Lokii Prologue #1

Journal Entry Port Crown: Day 1
After 10 days on the road, my brother John and I finally made it to Port Royal. We are exhausted hungry and scared. Mom and dad told us to run and we did. This was not the first time we came to our aunt’s house when the Moudin attacked the farm, but something was different this time. The army was huge and I fear both our parents died in the attack. We are looking for Aunt Ky but cannot seem to find her. Her house is abandoned and there was nothing to eat. We don’t have any money and don’t know what to do. My brother is looking for work, but there is something about this town that is…strange.

Journal Entry Port Crown: Day 4
We are starving. John can’t find work even though he is a blacksmith apprentice. We hear rumors that the Moudin are attacking in a group so big that not even Port Crown can hold them back. We are afraid. I had to steal a loaf of bread yesterday. I felt terrible, but we had to eat. We are moving to the docks tomorrow to see if we can find something to make some money.
Journal Entry Port Crown: Day 6
I haven’t seen John in a day now. I went to the jail to see if he was there, but the jailor kicked me out and told me to leave. No one was in jail, the Moudin were nearly at the walls. I was wandering around and ran accidentally ran into a pirate, at least I think he was a pirate. He picked me up, looked me over and called me scrawny. I called him an old pollywog and he laughed. His name is Capt. Eyecut. He offered me a job as a page and started telling me of the 10 great ports we would see. I still can’t find John and I am afraid to leave without seeing him. Capt. Eyecut said I could become a screw turner on the submarine, whatever that is. We are to go looking for the 8 great treasures. I told him I would think about it and he told me to meet him on the Sky Razer before the morning tide. I am going to look for John.
Journal Entry on the Sky Razer: Day 1
John is dead, half the town is dead. The Moudin overran Port Crown this morning. I found John in an alley behind the Crooked Hook tavern. He was killed some time ago. I ran to the Sky Razer as fast as I could. I jumped from the dock to the deck as the ship was pulling away from port. As I looked back at Port Crown, the Moudin finally breached the western wall. Man am I glad to be on ship, I think.
