[Rollo here. The rest of Fenrir's attack on the "The Uncultured Strumpet" I learned from a salty sea dog of my acquaintance.]
''
Ahh-Harrr! Thank ye kindly my lord, there is nothing I like more than a mug of grog! Well anywhere, where was I? Oh aye, the lad Cooper, young Cooper, that's right. A fine young man, such a shame he fell in with that bad lot on the "Strumpet". Mebbie it was just as well it was attacked by that demon, or whatever it was.
Aye, so my young mate Cooper was getting drunk with the others on deck. He didn't like that some of the others were flogging a merchant captain who was tied to the main mast and a couple of others were debauching his daughters, but there wasn't much he could do about it.
He was on the other side of the deck when the demon started attacking one of the other pirates in one of the forward lockers. The pirate had taken one of the wenches in there to do what pirates do to wenches, but he was attacked by an invisible force and thrown out the window. Me mate called this pirate Mr Plums, he was one of the midshipmen. Well, he lands in the water, then an invisible thing lands in the water beside him.
Well, Mr Plums maybe saw this, but nobody else did. The others went to throw him a rope, but then all hell broke loose. Me mate Cooper says a dark figure, shrouded in a cape of leathery wings was flying around in the rigging, blasting the pirates in waves of green fire that literly melted the flesh from their bones!
Cooper is a brave lad though, and he ran to one of the ballistas, of which they had four on the deck, and with some of the others began to load them.
Another pirate called Mr Spotty had a Wand of Silence which he used on the demon, but it did nothing to halt the attack. The Captain himself, evil old Cap'n Knackers had a Wand of Magic Missile and managed to hit the demon with it a few times before he was killed.
Brave Cooper fired the Ballista - and missed! He must have cursed his luck because it was an easy shot that he had thought impossible to miss, but the demon was protected by some sinister shimmering magic as well as everything else.
Cooper and one of his pals reloaded their ballista again. More bolts were shot from the other weapons but they all missed as well. The demon continued to sweep the deck of pirates, killing them like flies as more came up from the hold to join the battle. It was carnage.
Why thank you my lord. More grog! Arr!
