—Wind is gone, Captain.
—I see... Strange. The weather was excellent few hours ago.
—Captain,
—?
—I see black clouds far away...
—Send one of the crew to the crow's nest to confirm.
(10 minutes later)
—(shouts) What do you see?
—(shouts) What!
—(shouts louder) What! Do! You! See!
—(screams) Shiver me timbers! Storm is coming!
—(shouts) Climb down here! We need to tell him!
(1 minute later)
—Captain, the storm will be here in a matter of time. We can wait for the storm and use the wind it brings to go back.
—We cannot wait for the wind to come back, that storm will screw us right away.
—Then we can use the paddle wheels to move as much as we can, so we can dock to the nearest land.
—I don't see any land around us on the map.
—Captain, that's normal. You can't find that land on any maps at all.
—But... how?
—I'm not sure. An alchemist told me that it was protected by magic.
—An alchemist?
—It's complicated... she's my... my friend.
—I see. So we are the first ones to discover these lands?
—Few people found this place but they never returned. It's just a rumour though.
—Rumors are a joke in these days... Do you know the name of this "protected land" ?
—No, but people call it "spawn"
—Well, we don't have any other choices. Tell the crew to insert more coal to the paddle wheels. We're going to spawn!
Firehive is carved out of Ebonized Lignum Vitae and Bleached Sitka Spruce. These materials are hand picked and used together to make sure that Firehive is both sturdy, and light. These refined wood pieces are so scarce, that they can only be bought in bulk from a small number of woodsman.
Firehive is not just a wind powered ship, it's also powered by steam. It uses multiple sails for extra maneuverability and sacrifices cannons to place two paddle wheels at each side instead, to bring valuables to you as swiftly as possible; to become the perfect merchant ship.
Firehive is not an exceptional ship just because of its speed, but also because of its hard working crew. This is why The Captain cares so much about the comfort of his crew. In the lounge, passengers and crew members can sit together, talk and play games. (playing Follow-the-Leader-of-the-Yellow One's-Cult is forbidden in the ship and anyone caught playing will be forced to jump into the sea to swim back to the land by themselves.)
There are 7 easter eggs about several in game bases and movie quotes you can find in/on/around the ship.
