After the party first met her Sunraya Whittle was an enigma. Nothing obviously wrong with her there lies the problem of why she doesn’t want to fall asleep. But let’s not tally any longer and get on the trail of this curse.
So sit back, have a no-doze and let’s crack onto tonight’s adventure!
Sunraya Whittle
512TuSuWh
The party looked at Sunraya, the girl that they found stumbling through the streets, and were shocked at her fight to stay awake. From what they could tell there was no sign of poison, curse or magic that was cast upon the girl to cause her to fear going to sleep. While they examined her parents and the other villagers they all appeared, on the majority, in fine health except for their slow heart beat, slow shallow breaths and dead-like appearance.
Sunraya’s biggest complaint was the hunger. She said that she had been waiting for the merchants to come back so she could trade fish for food that she would eat. Unlike everyone else in the village who had feasted on the freshly caught Laun fish she hated everything about the delicate meat.
So as she didn’t like the fish that the village caught she had been resolute in her belief that the merchant folk would return and she would trade the fish for something edible. However, by time she changed her resolve and decided that even if she hated it she needed to eat the fish – it was all gone. Gobbled up by gulls, cats and other creatures.
So she had survived of what little food stuffs she could find around the village but that was running low. It wasn’t until the party had seen a fish trap bobbing in the water that their luck turned around. Hauling out the twisted reed basket they found it had a few fish and a crab within. Sunraya, while she dislike the taste of fish, was appalled at the though of eating the crab and decided to eat the fish once grilled.
Mild and flaky was the flavour with a touch of natural saltiness which highlighted its appeal with the broader market of people. Yet after their meagre meal the party let Sunraya fall asleep, exhausted but now – watched over by them. That was until they detected the faint magical presence descend upon her as her colour drained, her breathing shallowed and her heart started to beat slower and slower.
With that the only lead that the party had drifted into a dead like sleep. Except for the meagre scraps of the fish that she had consumed as her last meal.
Thanks for visiting tonight to look at something that I now remember I touched upon a few adventures (last year I believe) ago. Never the less! This week we will continue and explore what lies ahead for the port village of Launghui. So don’t forget to come back daily to stay up to date and lastly, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
