Bring me yer dead and dying, Admiral. I should like to laugh in Sparrow's face one last time before surrendering to your eternal hell.


...He is dead, is he not?

Why the interest in the dead?

[tentacruelest]

It being my duty to ferry the dead from this life to another, it's only right I should see them first.

[gorefiend]

You're a little late, then. I am dead three times over and this is the first I've seen of your... unique face.

[tentacruelest]

Undoubtedly. Did yeh die on the sea?

[gorefiend]

In battle and by cowardly assassination. But always on land.

[tentacruelest]

Then it's no wonder we never crossed paths. I take only what the sea gives up.

[gorefiend]

An important assignment. Have you no counterpart for the rest of us? It would make the whole thing seem more orderly if someone was waiting.

[tentacruelest]

If there is a counterpart, I've never met 'im. I've been a sailor most of me life and all of me death.

[gorefiend]

Did you die on the sea?

[tentacruelest]

Aye. I did.

[gorefiend]

And who met you?

[tentacruelest]

No one. This Barge. And before it, I died by me own hand and met the sea.
