My God, it's full of ships....

The whistle calls again as Captain Howdy turns from Kulman and pulls his telescope from his belt.  He looks intently through the lenses.  "No, not a blockade, more of just a bunch of ships anchored.  No guns, no nothing."  He moves the telescope from side to side.  "No wait...there is something.  Smoke, coming from the island."  He barks a command to his crew.  "Someone find me what the hells is going on over there."  With that, a man dives into the water, swimming quickly towards the closest boat.  The captain turns to you all.  "Whatever it is, we'll know soon enough..."

"I'm on a Boat!" (Reprise)

As you all huddle in the center in the cave (around a passed out Kulman), Echean pulls a familiar wand from his pack.  "Hold on, now this may sting" he says, followed by some magic words that sound like "Ala Bazam".

An odd sensation takes hold of you as you feel insubstantial for a moment, as you find yourself being thrown from your feet unexpectedly as the ground you stand on seems to be in constant sway.  As you get your bearings, you realize that you are ass first on the deck of a ship, which seems to be caught in a storm.  Deckhands approach you, followed by an unpleasant looking fellow with a bandana that hangs over his eye.  He looks at you all, then a piece of paper.

With a gnarled voice he barks loudly, so as to be heard over the crashing waves on the deck, "Which one uhz uz is Broadtoad?"

Kulman returns...

Kulman walks back into the cave.... "Hey Guys... Well..."  Hicup..  "It's done.. We have a boat waiting for us in Deep... Dep... Deerp-Mar.. A captain named Howdy is going to let us catch a ride to Promise.. That's in Hermea.. I learned that..  Wow, I need to sleep....."

With that Kulman goes to his sleeping bag and passes out, in full armor...
