We tie an unconscious Dennis up with rope, and drag him along while we walk in the southern isles. We dump him in a nearby fruit stand, and take off running. We reach the master's home, and I knock on the door. A Guard ushers us inside.

The palace is huge. A king sits on his throne, his staff resting in his clenched hand.

" My lord." I begin. I curtsy.

He shakes his head." You need not curtsy in front of me. Tell me, what do you wish?"

" Erm...ER..." I begin.

Leo comes to my defense.

" Your highness, we are pirates of the dark waters. We would like to reclaim the isles of our father's father's. We would like to become allegiances with you, and we wish to seek your assistance. "

He bows, but the king waves him off. " I shall send my strongest men to help you. You have my hospitality for a week, to prepare. Come to dinner at the great tall. Dinner will be served at seven sharp. Please, make your self comfortable. You are dismissed."
