The Tale of the Siren and the Shark (Half of SBD's on Payout to TARC)

Neither a Siren or a Shark can be described as a particularly pleasant denizen of the choppy seas. Hapless voyagers set out on adventures in beautiful waters of the deepest azure blue but are always on the lookout for potential "traps". One such quest began on a rather weather beaten ship that was full of a few well intentioned folk who simply wanted to find safer ground....and waters.
The Captain was fearless yet bore the weight of the crew she carried much akin to Atlas carrying the weight of the entire world on his shoulders. She lifted the sails and off they went with a few musicians, an herbalist or two and many swashbuckling Captains of other vessels who just wanted to hang out and party on the .... "Alpaca Punch". (It is an odd name for this ship but then again the best things come in quirky packages.)

.....A hauntingly beautiful sound was heard in the distance. It was hypnotic and made the hairs on the back of your neck stand on point. The entire group on the ship had just begun their travels and even though they were weaving tales of defeating foes and making grog and assorted Ales, the sing song sound started to change into a malevolent shriek.........
part two coming soon.....
