The gods know I seriously doubt this world will fall into a repetitive wheel regarding the shit it throws at us. But I suppose it doesn't hurt to be careful and given that I know some people work better with actual warnings than with calls for their common sense...

For all of those who weren't here last year, in case no one has told you. Around those days, last year, we encountered several "ghost ships" while sailing through a thick mist. If that were to happen again, beware of them, those ghosts couldn't be harmed in any way as far as I know, yet if they touched someone they could change them. Or even outright kill them.

Now that I think of it, other than a day in which everyone talked like bad pirate imitations, the ghost ships were the first really strange shit I saw in this world. Not counting islands, of course, those are a whole different category. [Speaking of which...] Anyone knows any other way to destroy an island that doesn't involve burning it? Or at least a way to destroy the plant life there.

[Not that he plans to return just yet, not even to get rid of the flowers. But it never hurts to know.]

Hey, I climbed on a ghost ship once!

It didn't end well.

... Do I want to ask how "it didn't end well"?

[Actually he kind of wants to ask, because unless he's being an idiot -which could happen- Namur wasn't around last October yet. So he must be talking about some other ghost ship.]

Well, see I figured I'd go say hello t' ol' Davy Jones when his ship was sailin' 'longside ours, 'member that? Yeah, so. Climbed up thinkin' I'd get t' at least get one good swing in at the bastard 'fore he done me in, but...

[Namur shivers unseen. He's hazy on the details after climbing aboard. All he knows is he definitely for sure died and it was awful.]

Anyway after that I got dumped back at Port Chance, picked up by Thatch then by them damn slavers an' then, well. Y' get the idea.

So that's how you ended there, I had wondered about that.

[And he remembers that, and thinking about trying to do what Namur did but deciding that it was too easy of a chance and thus probably a trap. A trap he wasn't in a mood of getting into.]

You're banned from getting close to ghost ships.

[Nevermind that it's not like he can do that, or even enforce it. Ikki knows and it's clear in his tone that he, unfortunately, can't be serious about that. One can almost hear him pouting, except that he isn't.]

Sheheheh! Don't even worry 'bout it, man. Might not be the smartest but I ain't dumb. Gotta get stronger first, then we'll try takin' 'em on 'gain.

... I could say something about how you're denying your own statement in one breath. But I'll settle with the fact that thinking you could get your hands on Davy Jones so easily is prove enough.

[Pause.]

Well, you're still definitively smarter than some of our other brothers.
