[Closed] Souls for soles

[lezard_valeth]

Characters: Lily Ivory and Lezard Valeth
Location: Maine
Rating: PG-13?
Time: August 12th, noon
Description: Red-skinned whales have been eating fisherman, and it's time to track them down and clean them out!



Many missions required investigation, tracking skills and overall knowledge of the immediate land. But what was one to do when faced with a foe that lived in the sea? Do they get their hands on a boat and risk the lives of the captain and their crew? Surely none were foolish enough to offer their aid, but Lezard wasn't exactly a bleeding heart. If they wished to be eaten, who was he to say no?

Then there was the risk of soaked pages in his Weapon form. The mage frowned at the thought, but he supposed such things were par for the course when you didn't turn into a blade or something along those lines.

"...I suppose we'll swim and hope we bump into a whale," he offered loftily with a grin, shrugging.

Lily scoffed at the suggestion. "I didn't bring a swimsuit. Besides, you know very well I can't swim."

Walking to the end of the pier, she looked out at the Atlantic. Despite the fact that the waters should have been dotted with sailboats and fishing charters at this time of year, all that was visible was a lone sailboat. Apparently, the tales of bloodthirsty whales had scared off most vacationers. A boat rental business down the beach didn't seem to be having any luck, a dozen unrented boats tied up to their docks. And the fishing charter place they had passed earlier had a sign on the door saying they were closed indefinitely. The cry of gulls and splashing of the waves were much more audible than the laughter of children and their families playing on the beach.

"I reckon trying to row out there on our own isn't practical either." Unlike Lezard, she wouldn't want to risk others in their hunt. "Was there any mention of the closest this critter has come to land?"
