Ultima IV: Humble!

That's more like it.

After the disaster of infinite daemons, I restored my game and kept sailing west like nothing had happened. West around the Isle of Deeds and Serpent's Hold, through the Keys of Honor, until I hit the Valorian Isles, and then went north.

 
Spiritwood archipelago, NW of Skara Brae. Never could find a way onto the north island.

North up the coast of Spiritwood, north through the Lost River, around Empath Abbey, then east again to Lost Hope Bay, which I mapped out, hoping I might find something.

I didn't, but here's Covetous by sea.

Continuing east, then south, I re-reached the Shrine of Humility, and this time, knowing what was there, I blew the horn before entering, and the daemons did not bother me.




I continue to circle around the island's coast, and come to an opening.


That's a lot of pirates.

Hostile intent is evident, and I prepare for battle. Lots of battle.

The sword-wielding pirates are no problem for my party in close quarters, but my ship takes so much cannonshot that I'm forced to abandon it midway through the fight. Thankfully, there are lots of replacements to pick from.

My reward is passage to a poisonous, lava-filled cove.

I think I am not supposed to be here yet.

Nasty!

My world map:

The Isle of the Abyss kinda looks like a rabbit, doesn't it?
