#RPGaDay2025 31: Reward
Mimi never sees Prin again, but always scents her as the latest trap is closing around her. Is she losing, or playing a different game to Mimi? The notion sometimes sours Mimi's fun.
Absent the Salt Court's predations, Elausha flourishes. No more raids. An island haven.

In the years to follow, scuttlebutt spreads of the tricksy sea sprite who tangles the Salt Court ever and again in their own nets. They say she stole cunning from the Court's own spymaster and left them with none. The Court is still mighty – but these days, not feared.

Once quit of the flooded fort, the Gargant pod follow the current to their lonely sister, Mimi's first freed.
Mimi speaks to Elausha in an echo shell: I bought you time; use it. The Gargants consent to carry the message. This pod will mate on Elausha's shores from now on.

#RPGaDay2025 28: Suspense
The stampede of the Gargants through the lower decks of Fort Abyss feels righteous. The Salt Court's comeuppance at the claws of the creatures they presumed to weaponise: it's poetry.
Too poetic? Too neat? Did she evade Prin's blade too easily?
No. Mimi's in control.
