Tales of Captain Crow - Chapter 7: A Fateful Encounter with the Red Bluster

The Tales of Captain Crow, Chapter Seven "A fateful encounter with the Red Bluster" Wherein the reader will learn how the great Captain Crow Lost his eye Captain Crow and his mighty ship, met the fearsome Red Bluster Beyond the known world, on the icy waters, north of the Silver Sea As they battled, mighty swirls rose like mountains under dark skies Cannons spat fire, and smoke, and warmed the gods They fought on until days became weeks The sea itself recoiled from such savagery But neither side would give up fight The seasons passed, and the coming of winter brought fierce storms That battered the ship, mercilessly Sleets and hail slashed at the sailors like daggers But still the battle raged Until finally 'The Inevitable' became lodged in ice, helpless And only then was the most dreaded of the beasts Able to strike a terrible blow that maimed both, ship and Captain 'The Inevitable' barely made it to port where it was repaired But Crow would never be home And he swore he would exert bloody revenge That's quite a good story, isn't it? I like the bit about the fire, and the smoke And I'm sure that one day, Crow will find that beast And give it a good sound thrashing For, a hunter never gives up a fight
