Prompt #8 – Hidden

image

Adelena pulled hard on the sail rope. Orders were being shouted about as Sirens scrambled across the deck. There was a tension to the crew. An urgency to get the boat hidden behind the crag and quickly. If they wasted any time then this advantage would be lost to them.

Closer the Garlean vessel sailed. The orders were no longer shouted. A silence had fallen over the crew now that the ship was concealed behind a rocky crag. Adelena and several others stood at the ready to pull or release ropes the moment the signal was given. Ready for what they knew came next.

They would do what Sirens did best. Be pirates. No matter the leash the Admiral had on pirates now. The Lady Infernal was still one of the better ships out there.

Adelena let go of some of the rope on cue. Holding just tight enough not to let it fly completely loose. It wouldn’t do to damage the ship in the breezy weather.

Closer they sped towards that Garlean boat. Axes were drawn as the Sirens prepared to board the enemy. Today they would celebrate when they returned to the Missing Member. First they just had to sink these Garlean scum.
