Simone walks on board while holding onto her bag tightly. It wasn't the first time she was away from her family, but this time was permanent. She saw three people on the ship communicating and decided to be her normal self. Just because her whole life changed didn't mean she had time to be nervous. She went up to the group and introduced herself.
"Hi, I'm Simone." She said with her signature grin.
Bahari looked to the young girl. "Your name is Simone? My name is Bahari. Does anyone on ship speak Polynesian? It would be easy." She looked around for more crew members who might've been from her side of the island.
William didn’t make a move for the anchor, instead sitting on the side of the ship, “The stars tell me to not waste my enlightening energy on moving the anchor. Instead, I will watch over the crew for evil spirits,” William said with a wave of his hand. It was all gimmicks, but he didn’t feel like moving to anchor too much, “I shall send good karma your way though.”
"I am," Simone spoke up and said. "I'm from Tahiti."
Ailith sent a glare over to William. "The spirits are telling me that you're just lazy." She muttered, going over to help pick up the anchor. "I'm Ailith, by the way."
"You are? Good! You speak Polynesian? And anchor, please!" Bahari yelled out to the ship.
(For Polynesian we'll be using Japanese since it was technically a Pacific Island language and also Polynesian isn't in google translate.)
“The spirits don’t talk to you. You do not possess the third eye as I do,” William informed haughtily.
"I have enough dignity not to." She replied. She pulled up on the anchor as well.
Bahiri smiled and pushed the anchor with Ailith. After a lot of straining they managed to raise it, and felt the ship rise and bouy on the water. The crew who had family ran to the deck to wish them goodbye.
William laughed, “The stars and spirits chose me to bear the thrid eye for them. I am the vessel that carries messages from one realmscape to the other,” William tipped his head back, “I will make sure to tell the spirits what you say though. They will be offended.”
Aleena walked on the edge of the boat
Bahari gave a look to Simone that said clearly, These people will not quit their arguing, will they?
"Shouldn't they already be offended that we're hunting them?" Ailith asked, letting go of the anchor and brushing one of her braids behind her ear.
Simone got tired of waiting around and ran up and balanced herself onto the bowspirit. She managed to get a solid balance and looked over.
“No,” William said fiercely, “We do not hunt the spirits of good fortune. We hunt the spirits that taint this would with evil.” Probably one of the only things that put William on edge was the bad spirits. They tainted the land, and William took those very seriously.
Ailith paused. "How are we supposed to tell which is which? Any bad spirit could pretend to be good."
"That is true." Aleena spoke from her position
“I see through the lies with my third eye,” William said proudly. It was true, somewhat, he was in tune with certain demon magic, “And no good spirits taint the land. I will know.”
"Will you now?" Ailith asked, raising an eyebrow.
Bahari laughed. "Let him. We kill bad things, good he worships the good."
William nodded, “I will be at the nest if the crows if I am needed on this realm.” William climbed up to the crows nest to meditate.
(Gtg, see you all later)
Ailith looked over at Bahari. "Interesting crew you've gathered here," she said, smiling. "This should be fun."
Simone turns around and walks back on the ship. "So, when are we going?"
Bahari smiled at Aillith. "To Maldives. There is a spirit emergency that we can stop. Take helm and masts!"
Aleena ran to one of the masts
(I low-key have no idea how a ship works, so this should be fun)
Ailith smiled. "To Maldives." She answered, before moving to the helm.
Simone ran to the helm and started pushing it, ready for her first mission. She had all this built up excitement inside her and was ready to let it all out in the form of wrath to the spirits. They were not going too be lucky today.
Harley was already on the mast, he just hadn’t been seen by anyone. Harley grinned at Aleena and did a salute, a big grin on his face.
Aleena grinned back and continued to lower the sails
