The Blood Moon Rises

[best read with a pirate accent]

Ahoy! 10 PAX gathered in the gloom ‘neath an eerie sky in the wee arrrrs of an early humpday morn. The sky, alight with starrrs, would soon be turnt’ to blood as the light from the harrrvest moon melted away to reveal its blood red hearrrrrrrrrrrrrrt. Conditions were fiarrr, with a light sea breeze blowin’ in from the west — keepin the starrrrs and stripes a’flyin’ free on the bank o’ the Murray Dam. In the pre-dawn light, the fearless Q made ready his team of skallywags, and gave this warrrrnin’, “Remember ye laddies, heave-ho yer kettle bells and be carrrreful not to hornswaggle ye family jewels. Maintain ye good form let ye hips do the liftin’. Dead men tell no tales. Savvy?”

Some time amidst the rable, a Marooner was spotted near the shore. With Quest swinging the lead, the young laddie joined our ranks for bit. Aye, but after a wee time we let him walk free on his honor that he’d be back next week on early darrrrk.
