The Javelin had a lot of force behind it, even when struck by the man's new blade it was only enough to offset the strong homing capabilites enough to narrowly miss him, but the long projectile found itself lodged into one of the ship's masts behind him . Which means it could be retrieved later.  The strange portal that the man withdrew his sword from seemed to have some sort of reverse wind effect with was sucking up some of the flames around the ship. The rising fires were extinguished but some of the flickering cinders still remained and started to regrow again. Magical Dragon's fire was a lot harder to put out completely than regular flames.

The caltrops were so sharp that the literally stuck into the deck of the ship, impaled themselves into the rotten wood which held them there in place. Rodetta smiled as she re-seathed her sword and pulled out her crossbow! Shooting a bolt at the man's torso on the quickdraw, needless to say, these flew much faster than the more powerful javelin.
