PSA:

Don't sail into the Mistlands against the wind (or at any time). That was my latest moron moment. A Gjall saw me and I just couldn't get away...I didn't even have a mistlight on me. I have no idea what was going through my head at the time.

PS - turns out there was an infected Mine nearby too! I swear, if there's a stupid way to die in this game I've done it.
