Titan Hunt RolePlay

Set on the South-Eastern part of Swirling Mist Isle, a group of mainly LSPP and neutral ponies arrives to take part in the hunt to rid Tranquility Harbour of the Titan Silzith who has terrorised the area ever since the tsunamis caused by Kei-Ahi hit Swirling Mist Isle. They arrive at the Ceruville dock on the far eastern side of Swirling Mist, and must make a journey overland (heavy mist prevents flying) to Coral Haven which lies around 110 miles distant.

Swirling Mist Isles: Into the Mists RP3

Viridian Knight Girith Amarth leads a mission to the Swirling Mist Isles (home of MerPony Aphrodite) on behalf of LSPP, in order to hunt a Titan that is terrorising the local MerPony population and preventing use of the main Harbour. He is also under instructions to oversee the repairs to the destroyed village of Shell Sands, led by Head Carpenter Dudette.

The ponies reach the House of Mists Inn where they eat and rest. Many replace their cloth cloaks and bags with waterproof items and stock up with dried food and herbs for the journey. The next day the group leaves for the Misty Woods. They are passed by a black Pegasus who is running items remade out of the discarded cloaks of travelers from the House of Mists Inn to Coral Haven where they are sold for a profit. Trailing the group at a distance to keep an eye on them is Shaman Coriolus, who is a very conservative anti-Elemental local Seer who is suspicious of the group.

The group become tired and lost trying to find a way out of the Misty Woods. Girith instructs them to make camp and wait whilst he and Affy look for a path out. As they do so they are ambushed by four MerPony bandits who demand their gold and jewellery, which they refuse to hand over. One bandit wounds Girith with a knife, and Water Elemental Archie acts to protect Affy from a fireball attack. Girith uses twilight magic to incapacitate two ponies, whilst Archie frightens the others. The bandits flee, Girith and Affy then locate a path out of the Wood, then Girith tows an exhausted Affy back to camp, where he is treated for a deep cut and exhaustion.

Traveling out of the Woods, the group reach a bog they must cross. A dirty Kirin mare named Calliope is found wounded by the side of the path. She tags along with the group then becomes stuck in the treacherous bog. The group rescues her, then moving on they find some scattered items which have been left by the death of another pony who sank into the bog earlier. Archie identifies the vanished pony as the Black Pegasus the group saw earlier, who was running goods from Ceruville to Coral Haven. An Item drop takes place here.

Reaching the top of the bog where the Leaning Stone is, the ponies have a short rest, then continue on downwards toward Coral Haven, crossing agricultural land. Conditions become more pleasant, until finally they reach Coral Haven itself. Shaman Coriolus is still on the group's trail, but he has had to avoid the bog and being slower is now quite far behind them.

Once in Coral Haven the group get cleaned up at the Dew Drop Inn, Affy reunites with her sister Ianthe and the whole group is invited to the upcoming wedding of Ianthe to LSPP Legionnaire, Sergeant Akhenaten, which is to be held the following week.

Captains Bluebottle and Glowstorm inspect the vessels they are to hunt the Titan in, but find them to be far smaller and in a state of disrepair, not what they were led to believe by the town's Mayor Poseidon. The boats, the Rusty Reel and Hairy Clam, are inspected by the captains who meet their first mates. After some reluctance the first mates agree to crew the vessels provided they are repaired. The repairs are organised and will take 10 days to complete.

The group decide to travel via River Boat to the Golden Temple near Shell Sands.
