Kira should take point, scouting for enemy encounters before they actually encounter the party. Either way, Silver has no hesitation about going in the direction of the kites/birds.

Considering the most common DnD issue of constant rescheduling due to players not making it, it's a reasonable tradeoff.

On the way into the little settlement, there is an utterly massive rib cage, maybe 18 or even 20 feet across, that the party could or would walk through to progress along the beach. It's white, bleached bones that progress for 60 feet with a backbone above and ribs to either side.

Beyond this are two little cottages, both with glass windows, dull grey-brown wood sides, and sheet metal roofs. The doors are wide open.

To the left and in the small harbor is a pier that leads out to a boat that's maybe 40 feet in length with a smoke-stack, a cabin in the front, and a railing on an upper level, painted white save a red ring at the top of the funnel. It is sunken in the water, though its deck is above the water. Fuel oil seems to have gathered around it.

The party can probably explore this location later if they so desired. Right now getting to those navy ponies takes priority. Silver is a bit on edge about the open doors, however. Kira takes an interest in the rib cage. Can she tell what it belonged to?

Why yes, yes they are.

No, it's not from any monster manual. Just a fantasy sea creature that's about the size of a Blue Whale and is carnivorus, like a sperm whale or orca

Seems like it crashed recently. Perhaps the commies came from there.
In that case, they might be desperate.
>>180017
I agree. Let's check out the settlement first. That way we can wait for the others to initiate combat.

Posey is rubbing herself on the leviathan bones, like it's a scratching post. She is very happy.

The bones are actually not very old, and were likely in a living creature earlier the same year.

>>180030
Mala comes up to the bones and sniffs them but seems cautious about the area more generally.

>>180028
Cabin one,

Open door. "Hybel en" written in block text above the door. Two bunk beds with a one bed made up with blankets and covers, two messy with blankets on the floor, and one mattress on a higher bunk knocked off the bed. There is a chest that is open with a heavy coat on the floor. There is a chair next to a desk, with a notebook on the desk, a lamp on the desk, a bowl, a couple open cans, and a massive (empty) container of vodka. There are notebook pages on the floor. This is what a cursory glance shows.

I was thinking that. Wildlife or necrophages could strip the carcass quickly.
Poor whale probably beached itself after being driven mad by naval sonar.

Posey encourages Mala, like she normally does.

But alas, he doesn't think he's getting souvenirs on this trip.

Cavalieri recognizes the language as a griffin language, albeit not one he is fluent in. There are some notes here that are very heavy in numbers. Then some written pages in the foreign language. There's... a map? That's what it looks like. Of the Rocky Sea.

Then there are two notes in the Ponish language, clearly ripped from a larger book.

>>180036
She does not.

There's a cottage that hasn't been searched, and beyond that, some kind of strange boiler unit with cylinders, and then a storage room

I'm more worried about getting them off the island and remaining alive to use them. Besides, I don't think Posey would take kindly to Dust yoinking her bones.
The visual of her rubbing against them like a cat is very cute though. Pic related

A whole pile of furs. A pallet of canned food that is mostly exhausted. Multiple oil drums that have a smell to them. And then more oil drums of a different color that presumably have fuel in them, or are empty.

>>180040
>Let's see if this ancient beast swallowed any cool treasure.
It seems very unlikely given its position that it simply died right there on the land and no one bothered to search its corpse. In fact, it's probably that it was placed there.
