Onlookers were sure the ship was going to crash straight into one of the other ships, however most vessels managed to escape damage except for a rough dent to a ship half the poorly steered ships size.
The captain, furious at his now damaged ship, gripped his sword with only three fingers and his thumb. He had one empty eye socket and a lopsided grimace. His nose was as beaky as the parrot that sat on his broad shoulders and he stared at the ship with eyes as cold as the sea, as he was seen swinging his rapier around in loud protest on the way to the tall ship that finally had lowered its anchor. Onlookers gathered to watch from below. It is said two figures lowered the bridge and let the captain on without protest, but then went on their way into Roaringshore. One with a curious limp, the other with a dark green cowl over his head.
Rumor across Roaringshore has it the captain found a ship full of its crew, all of which were disoriented and ill. He found the ships captain sloped over his desk in his office and very dead, his flesh already in a state of unnaturally rapid decay. Several pirates were feverish, some had been overcome by severe bouts of shaking, and below deck the engineers were found wretching and gripped by an intense pain, their eyes having turned milky white. It was said there were no rhyme or rythm to the state of the crew, except every single one being in a trance - unable to speak or hear.

Additionally, the captain found an uncorked bottle that had been conspicuously left out in the open. It had three teardrops in a triangle painted onto it. Most onlookers got a glimpse of it at least. Different accounts spread across Roaringshore, all recollected with just another crooked detail the next didn't recall. Some claim the ship to have been cursed, others say foul play were at hand.
