An expedition with the "Seagull"

Desolate and abandoned, the evil alchemist’s mansion stands alone on the cliff, looking out towards the sea. Mysterious lights and ghostly hauntings have kept away the people of Saltmarsh, despite rumours of a fabulous forgotten treasure. What is its sinister secret?

Brax looks at the small campsite, before glancing at the trail to the creek. "Shall we go and check it out? Guther will organise the camp, of that I am certain." She lowers her head.

"Unless you are frightened of me.."

"My thoughts exactly." Brax grins at the Thief.

Gunter begins to pace the camp slowly, his eyes looking for any sign of recent tracks.

(Should I roll for anything?)

The tracks visible around the site are nothing special, mostly small animals using the land. There is one human track, however, leading towards the creek and back, and from the campsite in the direction of the sea. It looks to be about a day old.

Gunter catches Searos while he is looking around and relays this information to him. Pointing to the sea, he says, "Well looks like our mark moved off that way about a day ago."

He gazes up at the sky and shakes his head.

"It would be nice to be able to get moving and at least follow the trail a little more before the rain comes."

"I doubt we would find anywhere more suitable to camp.." Brax muses, "Perhaps we should set up a camp here and a few of us check the trail?"

"Not a bad idea...I think Searos wouldn't mind going along...Amon do you and Dogmeat want to come too?"

Amon looks up at the sky. "It is still pretty early, so why not? Come, Dogmeat! Let us be off then."

Gunter, Brax, Searos and Amon with Dogmeat follow the track Gunter found towards the cliffs, leaving Echo, Kim and Vee at the campsite.

The track follows something that is almost a path, not purposefully made for human use, but worn into the vegetation by people passing there. It leads towards the sea, to a cliff offering a breathtaking vista. The wind, much stronger than the day before, moves the sea. The tide is out at the moment, frothy waves lapping into the tidal pools at the bottom of the cliff, who are nestled between large boulders.

The not-quite-path makes a U turn and leads down the North side of the cliff, disappearing between rocks.

"Interesting, should we go inside? Gunter, do the tracks lead this way?" Brax asks, urging the group on, a little excited smile on her face.

"Well, from right here I don't see anywhere else he could have gone....unless he wanted to take a swim. Let's go and take a look at least."

"What I was hoping you'd say." She grins, patting his backside and letting Searos Lead.
