BUCCANEERS CAMP 1.     Exit to Wilderness 2.     Slave Pen 3.     Animal Pen 4.     Buccaneers Captain 5.     Man with Pass This sector is considered cleared when you rescue the heir. Your mission consists in rescuing a baby captured by the buccaneers. In this area you can freely rest in the square just north of the captain’s quarters. There are many ways to fulfil the mission; you can sneak into the pen and free the boy or make a diversion freeing the animals in the pen or directly buy the boy from the buccaneers. The best, but longest, way is to wipe out the entire buccaneers force to grab some very powerful magical items in the process. Go to 5 and meet a man that will gladly sell you a pass. With this new item approach 4 and show it to the guard to gain entrance. Once  inside  immediately  attack  the  captain.  It’s  a  though  battle  but  the  items  on  the  captain  are tasty. Grab all and leave. Rest and heal. Enter any of the barracks and attack the guards. This action trigger the alarm and you’ll  face  several  waves  of  buccaneers,  but  because  the  captain  is  already  dead  you  can  easily dispatch them with some “Fireball” spells. When the battle is over you take possess of the camp and free all the slaves. Heal everywhere you want and leave the camp to return to Phlan and collect your reward. You’re invited by the Council Clerk to go in the south room to meet Cadorna again. Do that and you’ll get the commission to act as a diplomat in Zhentil Keep. Take a boat to the west Wilderness again and ride to the Keep (3, 32).
