"I will thanks a lot!"

Yaayyyy back to the talking boat now!

Permalink

The talking boat appears to be sleeping.

Permalink

"Hey wake up I found a sail for you!"

Permalink

"Huh- What? Oh, fine work. Hm, what do you know about sailing? With my help it will not be terribly difficult, but I wonder how much I should explain."

Permalink

"...I have set foot on a boat before in my life."

Permalink

"...Yes this calls for a fair amount of lecturing." And he explains the basic process of sailing, using the difference between the wind and ocean current to get somewhere, and then to the actual physical process of doing so.

"I suspect you will become skilled at it sooner or later, and I will be able to assist somewhat."

Permalink

"Okay good so do we leave now or...?"

Permalink

"You may wish to pack some food and fresh water. Barring that, yes."

Permalink

"Right. That."

She'll just run back to town and get some supplies of that nature.

Permalink

Zunari is already energetically and cheerfully bartering the lone surviving crate of stuff from his ship. All the books are ruined, of course, but he has interesting ceramics, jewelry, and so on.

Food and so on are easily acquired. One of the fishermen she asked for a sail earlier give her advice on what would be good to pack.

Permalink

Great, then she can return to the magic boat well provisioned for her imminent voyage.

Permalink

Eastwards toward Dragon Roost Island! It will take a few hours.

The boat gives her more lectures on sailing as he drifts out of his little cove. Reading the wind is critically important apparently, Zephos and Cyclos's whims punish or reward sailors as they please.

Permalink

Anna does her best to get it all down!

Permalink

The high peak of Dragon Roost Isle is clearly visible even from this distance. It's a nice day for sailing, clear sky and strong consistent wind. There are some barrels bobbing around here and there which she could approach if she likes. She comes across a tower jutting out of the sea and sporting a pirate flag after about half an hour.

Permalink

Is there anything interesting in the barrels?

Permalink

Ruined, soaked books. Torn clothes. Shattered glass. A few rupees here and there. One tightly sealed barrel seems to be slowly seeping some kind of oil.

Permalink

Well. Okay then.


She'll steer around the pirate island.

Permalink

It's not exactly an island - just a simple wooden structure, a watchtower. The pirate watchtower does not object to her avoiding it by a wide margin, anyway.

Permalink

Well, good. She doesn't really want to mess around with pirates. Magic artifacts to collect, sisters to rescue.

Permalink

She approaches the island presently.

Hey, is that Beedle's shop-ship? The bait guy? It is!

Permalink

What's he doing here?

Permalink

Selling bait, presumably. Perhaps to the bird people flying to and fro well above the island's surface.

Permalink

Small world.

...Now that they're here, where is she going?

Permalink

"High atop this island's peak rests the spirit of the skies... A great dragon by the name of Valoo. He holds one of three mystical treasures required for the next step. You must go see this dragon and request from him a jewel known as Din's Pearl. I am sure the people of the Rito Tribe who inhabit this island can tell you how to reach the high peak."

Permalink

"Cool."

So, if she gets out and starts exploring, does she find anything interesting or does anyone come to talk to her?
