Final: Blue

The siege continues. Crabs, giant squids, shark head beasts, all continue out of the sea. The islanders are in good spirits though and everyone pulls their weight. Traps are set, settlements defended. Some of the older islanders have taken it upon themselves to make sure everyone is fed and rested and so in quiet moments those who cannot fight are sent with packs of foods to give to those patrolling and guarding.

Those voidtreckers who don't know how to rest may find themselves practically kidnapped by a well meaning islander and forced to eat and sleep.

All the time the sky is getting darker, the seas rougher.

Day Ten

Just after dawn on day ten the storm breaks. Crashing thunder, lightning and roiling seas. The water swirls and seems to rise, it is rising, up and up a wave so high that you may fear that when it breaks it could swallow the island whole.

But it doesn't break, instead twists, taking form. A huge towering beast made of water and sand. A hand swipes down over a patch of beach, a wall of water to knock any fighters off their feet.

Around the same time, those not busy being attacked by the water monster will notice their SCA's light up and a screen appear. They might hear some familiar voices.

It seems there is more than fighting a monster to be done!

Beacon Building

Assuming the information is given those of the island will suggest the best place for a beacon to be built- the cliffs are the highest point on the island.

It will be hard work lugging wood up there in a storm, not to mention actually building and lighting a fire as cloud is low, rain is heavy and the wind is high.

"Oh... Yes." He knew what a prayer was, just not exactly what she had been meaning but her words do help explain it. Pour their thoughts into what they wanted, which was to see everyone safe.

"That might work, if we pray... or wish together around the fire." Even if they couldn't quite get it lit properly.

"We can do it, somehow...we'll just need to ask everyone for help."

Mami looks up at their work in progress. "You think we could fit a canopy above it? Or hold an umbrella until the fire is lit?"

"A canopy might work." He nodded, thinking of things that might work. Even blankets would keep off the worst of the rain whilst they got a spark going.

"The wind might make it difficult though."
