Sea Shantys

Admist the Tournament of Heroes, a few rumors have been circulating. Originally just small whispers have began to turn into rumors that causing panick among the fantasy residents.

"...beasts have been in a frenzy..."

"...merchants attacked lately...'

"-heard it was the pirates"

"Nay! the beasts!"

It seems that multiple merchant ships have been attacked on their way to King Arthur's realm, depriving some ports of needed merchandise. Well this simply cannot go on however... It seems that the cause of the attacks on merchants have not been identified!

The dark clouds affecting the sea monsters near the merchant trails is possible...however pirates could also be the source of misfortune. Arrg! It's difficult to discern so time to hit the waves!
