The main part of the party in Mended Horn is wrapping up a matter at an Abandoned Whaling/Sealing station... somewhat. Virgin Flame has made her return and is celebrating with exercise and tea after recovering an important marble statue head and vanquishing several amoebas in the process.

Correct! Looky there, back to normal. Dust reaches out a hoof and places it on the bat's withers, as a soft glow spreads from Dust's hoof to the bat's ears. At the same time, Brie can feel an energy radiating from the ground towards his ears.
>>181773
Dust nods
"For that I am glad to here
My plans went off the trail
Although bad my intentions appear
I am glad to hear you are not after my tail."

Brie breathes a sigh of relief, the ringing in his ears finally subsiding. "My good,..." he recalls the slight facial tick at 'Zebro', "Stallion, I can't thank you,... us Bats, we have such sensitive ears. Even with proper earplugs and ballistic sound suppression, I really prefer not to even use firearms if I can help it. I would opt for concussion grenades but for the same reason. It's a pity too, because the Master still won't teach me the secret of how to fight while blinded yet." He begins this little spiel going back to work on the safe, hoping that with the ringing gone the dice gods will remove the context-nerf that was cursing his skill checks.

In a corner of the boat somewhere, with nopony else around:

>>181799
As Posey finds her skull alone in some corner, it momentarily starts glowing, twin beams firing from its eyes as it animates with a sickening cackle, levitating in mid air.

For the first time in this game, Posey looks genuinely afraid.
"M-master, I...!"
The skull roars
"MAKING FRIENDS WE SEE! ART THOU HAVING FUN?!"
"M-m-master! I can can explai-"
"WHAT HAVE THOU CONQUERED, ROSEY RING?!"
"Master, it has been a week! Wars take ti-"
ENOUGH EXCUSES!!! MUCH WAS INVESTED IN THEE, RING! THE MAGIC ETCHED INTO THY FORTIFIED BONES IS NOT THYS, IT IS OURS!!!"
Posey collapses to the ground as the runes in her bones surge with power, cursed sigils writhing beneath her skin as she convulses like Reagan in the exorcist
She shrieks
"IT SEEMS AS THOU ARE UNWORTHY OF BEING OUR CREATION!!!"
"P-PLEASE HAVE MERCY!"
"MERCY?! MEEEEERCY?! DID WE TEACH THEE MERCY? LIKE THAT PALADIN THEE LET ESCAPE?!"
"I'M SORR-"
"AND WHERE ARE OUR TITHES!"
"Th.. The.. They are in the mail... I swear..!"
"WE DID NOT SEND THEE TO EQUESTRIA TO HAVE FUN, RING!"
"I... I can do bett-"
"UNWORTHY OF THE GIFTS WE HAVE GIVEN THEE! IT IS TIME THAT THY LEARNED TO EARN THY OWN POWER!"
(Posey is just sobbing at this point)
"THE GIFTS WE HAVE GIVEN THEE ARE HEREBY FORFEIT! DO NOT DISAPPOINT US AGAIN, MISS RING!"

And so, Posey is left in a groaning, smouldering heap, smoke rising off of the sores where her spellstitched runes burned themselves away. She takes several minutes to nurse her wounds before rejoining the party.

The shell is rather large, white in color, and has a number of concentric rings. There are pink stripes along the surface. It has something of a geometric pattern to the angles in the circles, which are not smooth save on the outer most layer, but have ridges that are more like a number of straight lines that turn, like a polygon rather than a circle.

Brie opens the safe to find that it is two levels. The top portion is empty. It’s possible that no one stored anything here, but somehow this seems less likely than any valuables being taken out.

In a lower, larger portion of the safe, Brie finds a single object.

It’s a harpoon head that is oddly wide, and oddly girthy.

May Kira make a listen check to see if she heard this, and came to investigate? Mostly just because Kira isn't doing anything else at the moment and I think it would be pretty interesting for the snej to watch from around the corner, but I don't want to if you feel like it would create problems.

A bead of aweat runs down his brow as he takes his leather/composite mask as a makeshift pouch.
