Tori leads her noble vessel north, as the admiral commands. Perhaps her smaller ship will be better able to navigate the hazards of these waters, and discover what the larger ships cannot.

But it will require the utmost caution navigating, so Tori is on deck and vigilant.

((Performing Exploration action, with drilling bonus. +3 points of glory.))

Ran was not far from her captain, tending to the boat and the crew, as per her position. She was excited for the exploration, and looked out toward the horizon to take in a breath.

Taking Stingray North they soon could see the northern horizon lined with mists as far as their eyes could see. But before them, there were razor sharp rocks and keel-killing shallows to brave...

Quote:
Mechanics of sailing North

To cross the shipwrecking area requires undertaking an Exploration action and a Cooperative Roll of Intelligence/Sailing vs. TN50 between the Captain and the First Mate. Way of the Land for Kameyama Jima of the leader of the roll and Seasoned Sailors (as an alternative to their normal use) on the ship feature provide a FR each. For each full increment of 5 the roll fails the ship loses 1 point of Capacity that is understood as damage to the hull (so Cook cannot prevent it) but can still sail in either direction - toward the safer shores or into the mist - if the impact doesn't sink it. If more than one ship sails, the one who has succeeded the roll may convey a FR on the next one which hasn't rolled yet.

Preceding Repair actions have no effect, but Repairs can be undertaken immediately after sustaining damage by applying Repair via normal actions or Shipwrights.

Other conditional FRs to the roll may be awarded depending on the composition of the sailing team..

As the ship approaches the worst of the shoals, Tori directs spotters along the deck, and above. They've drilled these comms extensively. This crew has to work as one, or this isn't going to work.

She stands by the wheel, but isn't steering herself this time. She can't afford the distraction as she takes in all the reports, giving course corrections to helm. This is going to be close...

((Lore: Nature/Air preceding Sailing, VP, FR for TN, TN45: 10d10o10k5 39, failed mastery.
Sailing, VP, +1 from Ran, FR from seasoned sailors, TN45: 9d10o10k5+1 48, pass!))

Ran aids where she can, directing but not superseding the captain's command. She inwardly winces as they pass the shipwrecks around them, but seem to make through unscathed, with Fortune's blessing them.
