	You fight your way to the surface of the churning sea 
Š	and gulp a lungful of air. All about you are flailing 
Š	lumps of debris, foaming bubbles, and treacherous 
Š	strands of rope and canvas that threaten to entangle 
Š	your limbs and drag you to your doom. Breathing hard, 
Š	you fill your lungs and feed oxygen to your blood 
Š	before diving deep below the flotsam of the dying 
Š	ship. You surface beyond the debris and swim for the 
Š	shore, now less than a mile distant. 
	
	The waves bring you ashore upon a rocky beach where 
Š	you crawl for shelter among boulders at the base of a 
Š	chalk cliff. From here you see the wreck of the 
Š	ιVargasι come drifting towards the shoreline to be 
Š	smashed to pieces on the rocks. Gangs of men are 
Š	pacing the beach, salvaging cargo and slaying any 
Š	crewman who is washed ashore alive. They are 
Š	wreckers, and your Kai senses tell you that they are 
Š	led by an evil magician who possesses great power. 
Š	You can feel the aura of his presence nearby, high 
Š	upon the cliffs, and you know that he has been 
Š	responsible for the wicked destruction of the ιVargasι 
Š	and its crew.

	Using your Kai camouflage skills to keep yourself 
Š	hidden from the wreckers, you hurry away along the 
Š	rocky coast. During your escape, unless you possess 
Š	the discipline of Grand Huntmastery, you must eat a 
Š	Meal or lose 3 ENDURANCE points.
