shagbark turns off the blender and pours out the second batch.
He attaches the pump to the first keg and pumps a few ounces into the first heated mug. the mix hisses and bubbles as it comes to temperature.
Now that is good wassail.

shagbark hooks the preheater in line with the pump and pumps out six more glasses which he sets on the decorated wassail table.

shagbark returns with a large box. Out of it he pulls a rack which he affixes to the side of the table. It has two rows One for clean glasses, and one for dirty ones. He reaches into the box and pulls out twelve hightech self heating mugs they magnetically attach themselves to the table.

I expect they will. I expect to see Pele in the nest any day. What about our other pirates. Are they still wandering about the ship somewhere?

Pele flies in and drops a fish on the floor by the table
