Sails woke up from his sleep in the captain's bed with the sound of screams, coming from Raven Rock. He couldn't find Nelur anywhere inside the ship and the only good reason left would be to go outside and search. As soon as the sunlight hit his eyes, he found out the source of the screams. A bunch of Blood Horkers were pillaging the city, and the Redoran Guards were being slaughtered overwhelmingly by their ballistas. Nelur had just raised a dead guard with his magic and was deling with them, nearly by himself. Sails ran to the Retching Netch to find his men asleep, buzzed, with or without female company.
- Wake up! All of you! The city is being pillaged! Your break is over, go out there and show the Horkers that we are the true haunters of the sea!
They all got up annoyingly slowly, picked up their weapons, and went outside to fight the pirates. Sails quickly followed and joined Nelur's dead thrall.
- For Azura Sails! They are so many in numbers!_ He complained while casting icy spears at the hearts of some cutthroats that dared to come too close.
- I will take down some of their swordsmen, if you favor your thrall to accompany me.
- Go on, I am better on my own anyway.
Exploring the city and the many guards that were now bleeding to death, Sails found five men taking every single strongbox and valuables from a house, as well as swords, tusks, armor, gems and other profitable tradeable items. The argonian didn't utter a single word, and simply pointed his sword at them. They laughed at the foolish man. Five swords on two would easily crush the opposing side. That was what they thought. The argonian began the fight with a sprint and made one of them fall just by swooping him with his tail. One of the remaining four was entertained by the thrall, and another had to hold all the values. So there were only two against one. With his usual skill, Sails held his rapier in a way that would block whilst making offensive moves. He spinned and kicked one of them in the stomach and immediatly decapitated the second one. The first he knocked down got up quickly and focused on the thrall, who had staggered the first Horker with a shield bash. Sails hit his opponent's crotch with the knee and took his dagger from the belt. After pushing him away, he threw the stolen dagger against one of the thrall's attackers' back, killing him.
- I will teach you not to steal from me!
The angered pirate performed a powerful attack with his iron sword, but the argonian simply stepped aside and made him fall by putting his foot in front of his quick steps. The thrall was killed by the other bandit soon enough and Sails was forced to pierce the man that was down in his back to have less risks in the fight. He was bleeding from his lip due to the shield bash, and was incredibly angry too. His attack was precise against Sails' abdomen, and made him fall to his knees. His blade touched the argonian's neck, and when he was about to strike, a lightning bolt electrocuted him. Nelur came to aid.
The man with the loot ran off and jumped into the sea. Since he didn't come out to the surface again, he had most probably drowned and lost all the loot to th ocean.
They turned back, and noticed the men were getting along pretty nicely too against the rustlers of the seas. The only problem was Sails was still bleeding, but for his fortune, Nelur was a great alchemist and his potion closed his wounds in a matter of seconds. In the burning docks, a small boat was floating calmly, with a corpse too in the water, probably from his former owner. Sails and Nelur got on it and rowed to the sieging ship. Using the loose planks, they managed to get aboard, but at the cost of being immediatly noticed by everyone in the ship. Nelur's fingers instinctively spit flames from their tip and roasted many of the sailors alive, while Sails' blade sentenced many to their deaths until only the woman that was leading that ship was left. Nelur stood back, as if it was tradition for captains to fight captains. Sails had a sharper sword and was quicker, the woman was heavily armored and had a mace strong enough to break two skulls at once.
- You damn Slaughterfish think you can outstand my men!
- We just did, you are the only one left in Raven Rock, unless some of them surrendered.
- No! True Blood Horkers never surrender. For the nine, you will pay for this!
She swung her mace heading for the argonian's face, but he crouched and dodged it. In anger from the dodge, she hit the ground due to the argonian's retreat to make her miss. With such a stron strike, the planks of the ship's deck broke and her leg got stuck in the hole caused by the captain herself. But still it didn't make the fight much easier. Sails was simply blocked by her countless blows and could not proceed to strike her. Until suddenly, she freed herself and hit Sails below his chin, causing his body to go very high and then hitting the ground with a painful impact. After getting up, Sails was greeted by innumerous attacks once again. This time, he tried to fall back until he reached the tall log that held the crow's nest. Her mace hit it and refused to get out. It was stuck. In a quick thought, Sails eviscerated the woman's breast, piercing the heart, with so much strength the heavy armor broke. She fell to her knees and coughed some blood.
- You will... pay.
At the tiring situation the captain was at, he didn't even bother about dumping the captain and the sailors' lifeless bodies.
- Just... Just take the loot Nelur.
