not sure if he is scaring or inspiring the works, not such which one he wants either sometimes. [[Thumor Brickshield|Thumor]] decided to play with his magic rock in the furnace. I am not sure were [[Bad Luck Bill]] was, maybe off doing forest got stuff or molesting some spritely forest dragons. I spent my time making a highly stylized replica of the old lady’s, er I mean, Thumor’s stick.
