Quest Journal #7 – Port Regal

pregalThe Marleybone Colony

Welcome to the Port Regal Skyway! This is a colony of the canine clan from Marleybone. Dogs, foxes and a like make the colony their home. It’s a skyway linked to from the Tradewinds Skyway. It’s not a stormgate world. It is  protected however, by a lighthouse island near the Scurvy Dog Hideout.

To get here, you’ll need to complete quests in Cool Ranch that send you off to look for Carolina/Mustang Sally. In that quest, you’ll end up traveling to the Scurvy Dog Hideout where you’ll eventually meet up with Captain Dan in the Temple Hideout. He’ll help you gain access through the guarded gate and allow you to Journey to Port Regal.

As you head over to the lighthouse in the Tradewinds Skyway, you don’t actually dock at the island. As you approach, the Inspector will send a message while you’re aboard ship saying “Here now, you’ve captured the Brass Monkey? Well done! Take this little monkey to the Governor in Port Regal for his just desserts”.

With that you’ll sail right on through the Skyway border and enter the Port Regal Skyway!  Welcome to the Marleybone Colony.  Continue reading

Quest Journal #6 – Journey To Port Regal

marleybone-pirateThe Adventures Of The Scurvy Dogs

There are two parts to Cool Ranch the way I see it. Both are pretty long and involved. Cool Ranch – Part I ends when you take on the Duck of Death and defeat him. That gets you closer to a missing map piece held by Captain Blood. But for now you’ll be sent back to Skull Island for a bit where you’ll work on getting to Port Regal.

As an FYI, you still need to go through the Tumbleweed and Haunted Skyways in Cool Ranch. But you haven’t received a quest to do that yet. Don’t worry. You’ll get there.

In Cool Ranch you spoke to Don Rafael who told you he had information. But he couldn’t give it to you until you completed a favor fwor him. To reunite his adopted son Don Rodrigo with Rafael’s daughter Carolina. You know her as Mustang Sally. It’s been a long time since you’ve seen Sally in Flotsam however. So you’ll need to head back to the Flotsam Skyway and talk to One-Eyed Jack. Continue reading
