"Right. Um, Randolf? I think you'll probably be better at dousing the flames, it being about moving a large amount and all, sorta attacking them with water. But I'll try I guess."
Attempt to douse the flames via the sword. If I fail then pass the blade to Randolf to let him make an attempt of his own.
RGU can auto me if I don't respond to a turn within 24 hours of it posting.
Name: Nina Morellis
Appearance: A young, red-haired woman, green eyes, somewhat unkempt. She's had Adam for as long as she could remember, and has a bit of a reputation as a harmless nut. The town guard are okay with Nina though, occasionally getting her help keeping a mage secured by having her drain their mana so they can't cast. Since they don't have a proper magehunter available, having a local civilian channeler they can bring in as needed is a big help. And Nina tries to be on her best behavior with them to keep their relations good. Nina herself works as a healer, living out in the poor part of town, and has an erratic schedule based on the needs of those who want her help. so she has a lot of free time, but also gets woken up in the middle of the night a lot. add in Adam's occasional antics and she doesn't get to have a stable sleep schedule.

Nina, accompanied by Randolf, walks around town, staying near the water's edge, and manipulates jets of water to put out the fires . She does this relatively easily and within maybe an hour the town has been effectively doused.
The citizens seem to be calming down as well, at least those close enough to see the fires going out and hear the all clears. Someone is ringing a church bell somewhere.

You attempt to both pry and pull the lid open...you get a little progress, the lid does shift a bit, but it doesn't open. Hmmm. Might get it if you keep trying...or maybe you could use a big rock or something to increase the weight of your pull?
Check the Ghost Charm and follow it if it shows anything. Meanwhile, ask about casually concerning religious burial places, especially defunct ones - like maybe an abandoned monastic village or something.

You ask if there are any good graveyards around. Ones that no one cares about. Ones that are not well tended. Or guarded. Or monitored at all really. Sadly you get no answers.
Look around for valuables. Try to use my magical senses, presumably by holding things, walls, etcetera, to find anything that might be 'alive' or something that is magical.
Gather things that look reasonably valuable, but try for a variety of things, not just things that are worth money. Some other stuff I care about:
1. Personal weapons or equipment. Probably some militia members or mercenaries who could use additional gear. Dunno if I'll find any, but might as well look.
2. Intact equipment or components. Artifacts work on Thaum, right? Even if I can't use it for mana, some of that stuff or things that would convert things into thaum would be valuable. I'd like to try my hand at alchemy at some point, so
3. Items that seem shiny or ornate, even if broken junk.
4. Items with inexplicable properties. Such as things that are unusually hot, greasy, etcetera. They might have the keys to learning words in the future or otherwise be useful.
Most valuable would be mana batteries, but I have no idea what they look like or feel like.
Lastly, if there's space left, get a few chunks of what looks to be good steel, for possible reshaping or transmogrification via Steel spell.

Notes: Improving physical stats with strengthen, d4->d6 is d6, d6->d8 is d12, d8->d10 is d20 or more.
Mental stats are possible, but harder or more complicated.
1. All of these guns could be used; they're currently bolted in place but if you could free them and modify them to fire normally with a trigger, they'd work like any rifle. Tons of ammo for them too.
2.Nothing here that seems to run on Thaum or anything magical, least as you know it.
3. You find a large scale gyrotourbillon buried in the guts of the ship. It is still ticking away and seems like it might be worth a good deal considering its complexity.
4. You find what seems to be a boiler or some kind of heat system; its been badly damaged but the bottom of the heater is covered in silvery pellets that are still very hot. There is a dim blue glow around them.
There's plenty of steel and other metals around including some kind of odd metal that kind of looks like woven black fabric but is as hard as steel.
Prepare for some boarding action, try to get into a fight against two pirates at once.

The attempts to hide the barge apparently don't work because the other ship keeps coming. Once it reaches a distance of about 150 feet it suddenly launches something into the sky and a moment later everything is brightly illuminated by a flare. As this happens the other ship opens fire: No cannons as of yet but rifle shots ring out in the otherwise quiet night and bits of deck splinter around you. You see several men fall, but the crew is firing back, filling the oddly illuminated scene with strobing muzzle flashes. You take cover behind a large crate as the gunfire continues.
Wow. Wasted those ingredients, tore up your rags...just...fucked it all up.
How much was wasted in total? For bookkeeping porpoises.
Put my ear to the wall and listen, can I hear anything? (note: Darwin would do this either until he hears something or until at least a minute has passed, in case Pan can't post before this turn).
Could you describe how the wall shenanigans looked like from Darwin's POV? And is the hall blocked in that direction now, or just the door?

Now, here's the thing. I assume you're staying quite far back, so as not to potentially get gassed. The curving and irregular shape of the hall means you cannot directly see Eclair from where you would be in order to stay a safe distance away. So I assume you didn't see anything. However, you heard the flamethrower and then silence. No sounds other than Eclair's breathing. No sound of walls forming or sounds from Eclair being sharply cut off.
