While the ships are sailing over the horizon, Boozey opens his disguise kit and begins to work magical (ahem) changes on himself and Allister. With a little bit of effort the two of us are unrecognisable, and look as if we are pirates who have been lost in the Jungle for a few weeks and had a pretty rough time to boot.
Nenne will catch Allister before he leaves. "This is yours, I believe. I meant to return it to you some time ago," she says, handing him a bandana. It's the same bandana he tore apart in anger at Jago's, now perfectly mended.
She pokes him gently on the forehead, casting Guidance. "Be wise, be temperate, and be safe. Kelemvor's grace on you."
Allister grabs the bandana and puts it in his pocket. "Thanks." That is all he says, but his eyes betray his indifferent words. He swiftly turns away before anyone notices his gratefulness. At least that what he hopes...
Eku stings her bow while watching Boosey disguise himself and Allister. She shakes her head and walks to stand at the edge of the trees looking towards the cave. She mutters a few words to herself and makes a few motions with her hands as she takes up her bow. With a nod, she turns back to the party and nods, "We've got this. These people have done nothing but evil along these waters. Let those thoughts guide your strikes to be true."
As he puts the finishing touches to the disguises on himself and Allister, Boosey stands back and appraises his handiwork. "Hmm. Not the best, but it'll have to do for now. It should be good enough to fool those pirates in dim light". Casting enhance ability on himself and Allister. "Shall we begin our performance then, my friend? Enter, stage left", and we begin to make our way towards the gate, stumbling along and supporting each other as if weak with exhaustion.
Before they set of Allister says to his friends "If we get into trouble Boosey will silence them with magic. That´s the sign to run for the gate. Or if we just wave at you, that´s the better case." He grabs Boosey, sets him on his shoulders and starts walking. "And now you start swaying."
As we slowly approach the gate, Boosey starts wailing and pathetically. "Deeeeeeaaaaad. Aaaaaaallllllllllllll deeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaddddddd. They're aaaalllllll deeeeeaaaaaad, every one of them. The Jungle took them. Aaaaaaalllllll deeeeeeaaaaaad"
Funderburk looks towards the rest of the group, now down two with the recently departed Boosey and Allister, "I will follow behind them 50ft away. The moment the act, I will join the fray." With that, Funderburk casts Mage Armor on himself, adjusts his matted robes, pulling the hood above his head covering it, and sets out behind the pair. He watches them, waiting for them for whenever they act of strike, being prepared to help them whenever.
The deceptive duo hear an alarm of surprise from inside the vine lashed barrier as they make their loud approach, "Hey now! What's all this?" From the other side of the gate two voices can be heard, "Who's 'ere? Whas goin' on?" and "Who's it matter, Hunny? You know the rules!"
Allister:
A man was named 'Hunny' by the crew of the Murderous Mermaid because of his love for honey. He hated it, but he didn't really put up much of a fight over the nickname, so it stuck. He was a bad sailor and a fool, but he could handle a cutlass well enough.
Allister to suppress every curse known to pirates when he hears the pirates yell. "Shit, we´re in deep trouble. I know Hunny!" he whispers to Boosey. "Say we were with the Silver Princess under captain Wellsey if they ask. Tell them we have gold if they let us in." He keeps his head low but his eyes on the gate to see if he can spot any footholds if he has to climb it. Once near the gate he he lowers Boosey from his shoulders to free his hands if he needs to act quickly.
ooc: this isn’t good, lol must’ve been posting at the same time Edited to make sense
Boosey continues the wailing, keeping up the charade. With various “help us” and “all gone”, “all dead”, “the jungle”, “evil spirits”, “we’re dying, save us”, “help” as the two approach. Under his breath he mutters to Allister “got it, the Silver Princess. watch that ballista, they may decide to use it.”
"I dunno Burk, it sounds pretty bad." "I'll make you sounds pretty bad if you don't get that whiskey breath outta my face." "It's rum." "Whatever it is!" "What we gonna do with 'ese ones?"
An eye appears through a split between lashed logs to look at the two strangers before the speaker identified as Burk addresses the duo, "Hey, you two can't come round here. sod off."
Allisters finds new hope as the person adressing them is not Hunny. Just loud enough to be heard by Burk he says "Mate, gotta let us in. Been in the jungle for a tenday. The Fist sunk us, the Silver Princess. We been swimmin´ to shore, seven of us, but the jungle... mate, it ate ´em. Jungle ate ´em. Let us in, we got coin. See, we got coin." He opens his pouch, holding a handful of gold towards Burk, and letting the coins slip through his fingers. ´Tis yours, just let us in."
Burk turns away from the wall and says to Hunny, "Go'n tell the captain that we've a couple a stragglers out 'ere. Tell 'em there's a gnome. Somethin' about that gnome is givin' me the willies." His voice was low, but the man has too big a voice for any real whispering.
A ball of molten lead explodes in Allister´s guts as he hears Burk speak. "You let us in, yes? My friend is just thirsty, drank too much sea water. Who´s your captain?"
Nenne relates the message to the group.
"Wizard? Warrior? Are we to begin? If so, I should like to follow you at some distance."
"Just some minor enhancements to my already splendid face in case some of my old crew mates are inside the cave and we are good to go."

Sthara situates herself near to Eku, lying in wait for their game to unfold.

Made you look.

As Allister lowers Boosey to the ground the gnome collapses face down into the ground and lies there unmoving.
Burk turns away from the wall and says to Hunny, "Go'n tell the captain that we've a couple a stragglers out 'ere. Tell 'em there's a gnome. Somethin' about that gnome is givin' me the willies." His voice was low, but the man has too big a voice for any real whispering.
A ball of molten lead explodes in Allister´s guts as he hears Burk speak. "You let us in, yes? My friend is just thirsty, drank too much sea water. Who´s your captain?"
"Throw that coin over and we'll see about the gate." A waterskin comes flying over the wall to land against the ground nearby.
