**Episode 1:**

**The Wistal Whistles find themselves in the Coastal Port town of Distance, at the Eastern end of Ballentia, perched on the edge of the Seas of Meygas. The town is in serious money trouble as their fishing boats aren’t always coming back to port. Called in by the mayor Benedict Orez, they are put to the task of figuring out why and whether it has anything to do with the rumours of a ship eating monster at sea.**

**The Wistal Whistles meet the residents of Distance to get as much information as possible before taking to the sea. They bump into Sirip Orez, former Mayor of Distance and visit Silver Liar the local drunken storyteller and Teiluj Telupac, the misfortunate lady with the misshapen face before meeting Captain ‘Ole Maps’ Atlas and taking to the sea on The Jolly Wanderer.**

**Episode 2:**

**So last time on Part One of “Adrift on Ruined Seas” the Wistal Whistles went on an information gathering trip around town, now they’re out on the Sea of Meygas on The Jolly Wanderer under the confident control of the bushy bearded if somewhat damp Captain ‘Ole Maps’ Atlas. Headed towards the Wilde Isles, they’re about to meet it’s rather “attractive?” resident Keevra and get more information about this mystery. The team get their first taste of combat of the mini series and nudity happens… for some reason.**

**Episode 3:**

**The Wistal Whistles are about to come face to face with an angry Captain Oemor Eugetnom who has two of them chained to a pole, one of them drowning and another pretty beaten up! Will they be able to survive? Can they break the curse? Will the mystery ship The Desmayn reappear? Will they be able to save the town of Balance once and for all? Too many questions are left unanswered and we’re not going to give you any hints, you’re just going to have to listen and find out.**

Just the usual mystery solving with monsters stuff but I like to be upfront and keep my players safety in mind at all times. Any questions regarding this, please ask. Also this session, being with level 7 characters is a bit more advanced so some basic prior knowledge is advised.**
