Captain of the Red Betty
Aunt Beryl needs some 'elp to finish her trip home. I be taking her armor and laying her to rest in that bitty o' Rheum. May'aps, they'll remember her or 'ave enough spirit to trust the word o' a pirate. Harhar, if not, the Queen 'erself promised to tell Aunt Beryl's story! I owe ye both for reuniting me with me flesh n' blood. Even for a short while. If ye ever need a ship or a fine right 'ook, let me be the first to come to mind.
Talk
Enjoy the sea breeze wit' me. I don't be in a rush to leave, an' I need to get me facts straight before I hop on a horse to Rheum.Past
Ages ago, Tremblor cracked the ground open an' scared the wits out of me shepherdess Aunt Beryl. 'is Plane named 'er as the Champion o' Earth. She learned the sword, slew foul beasts, and 'elped that Avatar shape the continents. Then, he made a mistake an threw Aunt Beryl to the sharks. I'll be rememberin' to spit on the ground whenever I think o' that oversized bilge rat.
Conflict
Long before the Kingdom o'Greenguard was even a blueblood's dream, the Avatars were divvying up space fer the land an' seas.The Alutians were a race who lived underwater, and loved Neso enough to spread the ocean in 'er name. Tremblor was none too pleased at the lost territory an' landlubbers but was too cowardly to confront Neso. He 'ad the Empire of Rheum invade Alutea thinking to give'em just desserts.
Nursery
Tremblor wished for a bloody affair with the Alutians. Wasn't 'appy with Rheum stoppin' at kicking' em back into the sea. Tremblor made sure all of of Rheum knew that he wanted Alutea to ne'er 'ave the ability to attack again. They took it as an order to wipe the Alutians out, starting with the eggs in their Nursery. Aunt Beryl wasn't there but she paid the price for sparking Neso's fury in the 'opes of saving her people.

Why, it's the biggest, shiniest gem Lore has ever seen! It's also said t'be CURSED - it always finds its way back to the ocean. The last crew what had it vanished beneath the sea, never to be heard from again.Are you sure this a good idea?

Kaiju Corsairs?
Th' Kaiju Corsairs - so named 'cause their secret weapon be a gigantic monster! It swims hidden under th' commander's galleon, until another ship attacks. Then, it emerges from the depths an' destroys their opponent. They say it 'as a mental link with the fleet's commander, Cap'n Kraylox, an' that's what keeps it under the fleet's control. Kill the Cap'n, and they lose their kaiju.

Captain of the Red Betty
I don't appreciate bein' lied to fer any reason. An' I do consider 'oldin' back truths to be the same as lying, just makin' sure ye knew that. If the Queen 'ad been forthright about what the treasure was, I would 'ave been fully onboard. This Exiled Champion o' Earth been the treasure we was lookin' fer the entire time. Me ancestor, was stolen away by the Avatar o' Water, Neso…but why?
True Ritual
The 'Pacify the Sea Witch' ritual changed o'er time. The 'Sea Witch' actually be the Avatar o' Water, Neso. The Town o' Rheum, favored by Tremblor, offended 'er somehow an' she took the Champion in retaliation. To soothe 'er grudge an' get 'er back, the townspeople would drown themselves at this here beach. Did she demand this o' them? The sea be known to be unforgivin' but what could incur such brutal wrath?
Avatars
Be ye familiar with the Avatars? They're the Lords o' the Elemental Planes an' many in Lore worship them fervently. Legends about them be interestin' to 'ear over a frothy mug o' moglin berry juice but I don't pay any mind. I sail an' conquer the seas with me own skill an' wit. Now that I've gotten a peek at what 'appens when Neso loses 'er temper, I'd spit at one if I e'er locked me good eye with'em.
Ancestor
The Exiled Champion o' Earth was a branch on me family tree. This be the first time i've 'eard o' them an' their older brother Oxali. I did know me grandparents were from Rheum, it just wasn't important to me. I prefer the freedom o' the seas an' the 'istory I plan to make in me lifetime. But, I be curious. I wonder what this grandstandin' Champion be like. 'opefully not a landlubber, harharhar!

Good t'see you, matey! I 'eard from a gaggle o' important escorts that ye be be lookin' fer an adventure out on the Sea. Well, I'm yer man! There's more than enough cabin on the Red Betty fer ye 'n anythin' else ye needs t' take. On me honor as a cap'n and yer friend, I promise t' keep ye safe from the ocean's terrors. After the Mana Crisis, the sea foam's been coughin em up one after another on the beach.

Harharhar, without Chaos an' Shadowflame to scare 'em off, Greenguard's neighbors be sailin' too close.
Champions
Mighty precious cargo was aboard me ship, sailin' t' the fishin' town o' Ashray. It's faster t' sail along the coast than t' travel through the rough terrain by horse. An Innkeeper named Yulgar, his daughter, a young lad, a dragonslayer, 'n a paladin were urged by the Greenguard Crown t' go t' Ashray so some special doctors could heal 'em. took 'em thar as a favor t' the Queen afore comin' t' see ye.
