“Are you alright?” A deep voice boomed beside me loud enough for me to hear over all the chaos. I nod my head as I wipe the ichor away from my eyes. “Fine.” I blinked my eyes a few times to remove the last of what was obscuring my vision. When they readjust, I notice that the crew is getting ready to fire a cannon. I’d never actually seen such a cannon before, there were no balls of iron or the like anywhere that I had seen aboard the ship. I watched in awe as the captain signaled for the first shot, a bright beam of light shot from the cannon and landed a decent shot on the leviathan’s head. Cheers came from the crew at the success. The captain however looked even more serious than he had before, his eyes still on the monster as the smoke began to clear. “We are not done yet men! Prepare the next cannon!” My eyes went from the captain to the beast of the sea as the smoke cleared. It was indeed wounded but not nearly enough. Another shriek of terror left the things beak as it lashed out with its tentacles. One was coming straight for me again and I didn’t think I had the strength to parry another attack. “Prepare to fire!” The captain darted in front of me, his weapon protecting me just in the nick of time. More blood splashed across the deck and this time the captain didn't seem to be bothered by such a thing. Instead, he ran to rescue an unlucky crew member who was currently being thrashed about by the other tentacle. The stout man fell to the deck as his captain sliced at the thick tentacle and I run forward to help him out of the way. His right arm is broken and his leg is covered in blood.
