You could sense a wave of unease wash over your crew. They were bloodied by battle already, but this would be the first time most of them have ever taken on an orcish warband. Most of them have killed sure, and fought warriors of their equal, but orcs were a whole different foe. However shortly after you gave your orders Tayang was quick to follow up and start delegating tasks to your men. "You heard him men! Prepare for battle! John, Hector, arm your bows! Hurrik, give us fire! Derrick, Oliver, you two with me!" Everyone scrambled to their positions and got themselves readied for battle. You could see Nyx casting a spell over herself, creating some mage armor. Kulee whispered a prayer as he turned the wheel of the ship and head in the direction of the orcs.

It would only take a minute before the ships would threaten to clash. "They're aiming to ram us!" Hurrik shouted out in warning. Sure enough those orcs were going straight towards the prow of the ship. Orc warships had an armed front precisely for these sorts of maneuvers. However Kulee wasn't about to let them get it easy; with the winds pushing from the west he maneuvered the ship in such a way that the two vessels would sail past one another. The orcs threw javelins while your crew returned fire, however, neither attacks managed to harm anyone aside from the ships themselves. "This is it! Get ready!" Kulee shouted as the winds from the storms gave the Kraken the tailwind it needed to move with a burst of speed, enabling to to move around to get parallel to the orcish warship.

"This is it lads! You've plundered and bloodied your blades before, but today you'll prove to the gods your worth!" Tayang shouted as the two ships collided together, jostling everyone on both sides. From your position you could see that the orcish warship had at least ten warriors on it, as well as many galley slaves chained to the side manning the oars. A mixture of dwarves, gnomes, and halflings. They were obviously abused and malnourished but don't seem eager to fight, keeping their heads down. Of the orcs, one looked like something akin to it's captain, given his fancy horn pouldron.
