The Lights of Candle Archipelago (WIP)

After a long journey at sea, you finally drop anchor just of the coast of the mysterious Candle Archipelago. With excitement, you whisk up your bag and jog over to the first rowboat, tossing your bag into it along with those of the crew members going ashore with you. Before you can get to the ladder to lower yourself into the boat, a course, heavy hand lands firmly on your shoulder. Turning and looking up at the tall, gruff captain, he looks down at you with a concerned smile.
"Hold on there. Don't be so eager to get onto that island."
Your face screws up into an almost defiant, confused expression.
"I know about the natives. No need to worry."
He shakes his head and his grin disappears. "I'm not speaking of the natives. There's... something else out there. It's been nearly four years since I was here last..." Trailing off, he reaches into the pouch on his belt and procures a very small skull and hands it gingerly to you. "If you encounter... whatever it was that I did years ago, you might need this."
Still confused, but not wanting to be rude and turn down a gift, you smile at him and take it, putting it into your own belt pouch with a quiet "Thank you." He lets go of your shoulder with a nod, but yells after you as you begin to descend the ladder, "See you in three months."
