piratejournal | 001 Written Introduction

I've heard a lot about this journal and how some of these things work, so I guess I will introduce myself. My name is Edward Elric, and like all of you, this isn't the world I'm from.

I have every intention of going home in a relatively short amount of time. I'm not interested in going on a pre-designed treasure hunt to do it though. I don't think we should be just doing whatever these people 'Scurvey Dog' and 'Davy Jones say we should do. I don't know anything about sailing yet, but I'm about to pick up as many books as I can. I'm going to get a ship of my own, because I don't really want to follow this little 'game'.

If this sounds agreeable to you and you want to sail with me, then by all means let me know. I'm sure my first mate Winry Rockbell and myself could use the help. You won't need to worry about food, Winry makes a really great apple pie.

Aside from that, I'm interested in hearing about these strange, other worlds. What can you tell me about where you come from?

Well trust me, if there's another way out of here - for everyone - I'll point everyone there and take it. I'd rather have some kind of goal in mind than sail around aimlessly, though.

I don't think it's any less silly then chasing down a perhaps, infinite number of shards, but I'll let you know what I find.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that sometimes you just have to chase what's in front of you, even if it's not really what you're looking for.
