SISTENE

There was no time to waste, yes, but on the other hand pursuing the spirit without making proper preparations would be incredibly dangerous. Xannon The Great took the time to wrap their hat in tin foil just in case the warning from the Jormungandrs might somehow prove correct, and regardless it probably couldn't hurt. At the very least they felt a little more fashionable.

Xannon The Great considered their situation. As it stood there were a number of problems in their path to acquiring the spirit:

1. Being stuck on this island in the middle of the worst storm they had ever experienced. They would need to find a way to the mainland.
   
2. Any other magically inclined individuals who might also be seeking to tame the spirit and who may prove hostile if encountered. Having some means of combat could prove crucial.
   
3. Reaching the spirit itself. The emergency broadcast had described a floating being, which was most likely the spirit itself. Xannon would need a way to reach it in order to tame it.
   
4. Having the mental fortitude to dominate the spirit and managing to do so.

A potential fifth problem occurred to the machine as they admired their fashionable new look. They had never heard of a robot commanding a spirit before. They hoped that their non-organic nature would not be a barrier in the taming process as there was little they could do about this particular issue.

Okay so the idea with this particular adventure is I want to keep it open ended. You have a goal, you have some obstacles, how you deal with them is up to you. I'm not railroading any specific solutions or encounters. You can potentially ally yourself with other magically inclined individuals who are also trying to tame this spirit or go it alone.

Since I'm trying to be flexible much of Xannon's resources and relationships with the people of Freetown (an island of crooks and outcasts) are not set in stone. Feel free to invent and if it makes sense I'll try to find a way to make it work or adapt it to fit the world.
