Ultima 9

by Null Pointer

Part 17: Chapter 4, Part 2

Heading in the opposite direction brings us to a slave auction.



To suit my needs I'd have to buy two of them.




Oh well, you have to take the good with the bad.




: I came here looking for Samhayne, not to be a slave. Please help me get out of here.
: These people kidnapped you?
: Yes, they kidnapped me and took all of my belongings! I had no debts. I didn't need to sell myself into service. Oh, please help me sir. If I don't get away from here, they'll sell me as a slave!
: Why are you looking for Samhayne?
: Well, my mother knew Samhayne years ago. Just before she died, she gave me a letter of introduction to Samhayne so he would give me a job.
: Are you going to help me? Oh please, say yes!
: I'll see what I can do.




The next building has some gold, some treasure, and a parchment.




I'm sure that's meaningless.




Oh Avatar, you are such a busybody.




...







I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU







: Were there any more captives?
: Only one that I knwo of: they took the captain. I heard some of the pirates talking about them holding the captain in some cave until his ransom was paid.




Finally we reach the ship docked at the other side of town.




Inside the captain's cabin is a chest containing Katie's stuff. The letter we'll take to Samhayne. The gold we'll take to the bar. And you'd better not tell anyone.

Looting the chest makes a parrot talk to us.

: Squawk! The pirates are hoarding Serpentwyne! Squawk!
: What?
: I didn't say anything! Squawk!




On our way to the bar we meet this comely lass.




Oh god I'm not good with decisions. Do we want to party?
