<Wrong question! Spirits are the obvious solution, but that's far
too fast and easy So the first question is why don't spirits work?
Have this particular bunch of mostali done something to offend the local
sea god, for example? >
Now I come to think about this, I have to wonder about The Closing Does this affect spirit-borne communications across the sea as well as ship-borne?
How easy is spirit-borne communication at intercontinental ranges?
And hence how widespread?
Are the dwarfs of Iron Mountain in touch with those at Greatway?
Ditto those on that island off Pamaltela whose name I forget?
Can messenger spirits be taught the Open Seas ritual?
Yours surrounded by empty cans and lots of worms,
