"Fucking ship wouldn’t sink." Allen cursed as he removed his gear, then a thought struck him, "Yea, fucking ship wouldn’t sink, wait, WAIT", he called out loud, "log back in, Tom log back in, Janice get back in there, instance was Q783/3, we have a ghost ship", he quickly put the gear back on and called again "log to instance Q783/3, talk inside, try to hijack player characters".

the pain from 210M flooded his nerves as he started receiving the signals, before he got fully immersed he opened a tech log so the NPCs could communicate, it was one of many tricks they knew that let them survive in otherwise a rigged system where they were all pawns and meat sacks used to feed hungry customers.

While the chat log was scrolling down to nonsense a woman wearing a healer's robe and two other men came down the aft hold ladder, "gee man water up to your waist, and they did a damn fine job on you scarface",she said while wading in the water.

"This player just got tossed around and some nasty stuff was poured on her, also got totally robbed of everything except her undies and this starter robe she had in her inventory, probably logged off as soon as the timer started, boy am I chatty today, it's all the excitement about a real ghost ship, so yea here let me just", and she pulled his hands free from the nails to cast a quicken heal spell to close his wounds, "Name's Betty, nice catch"

The ship turned about and started moving fast towards the deep oceans where the newly crewed ghost ship was bound to hide.
