Revenge of the Snake Things

In the middle of the night, we were awakened by an awful sound. From the hold, it sounded like the moaning of the damned! Worse, it was accompanied by an even more wretched smell.

Investigating cautiously, hands covering our noses in a vain attempt to ward off the evil odors, we quickly realized the problem. The snake things devoured by the kobolds had made them all very sick. Relieved that it was nothing more serious than a little case of food poisoning, we were dismayed to realize that our rowers were incapacitated. The ship will go nowhere until they are well! I actually began to feel sorry for them. Strange as they are, they have kept their bargains with us (so far).

Still, the smell is most foul! I can not wait to get back to the tower--at least it does not smell like kobold sick!
