    Open Nine Rows of Teeth

    That thing in the water had resembled Tempestarii fables of old: sleeping gods of the sea who fled the stars in the Mother's Tears, creatures that superseded the natural order of this world. Kaina heard tell of them in the flotilla, but imagined them as fancies to keep the children tethered to...

    Private Bivouac [dropped]

    "Shit," the lad spat, feet padding down the hard-waxed deck. He slid hands along the mast, fingering the netting, squinting deep at the fabric. Sure enough, it near glistened. A fresh cut of cloth adorned the beam, all sung pride and taut eagerness. Even the hemp that bound it had none of the...

    "I'm sorry," Kaina said, "are you talking to me or having a fucking fit?" Kaina's head whipped around, directing that scowl the waterlogged man's way. His mood, well past ripe to the point of souring, dampened much alike to the man's shaggy mane. Were it not for the violent jittering that shook...

    Private Sunk [dropped]

    Rounding the south-eastern tip of Unicorn's Bay, a day's sail from the Altalusian harbor, the Boilbilge skirted the shallows of a small island chain that boasted little in the way of foliage. Open sea cased the eye in every direction but one; aftside of the scavenger bilge sat a large, pointed...

    The makings of an awkward grin slipped from the young Kaina's face, twisted into an open-mouthed grimace as he turned his appraisal to the blue woman. "Who told you that," he asked, near choking on the venom that welled in his throat, "my aged fucking grandmother?" It took considerable...

    Private Bivouac [dropped]

    Drunk on the rushed fervor of fresh adventure, Kaina tugged free the knot mooring the skiff to the Embrace. He tossed the rope onto the deck and summarily followed, the soft hemp of his sandals thudding against wood. A grunt sufficed the exertion; he swayed at the hips, stretching out hands to a...

    Private Bivouac [dropped]

    Rain pittered down amidst a gray dawn that idled about the dockside district of the Kharsagan Embrace. Dozens of vessels lapped with the waves, moored and stagnant with nary a sailor in view. Laborers took to the morning with alacrity, rushing to tarp goods left out overnight and board up...

    Kaina recoiled from the sudden onslaught of company. Any hopes of a quiet morning (at least, quiet as reasonably expected amongst the feeders' chittering ensemble) dashed themselves against the shoals of reality. He scowled, brows furrowed at once as shield from the glaring sun and to express...

    Open Enter the Boilbilge [dropped]

    High dawn crooked a yellow tide smile over distant seawalls half a day's skim out from Old Vapna, rumored seat of an ancient hubris. Little remained of note to survey beyond the waves. Brine lapped wildly, churning loud amidst a forest of sails; the feeders had set out to play. Bottomfeeders...

    Kaina Wendreef [/imgright] Once a proud Navigator in training of Kharsagan stock, a student of the School of Stars, the eldest of the Wendreef siblings fell from grace having abandoned his people, his home, and, on good rapport, his wits. Kaina Wendreef, firstborn of the Embrace-side branch of...
