A Run of Good Luck
A Run of Good Luck, by Dimitri of the Silver Blade.
When I was young, I learned not to believe in fate and fortune. The roll of the dice is decided not by unseen forces, but by the bumps and knots of the tabletop. But since the day we four made it to the Sea of Thieves and found this ship, the Silver Blade, just waiting for us to claim her... I've not been so sure. She must have been recently salvaged by the merfolk, I suppose, like so many other lost ships. Not that we knew that when we chose to board her. The ship was completely deserted, though we learned a little of her first crew from notes left among their belongings – who knew Flameheart ever had a son? We took the vessel for ourselves, of course, on that first lucky day. And today, if the map in my hands is worth the gold I paid, will be our luckiest day yet...
