Guest DM on D20 Caribbean Cruise

I have been selected to be a guest Dungeon Master aboard the Event Cruises D20 Cruise. The cruise is from Orlando, FL and visits Puerto Costa Maya, Mexico, and Cozumel, Mexico, between April 27th and May 2nd, 2024.

The cruise will be filled with D&D, as well as workshops, and other games. If you are interested, please use the link below to check it out.
https://event.cruises/d20-cruise-a-ttrpg-vacation/
If you are able to join me, use my code: BRENTDUNGEON for $50 off.
The games on the cruise will be 5th edition D&D, but I am going to run it in OSR fashion, with death being very possible. But there are other DMs as well, if you want a more tame experience.

Most importantly, if you are going, let me know, so we can meet and hang out!

Session One Hundred Four: The Forest Ridge

Selia looked toward the splashing noise, but it was difficult to see. Ral and Guthay were not lighting up the sky. She did spot some slight movement and called out, asking who was there. Suddenly, Selia found herself unable to move. She tried to grunt as loud as possible, but none of her companions awoke.
A woman emerged from the darkness and put a hand over Selia's mouth. She was shaped like a human, but had pointed ears. Selia was colorblind, so the woman's skin looked gray and her hair appeared black. The woman told Selia to be quiet, that she would not be harmed.
The woman then asked Selia if she, or the group, were there to befoul her water. She also told Selia that she was reading her mind and Selia only had to think an answer. Selia answered no.
The woman asked about the group's reasons for being there and Selia, who could not lie, told her what she knew. The woman released Selia from the magical paralyzed state and asked her to wake up Dimitria, so they could talk further. She said her name was Raaza.
Dimitria was awakened and she and Selia talked to Raaza. Raaza said she was a creature of water, called an Avasori. She then told them that she was the guardian of the pool and the pool was very important to the elemental lords of water.

Session One Hundred Three: The Slave and His Noble

Day 13, Week 1, Fifthover, Friend's Vengeance, 190th King's Age, Sun Descending

The group awoke and Dimitria caught up with Selia, as they passed out their daily rations. Yusef had used some string to fasten Raco's skull to his severed wrist and was talking to it, as if Raco were still alive. Everyone worried about Yusef's mental state; he had lost three friends and his hand in a very short time.
The group returned to the cloud ray carcass and carved off the meat they thought they could carry, leaving the rest for vultures and other scavengers.
They continued their hike through the mountain and, after a few hours, came upon a ravine. They were prepared to navigate around the ravine, as they had done so many times before, when something caught Kraah's eye. He saw some unusual colors on an outcropping, inside the ravine. He flew closer and saw two human men huddled together.

Session One Hundred Two: The Cloud Ray Incident

They rested on the mountaintop for the rest of the day. Raco eventually woke up and they informed him that Cheet was dead. Also, that Kraah and Yusef were blinded. And Yusef was missing his left hand.
Dimitria told Yusef that Samsun had cut off his hand and Yusef was furious. Samsun apologized and told him it was an accident. Yusef understood, but was still upset.

Day 11, Week 1, Fifthover, Friend's Vengeance, 190th King's Age, Sun Descending

In the morning, Dimitria used her magic to restore Yusef's sight. Kraah used his own magic to restore his own sight. Yusef took Samsun's pound of goat butter and said it was his, because Samsun had cut off his hand. Samsun did not argue.
While they burned Cheet's body, the handed out food and water rations. Then, they scattered her ashes on the scant greenery of the mountain tops. Saying goodbye to Cheet one last time, the group hiked into the mountains.
