Flour on the Rigging

When the sea breeze died and trapped five rival fleets in the Great Narrows, only one vessel kept the peace: The Paoa, a mammoth sailing ship converted into a floating tidal bakery. Running giant millstones and roaring brick ovens in the hold, four former rivals find themselves bound together by the System’s [Master Baker] pathways. Tane grinds the wheat, Ruatara kneads with iron fists, Ariki balances volatile yeast casks, and Hani brings sweet island spices. As hungry captains circle like sharks, this unlikely crew must level up their ovens, craft magical pastries, and keep the whole strait well-fed, warm, and delightfully civil.
