3. A group of 2d6+2 sailors and fishermen are sitting on the deck of the ship, singing sea shanties and drinking ale. They will tell the party that they are sailing to an island called Blackwater, which is located several days' travel away from their current location. They will warn the party that, once they arrive at Blackwater, they must be careful and try not to anger any of the island's inhabitants, who are known to be violent and dangerous. The party can ask the sailors and fishermen for more details about Blackwater and its inhabitants, but they will not offer any information beyond what they have already told the party.
