Overview
The Fat Crow, a battered two-masted merchantman, ran aground on this deserted coast after the People of the Claw (48.13) managed to set fire to its sails. Its cargo hold contains, among more mundane things, the honey of giant bees (13.09). Baron Pignose of Sosaria (48.18) ordered barrels of the honey to cure beef. The jerky made from the process is not only delicious, but acts as a cure light wounds potion.
Right now, it is uncertain whether or not the honey will reach Sosaria. The captain was eaten by jackalweres (51.17) and the first mate, Charlotte “Greedy Paw” Pond, is considering absconding with the honey and selling it to old friends from her pirate days. The remnants of the crew guard the ship. They have learned that jackalweres can imitate humans, and they are suspicious of anyone who approaches. Their supplies are dwindling, and they might warm up to someone offering water or rations.
Connection
Charlotte’s pirate friends hide in a tunnel at the foot of Melnir’s Mount (51.12).
