As the Malaia's ballista fired on the kegs when they were near the railing, they ended up exploding right on top of the ship's stem, resulting in flames and debris to hit the front of the privateers' ship.

The starboard deck of the War Master was on fire, having also been damaged by the explosion.

On the gun deck, the Ebonarm First Mate ordered the starboard ballistae loaded and they fired on the Malaia at close range, hitting a few of their crew as they pelted the enemy ship. The portside fire was more of less contained, but it was still raging since the crew didn't have time to correctly put it out with the tarps.

The War Master was starting to tip to one side, due to the water that was filling its hold.

"Whatever, just fork it over." The Redguard repeated and motioned for the Bone Masks to hand over the gold.

The Warden nodded and ordered a nearby guard to assist him as he opened the cells to gather the three pirates. Within a few minutes they were in the hall, chained up and handed over to the Navarch and his men.

"I see." Caius muttered. He pushed the wanted poster for the Betony Raiders over to their side of the table. "Are you familiar with these pirates? They're known to raid around your kingdom, in the island of Betony. You might have run into them."

"Land ho, Captain!" M'Sani yelled from the crow's nest. She was getting used to the naval lingo by now.

Up ahead was Bleakrock Isle, a part of the Hold of Eastmarch. It was home to a coastal village, a few nordic ruins and a notable mining settlement. It was ruled by a nordic Lord that was a direct vassal of the High Queen of Skyrim.

"Finally, maybe we can eat some good cooking there." Lhotun said as a jest towards Shav, who scoffed.

"We should anchor on the northern shore, to avoid the village to the south so we don't get spotted by any Guards." Shav stated.

The Brinehammer sailed for the smaller Isle of Orkey that was part of the archipelago that made up Bleakrock.
