Week 28

[scurveydog]

Hain't gonna have the weather this time 'round. Hope ye lot are doin' well wi' the navy or not gettin' yerselves too hurt. I'll be takin' a leave of absence ta see if I can help stop this bedamned plague from spreadin'. We haven't had an outbreak like this fer thirty years-- fortunately we know how ta stop it but I'd keep a fair distance from Dermaevern if I were ye. I wouldn' take a risk on Blackfisk either.


Afore I set out, I hae a little time fer a question ta which ye know the rules of. Ta be specific, though since damned near all 'o ye seem ta hae this problem. I hain't here ta be yer nursmaid or explain ta ye th' ups an' downs 'o friendship. In other words, if ye can ask any 'o yer mates the same question and expect to get answer, do it and don't waste me time.

Where can I find the least guarded treasure horde near Empezia?

[scurveydog]

Ye do realize that anyone can read the answer ta this question and that ye'll have no chance against th' stronger crews who may have little compunction at gettin' to it first or gettin' it after ye've got it no matter what they ha'e ta do ta ye...

[grizzly_tea]

Oh I'm well aware. You see, pirates are the sorts who would likely fight each other to the death for any bit of coin, and in this regard I might get them to thin their own ranks by going after it. If not, I might be able to sway one of the larger crews into helping me retrieve it if anyone else is too intimidated to do so.

Your looking for treasure? We're being hunted by an enemy navy.

[grizzly_tea]

Perhaps... but one cannot get far without the necessary funds.

[scurveydog]

Oh like yer questions ha'e been th' height 'o brilliance. Ye hain't gotta leg ta stand on here, and ye look like an idiot tryin'.

[havesomedeath]

Aw, dealing with a plague sounds fun! I wish I could see it in action, nya ha!

I doubt Mana would ever let me, though. Too bad...

[scurveydog]

Suffer an' die.

[havesomedeath]

Hm? Did I say something wrong?

[Why the hell won't someone take his journal away from him, for the love of Naga...]

...Not that I mind suffering or dying very much.

[abundantlove]

Henry-san.

[havesomedeath]

Huh? Yeah?

[He's really getting the feeling that he screwed up somewhere, but he's not sure exactly where that might be.]

[abundantlove]

What can you tell us about the plague, Dog-san?

[scurveydog]

Question's already been asked and it hain't going to bother ye unless it spreads or ye are a bigger buncha idiot'sn normal and go there yerselves. I will say if any 'o ye gets a high fever lasti'n more'n two days, ye best see somethin' an' stay far away from any other ships.

[abundantlove]

Mnn. Very well. I'll keep my crew on alert.

[grizzly_tea]

Ah... My apologies Mana. I hadn't meant to take the question ahead of you, but this was one of the few opportunities I've had to ask the first question.

[abundantlove]

Mn. It's alright Maribelle-san. I suppose we'll have to find out some other way.

[slugly]

So the plague is spreading even more.

[She would say 'I told you so' but she has manners unlike Naruto.]

[scurveydog]

Aye it is. Hopefully it won' go further or we'll all be in trouble.

[slugly]

[Who was asking for treasure when a plague was spreading around and they needed to know what the hell it was.....

There has to be a loophole]

If you're in trouble too, then it would be beneficial if whatever information was known about the plague was shared with a medic who could develop an immunogen.

[hostclubshadowking]

[He should make his own remarks, rather than just the apology for his crew member.]

Take care of yourself. Even knowing how to handle an illness, there are risks, so I hope you stay well.

[scurveydog]

Well fortunately if ye survive the first round ye're immune. S'why I'm goin'. They're callin' all survivors in ta help afore it gets outta control. Thank'ee fer yer concern.

A plague, lovely. Well, it isn't as if I haven't survived those before.

[The gears in her mind whirl. She looks at the first entry on her journal, furrowing her brow in thought. What question can she ask this strange
"knower of secrets" that she can't ask any of her "crewmates"? (Not that she has any yet, but the point is moot.) Obviously, the question has to be something that no one can answer.]

[Finally . . .]

This Davy Jones wants us to seek the pieces of this gem. Once we have the completed shards, will he actually let us use it?

[grizzly_tea]

I hate to be the bearer of ill news, but I thought I should be the one to tell you, rather than have scurvy dog scold you for asking a question when a question has already been answered in this entry. Scurvy dog has a very strict policy of first come, first serve, when it comes to answers.

Oi, Dog! Take a break or something!

Let 'em fend for themselves!
