Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ A completely different ship, in fact ]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

[I wish to investigate the new ship!]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ It's quite grand! The style of it slightly differs mostly in the framing and otherwise minor details. That dragon at the front sure is impossible to not notice, and it's not as if its purple sails, currently hanging down uselessly. ]

[ Of course the useless bit might have something to do with that gigantic hole in the side of the boat, revealing its interior. ]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

Ahh, what the hell happened here?

[Trying to see if he can figure out what damaged the ship? :o]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ From the looks of the scattered bits around, it looks as if the ship took repeated blows to that spot again and again before it shattered. ]

[ There are some piles of wood and tools nearby, but it seems no one's working on it right now. ]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

[I... guess... I could try to fix the ship. :|a]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ How good of a repairman are you anyways? ]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

[Decent. Nothing too stellar but strong and such.]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ The ship looks seaworthy once more! In fact, even with how obvious the fix is compared to the rest of the vessel, it's hardly a bother at all! ]

[ From behind you a girl's voice echoes. ]

Oh! You fixed it! That's fantastic!

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

[Turns around at the sound!]

Ehh?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ There is a girl beaming brightly at you. Her accent is mostly British, and yet something more lilting edges on it. ]

We were at a loss over how to fix it ourselves! It's been a bothersome thing, being stuck out here. I should let the others know.

Might I have your name, good sir?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

Ahh, Night. Who are you and where is this?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

I'm Lucy! It's a pleasure to meet you.

[ She smiles brightly, taking his hands in a friendly grip. Her hands are warm. ]

I wish I could explain more, but this island is where my brother, sister, and Caspian were stranded some time ago.

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

What happened to the ship? And where's everyone else?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

It took one too many hits from the storm, I'm afraid.

The others are washing up at the waterfall further in. They should be out in a moment if you'd like to meet them. Oh! [ She looks eagerly up. ] Would you like to come with us to our destination?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

Ahh, where are you going?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

To the center of here, of course!

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

What's in the center?

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

My other brother, of course! He's always wandering here and there, but it's easy to find him where we're going usually.

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

[Ohhhhh.]

All right. I'll come with you guys.

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ She claps her hands together. ]

Wonderful! Just a moment and I'll grab the others. You're welcome to board while waiting.

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

Wait. I have something for you first.

[Holds out hand to offer boost seed.]

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

Hm? What's that?

[ She picks the seed out of your hand, holding it up to the light, then jumps as it sinks into her hand. ]

--Oh!

Re: LONE ISLAND

[stigmateyes]

We're supposed to use them to help things.

Re: LONE ISLAND

[dramatispersonae]

[ She shakes her hand out, looking it over. ]

I've never seen that before. But thank you! [ She smiles brightly, nods, and heads off into the jungle. ]

[ Not long after come a few other people along with the girl, all of them dressed in loose shirts and general sailor's clothes. ]
