REALLY long post of LONG and stuff

Brooke nodded his head in acknowledgement as she assisted him in removing shards from his coat. "Of course, I should have realized that you must be running a little late as it is. So let us begin at once!" Brooke exclaimed as he started to run to his room to fetch his violin. But then he thought better of it given what happened last time he tried to play, and he wasn't sure if Mr. Norland had lost his strange powers of fixing things yet. So instead he headed towards the side of the ship where Bianchi had first came aboard.

"Right. How much do you know about Sirens?" He asked not actually waiting for an answer. "You see this method of singing and the song we shall sing is much like that. It will drive the Sea Kings into madness and draw them towards us much like the sirens made sailors crash into the rocks from which they sang. However it requires an absolute focus to keep them from snapping out of it otherwise you might end up with drastic consequences." To accentuate his point on drastic he flailed his arms about a little.

"If sucessful we should have a sea king that is paralyzed from the haunting tunes. Note that I say one because summoning multiple sea kings with this song is highly dangerous and less likely to be in a transfixed state. At no time should this song be sung without a partner who can deal with the Sea Kings due to the fact that they will only stay charmed for as long as you are singing. Not to mention the fact that you must have an absolute focus it is unlikely that you'd be able to fight while singing this. Now that you know most of the safety precautions I shall explain the song in a little more detail. There are four parts to this song and all of them are very important... except maybe the last one which you should never use due to the dangerous nature of it." At this thought Brooke felt shivers go down his spine at the thought of the first time he had failed to sing this song properly.

"The first part of this song is what attracts the Sea Kings to your vicinity and that particular part is what requires the much higher notes. The second part is the part that actually charms the Sea Kings into a transfixed state of motionlessness. The third part and one of the most important is one that will drive them away in case you summoned more than you bargained for, you failed in charming them, or you simply landed in a nest of them and you'd like them to not eat you. Now as for the last part, this part enrages Sea Kings into a mad frenzy trying to kill anything and everything they can find. Such as oh I don't know, marines, pirates, young maidens, each other... anything really. The reason this particular tune is so dangerous is that you must either find a way to kill all the Sea Kings that you have enraged which is no easy feat when you have made them more angry and powerful, or the other alternitive is to sing the charming part AND the repelling one at the same time which is quite impossible for a human being which is why having a partner that knows the tunes with you is a good idea."
