Quoted By:
You decide to buy some things for your ship and crew, buying two small cannons, which can be carried by a strong man and fired from the deck on a swivel or shot below decks, some powder and shot, more then enough muskets and axes, hammocks for comfort, and some beachgrass seeds as well as your father's corals, plus some other stuff.
<span class="mu-r">"Squint, how goes it?"</span> You say.
"With the money you gave me for supplies, we have about <span class="mu-s">two weeks worth of supplies</span> In Sweetwater and Saltcakes. It's not much, but that's less 'cuz of the budget and more because the ship is full up and can't carry that much. Though i suppose we could just eat some of the beachgrass seeds if we got stranded."
<span class="mu-r">"Ayy, let's not have that happen on our first voyage. That should be enough to reach a friendly port..."</span>
You talk to your First-Mate, Bones, and ask him about navigation. He tells you he doesn't know much. Uh oh. Maybe you could have seen this coming...
Truthfully, you don't have a great grasp of the sea, nor do you have a quality map, as such, one scrawled by a local will have to do. It's not much and 100% inaccurate, but everything here is within a nearby sailing distance. You also won't be able to know <span class="mu-i">how fast</span> you can travel without a sextant or how to <span class="mu-i">sail beyond</span> eyesight of islands without a compass.
Where would you like to go?
>Good Teeth Island
>Mistress Island
>To the Fruit Barons
>To the Green Waters
