Black Root (1097W 1441S)
We need to find a captain willing to sail with us to Thanatos Island. We go to the tavern and meet Edward Teach:
It turns out he lost his ship to another sea dog. He says you have three ways to get to Thanatos:
1. Win the ship at dice from the captain.
2. Buy a new ship (from 25,000 to 50,000 coins).
3. Steal a ship from Pirate Pete.
Winning at dice is not easy, buying a ship is a waste of money, but stealing a ship is just what you need. Edward Teach will point out the location of Pete’s ship. Let’s go there. It turns out that Pirate Pete died 200 years ago, and only a skeleton remains.
Pete asks to be freed from his sins. To do this, we need to dig up his treasure and give it to the descendants of Jonas Williamson, repair the Vuriden altar, and destroy the finest blade in Arcanum, the Bengialean Branch.
By the way, I still couldn’t destroy such a beautiful blade—that’s just stupid, so I had to win a dice game. And don’t even try to kill the pirate (he’s level 50, and when you attack him, a bunch of level 45 skeletons will attack you).
From the editors: anyway, having acquired our own ship, we set off for the lost Island of Thanatos to search for the legendary elf, Nasredin.
