One-Eyed Red



Avast!! One-Eyed Red here. Yup, now ye know me phiz and ye'll allus know where I be when I'm belowdecks. Just letting it be known that I have acquired some of the finest Lemurian Brandy, aged to a turn it is. Along with ye're evenin' ration o' grog, ye'll be enjoyin' brandy so smooth that ye'll fergit moanin' o' th' wind in th' riggins.

Nay, lads, 'tis better to hear 'em moan than feel a bean sidhe's scream through the riggin's. Some poor bugger will be washed off th' deck f'sure, th' wind an' th' seas'll be that rough.

What anyone what sails the seas'll tell ye, is this, best t'feel a hum from th' riggin's through y'feet. That tells ye 'tis fair, clear, and a good breeze t'fill th' sails an' a gentle sea t'sail.

Ye nivver wanna hav'de riggin go silent on ye. Still sails're the brother of becalmed, sumthin' ye don' wanna be. Now, becalmed sailors can be a bloodthirsty lot, believin' in nithin' an' no-one but their own madness. Silent riggin's have heard the ugliest folk can be to one 'nother. Nahhh, I don't hold wi' th' belief that riggin's that've been becalmed are bad luck. Them riggin's will be seekin' the best o' everthin' ever after.

Now, I must go an' start a sweet t'go wi' th' evenin meal. Ye can snivel all ye want, it'll not get ye a word o' the special sweet I be makin'!!

I hope the crew are sensible enough not to mess with you One-Eyed Red. What fun Gwen. That eye patch is most becoming.
