When the teams enters the Pirate's heart, there is a moment of choking darkness, threatening to strangle the life out of people, but it soon ebbs and a wailing wind shatters the silence.

You find yourselves on a vast, dry rubble-strewn wasteland being battered by winds that alternated between needle-sharp, wet cold and dry, furnace-like blasts of heat. There's a sense despite how extremely unpleasant it is that it will not harm the group, but it is trying to discourage them from exploring too thoroughly within the heart.

Above the wasteland is a dark sky utterly devoid of celestial bodies, and of such a uniform blackness that it strains the eyes to stare too long, and would no doubt incite artists into feuds over it's unnatural hue.

The only thing that broke the stark black sky is a long, ash-gray ship with a skull upon it's bow, bristling with cannons that swivel and pivot, searching for something.

The wind changes again, the lilting sound of music coming from one direction, and the sound of creaking from another.

Ah crap.

[Okay but CAN Stoat access and mess with the guns' operations if it continues with the subversion plan?]
totalmisplay: (Nope. Nope. Nope.)

[It will do that. Ugh, stupid future technology actually has security. Accessing anything important is probably going to be a bust...

It speaks out loud, no longer over the line.]


Okay we need ideas!! You don't happen to have any kind of access codes, do you?
totalmisplay: (Personally I hate the guy.)

—Okay. The guns are delayed; they can't fire right now. So this is probably my only chance.

[It will just have to hop on its drone and try to fly up near the ship after all. This wind is probably going to be brutal.]
