There was the sound of breaking glass, Judith was frightened by the smashing glasses, Jeremy was smashing the bottles and glasses completely filled with rage.

“That sneaky little, no-good, Woodland-Elf, son of a bitch, no more like son of a..MOTHER FU-” Jeremy was then slapped by Livia, she then grabbed him by the collar and made sure that he was calm and wouldn’t throw another bottle.

“Jeremy, listen to me, we are going to get her back, ok?” she said.  “We’ll follow Vinea, get to the Triangle, save Safie, destroy the stone, and kill that viking bastard.” Jeremy brushed her arms off of his collar, and walked towards the door.  Their boat was there with something extra on the doc. There was a note from Vladegast, it read; Sorry, forgot to tell you about my friend, Vinea, she’s a feisty elf she is.  Anyway, just thought you’d like to know about her.  Small talk obviously wasn’t a strong thing for him.  

“Where is the Triangle?” Shanel asked.

“Well, if the wind is on our side and the tide kicks in, should be two clicks north.” Orlfam answered.  They rode with the tide, and the wind blew in their direction, but it also blew them in the direction of an unexpected storm, lightning struck the sky with thunder following, heavy rain came pouring down on them, the wind blew harder and the waves rose higher causing the ship to move uncontrollably.  Orlfam held onto the helm tightly and moved with the waves. Darin and Aquarile pulled the sails down, keeping them tight and steady. Livia and Jeremy worked together to keep the supplies on the boat. Shanel and Arlon worked up on the masts, adjusting the sails when necessary and trying not to fall off the mast.  And Sola, kept Orlfam from falling off the boat and everything that was needed on the helms doc. A massive wave came towards their vessel.

“IN COMING!!!” Orlfam shouted, everyone got down, once the wave hit, they all were spitting water from their mouths so they could breathe, but Aqaurile just stood there and breathed like normal.  

“Are we there yet?” Shanel shouted impatiently.

“Hard to tell ’cause of the bloody weather, we could be a thousand miles away from it.” Orlfam said, he turned the boat a little to the left and dodged a giant rock, there was a strange rumble in the water, it wasn’t the roar of thunder nor the slap of the sea, it was something else, the sound came again.

“What was that?” Arlon asked.

“Leviathan?” asked Orlfam.

“We killed the last one.” Darin answered. The roar came again, Aquarile felt cold and afraid.

“Nifer-tatilty. Nifer-tatilty!!” she shouted in her native tongue.  She then fell to the floor of the boat, her feet turned back into a fish tail, she then flopped in panic, Darin and Sola tried their best to get her back up and have feet again.  

“What’s the matter, Aquarile?” Sola asked.

“Nifer-tatilty. Nifer-tatilty!!” she repeated.  The boat then came to a stop, the wind still blew the waves kept moving, but their boat didn’t move with them.  

“That can’t be good.” Livia said.  Rising from the water was a giant, scaly, sharp toothed monster, and it was in fact a Leviathan.

“Oh...crap.” said Jeremy.  The beast let out a loud roar and slammed it’s tentacle downwards nearly breaking the boat in half.

“Try that again!” Darin shouted.  “This ship was built to take on the might of a giant, you’re gonna have to do more than that, you overgrown sea lizard!” the beast roared again, it lead its teeth towards him and tried to eat him whole, Sola jumped in the way and pushed Darin out of the way, no one got eaten, she then drew her sword and struck it at the head of the Leviathan, it screamed in pain as it waved its tentacles around everyone maneuvered around dogging the tentacles, Aquarile kept lying down on the floor and panicked, one tentacle was falling down upon her, Jeremy jumped towards her, grabbed his staff and held the tentacle up, preventing it from killing her.
