Looking forward to figuring out the truth!

Part 4: Is that Baron's?
</p>
<p>There&;s been no word of the Baron or the pirates, either Dorian or Lucy, for a few days now. Dorian hasn&;t updated his blog, and after the initial vaguely threatening voicemail, you&;ve hear nothing from Lucy either. It doesn&;t come as a relief though, far from it. The mystery dogs at you. What happened? A kidnapped shark, a stolen hat...</p>
<p>Who do you believe? Can you believe either of them?</p>
<p>These are the questions you ask yourself as you travel to the sandy beaches of Delphi. Here, surrounded by the ocean&;s embrace you wonder if being closer to water will help you think about the whole ordeal. A few times as you walk the beach you swear you see the shadow of sails out on the horizon. Maybe it&;s your imagination. Maybe you&;re just seeing things. Or maybe you&;re being stalked by a pirate captain who seems to think you had something to do with kidnapping and theft.</p>
<p>The visit to Delphi so far hasn&;t turned up much. It was a long shot though. Where could you go next? The Omen Islands? They are known for pirates. You&;re not even sure how you can get there...</p>
<p>Just as you&;re about to give up hope though... there in the sands, waves licking at it as if trying to draw it back into the sea... is a glass bowl. A helmet. One that looks quite a bit like the Baron&;s! Is it his? Is he here? Did he go into the ocean? Willingly? Or forced?</p>
<p>Your mind races with questions as you try and figure out what your next move will be.</p>
<p>
oh how exciting!!! Then what happens? :)
poor baron. i hope he's ok!
Anon, apologies for not being able to post parts 3 and 4 of the story so far; I've been quite ill for the last few weeks and the time I'm able to spend on the site is quite limited as of late.
I really appreciate you sending me the continued parts of the story, but if it will help save you a bit of sP, you don't have to keep on sending these to me. I will follow the story and the blog to the best of my ability when I am able, so as long as others are able to post the continuations on this thread.
I hope Baron's okay!
Eeek whatever will happy to Baron?! Is that his helmet?! I don't trust either pirate at this point :o
Join my ping group to get notified of new wears. Buying mage amulets for 5 csc each, comment me to sell.
Newest releases:
Back to the motherland! Or, er... motherocean..? I keep thinking about the Sponge Bob episode where he and Patrick visit Sandy and eventually have to wear the fishbowl helmets so they don't dry out. My point is, this shark is smart. I love him and will protect him with my life. As soon as I find him...
I was nervous when I saw the item image when I opened the box! Hope Baron Bitey went willingly and no one forced the poor thing to do anything it doesn't want to do.
Getting some Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego vibes now, haha. Looking forward to the next installment!
Message
After finding the helmet your search for the Baron hasn&;t turned up anything else. You&;ve walked up and down the beach all day. Dusk has arrived and night is fast approaching. Soon it&;ll be too dark out to really see anything. Ever since the sun began to set the sensation of being watched has only continued to increase.</p>
<p>Exhausted you sit down on an outcropping of rocks by the shore and contemplate the stars beginning to blink into existence across the sky. You hope the Baron is okay. At this point you don&;t want to find him for either of those two pirates. You want to find him and bring him home. You shift where you sit to fins a more comfortable position on the cool rocks and feel something poke you. Frowning you pick it up.</p>
<p>A tooth. A shark tooth. Is it the Baron&;s?! Or is this just a coincidence? Before you can think on it any longer a sudden wave of exhaustion sweeps over you. You feel your eyes slide shut.. and you fall into a deep... deep slumber...</p>
<p>You&;re in the ocean, standing on top of it. The water feels almost solid beneath your feet. Before you floating in the surf is a hat. Black with strips of gold and ruby brocade and the prettiest white plumes. You seem to recall something about a missing hat. You reach down to pick it up but before you get to it two other hands appear to get it.</p>
<p>One belongs to a fierce looking woman, hard of face and very stern. She has the look of a Queen and a Scoundrel. You can tell that it&;s blood steeped in years of tradition that runs through her veins.</p>
<p>The other belongs to a young man, bright eyed and naive. He&;s full of the fire of youthful passion and energy. You get the impression that he makes a lot of mistakes but you can&;t have innovation without that.</p>
<p>...up...</p>
<p>You take a step back and watch them squabble over the hat. There&;s someone else here too... Off in the distance and glowing brightly is the largest shark you&;ve ever seen floating gently in the air. He&;s watching the two pirates as well, and somehow he looks... rather... sad...</p>
<p>...ake...up...</p>
<p>There&;s meaning behind all of this! You&;re sure...</p>
<p>">WAKE UP!
Thanks for posting the 5th part ❤️ I was just about to do it when I got on and saw the box :)
