"Deck of Disaster Part 4"

"Thus concludes the Deck of Disaster Arc! " - Deck of Disaster Part 4
== Plot Synopsis ==
The group, after looking for hours for a boat, finally finds someone willing to take them with them. Upon arriving on the ship, the group is taken to a "party", consisting of sheep and a shepherd. In their search of the shady man, the group stumbles upon someone lighting something on fire, for then to ask for payment to put it out. Ashe, however, puts it out herself with one of Kier's inventions - while Markus is frolicking in the flames.
Continuing towards the deck, the group is stopped by two Alarani guards, which the group has to fight to get past. Gregor defeats one smashing his book at his head, while Kier, after Ashe and the other guard switches talents, kicks the other.
Upon arriving on the higher deck, Ashe and Gregor switches talents, just as they spot the shady man they had been looking for. The man summons a gorilla, who then grabs Markus and drags him away to fight him, with Gregor tailing behind to help. Ashe and Kier tries to face the man, but finds out that it would be impossible as the man used one of the cards of the deck, "The Hunter", granting him a sword that can't be blocked.
After resolving the situation with the gorilla, Markus, Gregor and the gorilla returns to battle scene. They create a distraction, where Kier tries to seduce the shady man, followed by Gregor trying to shoot a fireball with Ashe's powers, but failing. As the man is distracted with Gregor's failed move, Markus shoots eyebeams through Kier's hair, targeting the man's eyes, which ends up as the final move.
Now with the cards to fulfil the contract, the group decides to burn the cards, and gathers up the ashes to give to Rat. The arc ends with the group absconding with the items they were promised upon completion of their contract.
