《Sad Water Sailors (Horror-adventure)》Splash
Advertisement
Ricardo was calm, sleeping in his net.
It was then that the noise of someone running was heard in the cabins
*Splash* A bucket of water fell on Ricardo
"Is it okay, boy?" Taras asked, somewhat worried, looking at the young cabin boy lying in his net.
Ricardo opened his eyes, when he woke up he found himself in the cabins, Taras or the Lupine was in front of him, he didn't remember very well what happened last night, but he did remember the important details.
"Taras? Are you still alive?" Ricardo asked the uncomfortable one for not knowing if Lupine was cheating on him or not.
"Think boy, who did Ron kill?" Taras asked, he knew that with words, it would be difficult to convince, better to use an intermediary like Ron.
"Why did he do it, Ron? ...there was no way to help him? He saved my life!" Ricardo shouted with tears on his face, remembering the atrocious scene.
"He saved me too, if it wasn't for him, I would still be a worm's puppet! But it was the best thing for Dima, he had to stop his suffering, do you remember his screaming?" Taras said sadly seeing the young man crying.
"Killing a Lupine has its consequences, they are very close to each other and one of them is a god... he was torturing him with his murmurs to the point of driving him insane, also if we didn't kill him it could be dangerous for us, touching him was asking death...". Taras added later, seeing that Ricardo continued with questions.
"He saved us both... and he knew it was suicide to kill the Lupin, why would he do it? We're just two more sailors on this ship" Ricardo said, breaking into tears looking for explanations. He liked Dima, but not to the point where he was willing to sacrifice his life for Dima; however, the opposite did happen and Dima sacrificed himself to save him.

"Do you really want to know, boy? But remember that there are truths that it is better not to know and live happily in ignorance…" he said in a slow voice from the cabin door.
Ricardo looked at the door and was surprised, he hadn't talked to that person in a long time and most likely that person was responsible for all this tragedy.
Ricardo got angry when he saw it. If Dima died it was because of him, if Taras was parasitized by Lupine it was because of him, Lucas's death was his fault and allowing the madness of this ship was his fault and all his injuries were because of him .
But before he could say anything a murmur came from Taras: "Choose your words well, he is still the captain of the ship"
"Yes! ... I want to know the truth!" Ricardo yelled angrily from the net, ignoring the advice or maybe not...
"Fine... If that is what you wish, then come to my cabin and you will learn the truth of the story..." Wiliam said calmly, turning around.

It is largely standalone, but I highly recommend reading Dragon Seed first! One man. One game. One adorable baby dragon. Two weeks ago, Hector Park cheated death by uploading his mind to the ultra-immersive fantasy RPG game, Archemi. After exposing the rotten heart of an order of dragon knights, he’s now on the run with a young queen dragon who could one day become the most powerful mount in the game. To get strong enough to face their enemies, they need a quest – a big one. Fortunately, trouble has a way of finding Hector, and it does – in the form of a series of brutally murdered priests, a king in desperate need of a hero, and a beautiful, fiery berserker. The risk? Huge. The payoff? More gold than a dragon’s hoard. There's only one problem - Archemi is haunted by the ghost of a mad developer bent on making the game his personal playground. And now that the world outside has vanished in a storm of nuclear fire, there's no one left to stop him. Or at least, that’s what he thinks. Because Hector isn't the kind of man to take this shit lying down, and neither is his dragon. You can find Trial by Fire here: Trial by Fire on Amazon
