Background
A group of travelers sailing from the Dimelivean port-city of Northwater to the Reverean city of Bamborough. Captain "Ricksaw" of The Longbow had sailed the route many times, and needed little assistance to navigate the journey. The trip cost 4 gold (food and drink not included) and was said to take 4 days, but favorable winds had cut that down by a half-day. The contents of the ship's cargo are not disclosed to the passengers or even most of the crew. The session began on the last night of their voyage, as they expected to be reaching Bamborough possibly before sunrise.

Summary
On the Ship
In the midst of night the travelers gathered on the deck of the ship to watch the arrival to port. However they were met with a thick fog that obscured their vision and prevented them from seeing far beyond the ship's bow. They retreated to the inside of the ship where a fight between Richard Miller and a sailor took place at the bar. Richard won the fight, and the party returned to the deck of the ship to the sound of ringing bells. A second ship was spotted vaguely through the fog, and Jordel recognized the sails to be a Reverean fleet ship. The ship opened fire with cannons and disabled the steering of the ship forcing it to crash into a rock and throwing Richard Miller into the mast knocking him out. As the ship was sinking, Slackjaw simply grabbed his fishing rod from his room and abandoned ship, swimming to shore with ease. Ralo ripped off a wooden plank from the ship's stairs to use as a raft for him and Jordel. Richard was awoken by a near miss with a cannon ball and made his way to finally abandon ship as well.
Treading Water
After the ship sank, Ralo and Jordel were doing their best to stay above water. Jordel, being significantly lighter with less equipment, had little trouble staying afloat. Ralo needed to drop is Leather Armor and Climbers Kit to swim to the surface and reach Jordel. Richard had to abandon his two gallons of ale that he had on his person, in order to swim to the surface. After doing so he was treading water passed
