Bayou Garramarisma
A blue eye peered through the one socket in a thick, cumbersome helmet to watch deckhands and guards set up a rudimentary camp near the gutted corpse of a small ship that had run aground. A man with a leather cap decorated with an old feather tightly held onto a ledger as he barked orders to the crew who stomped around detritus scattered about the mire.
Little had changed for the surviving prisoners except that their confines below deck were replaced with fresh air and sunlight. Vyke discovered during the last several minutes that he preferred being shackled and miserable under the sun with a light breeze to being shackled and miserable in the dark belly of a ship that stank of excrement and other foul odors.
Vyke, along with the other poor sods crammed into a hastily constructed cage, startled at the sudden blaring of a horn.
"Attack! We're under attack!" A voice sounded from the treeline, and then a wave of naga emerged and descended upon the half-made encampment, and guardsmen and sailors rushed with swords and improvised weapons in hand to meet them.
