[340] [061] [165] First blood

I had to flip a coin to break yesterday's tie, but the Queen of England says you should fight some pirates! I should get an icon or something if I'm going to keep doing this.

You draw your swords and run down on to the beach hoping to catch the Pirates off guard. You manage to cut two down before they are able to draw their cutlasses and then you each fight two of the remaining four at the same time.

First PIRATE (Skill 7, Stamina 7)
Second PIRATE (Skill 8, Stamina 6)

And then there was a fight, which you handled skillfully and without problem, because you're a big badass.

You look round to see Mungo fighting the last remaining pirate - the captain! Before you can help him, the captain lunges forward, piercing poor Mungo through the chest. He lets out an anguished cry and drops on to the golden sand in a crumpled heap. The captain turns to face you, a grotesque sneer on his face, distorted by a long black scar running down the left side. You charge at the captain, seeking to avenge Mungo.

PIRATE CAPTAIN (Skill 10, Stamina 6)

This fight was a little tougher and you wound up losing like 6 stamina points out of 18 in the process, but life goes on!

The sand all around Mungo is red with blood. You kneel down beside him and gently lift his head in your arms. His eyes open a little and he manages a half-smile despite his agony. In a whisper he says, 'Well, we got them, but a lot of good it did me. Make sure you get the Lizard King for me, won't you?' Then his eyes close and he slumps down dead. You bury him on the beach near the cliff, marking the grave with his sword skewered into the sand. You see a narrow goat-track leading up the side of the cliff and then look back at the chest lying on the beach.
