Semir Grey, off the Argonian coast.

Semir Grey stood at the bow of his Redguard Raider as it casually sailed across the sea. Fog was all around them though the lanterns at the ship's ends were doused.
He ran a hand trough his grey hair that had the feel of dry sand.
,,Dang, where could that merchant have gone? Why did it have to approach Argonia with this damn fog?" He grumbled.
,,Lookout! Anything new?!" He then shouted to the man at the top of the mast.

The Lookout continued to scan the misty surroundings.
,,Not a thing, cap! Wait........lanterns to our left!"

Semir walked tot the left side of the ship and peered out into the fog. There it was, so dim he could barely see it. Judging by the space between the two lanterns, the ship was about the right size.
,,That's the one. Uncover the sails! Flank them!" He shouted at the man behind the rudder and pointed at the soon to be plundered vessel.

The sails were unfolded and the Blue Serpent lifted its gracious hull out of the water, ripping through the waves as it approached its victim. Semir rechecked the Cutlass he'd strapped to his belt. Around him, his fellow crew of 'treasurehunters' had decked out in full combat gear.
,,Archers! Insurance!" He ordered. Four of the archers took aim and released their arrows. With a soft thunk, they stuck into the merchant's hull. The arrows had been coated in highly flammable oil. At a single command, Semir could now put the merchant aflame. It was their insurance for when the negotiations went bad.

As the ships came near each other, the fog appeared to vanish. Semir let out a violent curse as the reinforced bow of the Serpent crashed into the other ship's side.

With a running leap, he moved over to the new ship. His katana flashed down, cutting through the back of the strange creature. He spun around and stabbed a second one in the heart. Another spin and he blocked a viciously curved sword.
,,These aren't merchants! Put these damn.......snakes on fire!" He shouted over the increasing noise of battle. The snakelike creatures had gotten over their surprise and now fought back with a skill at swordplay that rivalled the one the mostly Redguard crew was so proud off.

Semir continued his duel with his adversary. He jumped back continuesly, avoiding the katana till he'd made it all the way to the stern. Before him, the ship's bow was wrapped in blazing flames. The rowers on the Blue Serpent had begun to pull it's bow out of the hole it caused in the other ship's side.

The Breton jumped on the railing. One more time the katana sliced through the air. Semir stepped to the side and pinned the sword to the railing with his boot.
,,You're getting too annoying. Die, scaleface." He sneered and stabbed the creature. He turned to the flag hanging next to him and ripped it off the pole.
,,I'll be taking this. Alright men! Retreat!" He shouted and dove into the sea, followed by his men.




(Long intro but yes, he attacked an Akaviri vessel.)
