{{TBA}}

== Synopsis ==
The strategists aboard The Emerald Signet are bored of the lack of excitement. Thus far all of the potential treasure sites that they searched were empty. As the trip progresses, however, they experience the adventure of monster battles, the deep expanse of the sea, goblin encounters, and a battle with a group of necromancers. During the last fight, they are aided by the crazy Captain Rasea Zecrew of the Illuminary. She agrees to allow them to continue unmolested after Will explains that this is their first adventure. Finally, at the site of the 8th shipwreck, they find treasure. King Fetohep of Khelt declares that the six Diamond Swords of Serept have been found. He offers half of the swords for a lifespan if the other half are returned, else he will kill everybody on board.
