The party, having fended off Mother Superior and her knife-weilding assistants, then moved to secure the building. One nun, apparently new, was found near the kitchen unarmed and not attacking, except to ask for protection. The rest, however, tried to draw her pursuers into a trap, but the Naval Officers proved to much for them, with the marines arriving just in time to accept their surrender!
Under questioning, the nuns revealed the presence of a pirate base in the canyons nearby, and a 3 day reconnaisance mission located just one such cave. The party then agreed to split up, with the Naval Officers heading back to the Captain Flak to wait for any escaping ship in orbit, while the marines assault the cave.
It remains to be seen if the marines can survive without the Naval Officers to protect them…

Well, the Marines have a habit of shooting each other whenever they get into a firefight, so I’m guessing it could get messy…
Even if it is an empty cave…
Especially an empty cave! Ricochets…
And since they are marines, it might take them a while to work out that no-one is shooting back! They could empty their entire munitions before they realize that the rounds hitting them are their own, since they don’t have HE rounds that might make it obvious! Definitely a potential TPK lol
