This is an open call to my crew.

[is he too lazy to send individual private messages, or does he just not care? Por que no los dos? It's very piratey either way, Law sitting with the flag on his wall framing him perfectly like a real captain.]

It may be too late to stop some of you from throwing yourself at the gods, but I don't need that kind of help. Gathering food and water is a novice-level task, our ship is in progress, and I have no need for magical sails when we have a magic-user who can control weather. If you absolutely must go to them with hands out like beggars, at least get the one thing we can't manage on our own: the containers for the fragments. [thoughtful pause, shifty eyes] A map wouldn't hurt.

The gods seem to believe we're incapable of this task even after we've demonstrated our strength and hardiness in that two-week battle against the Null. Had we been transported to the jungle or to the snow, I would happily take advice from those who've lived extensively in such climates and have experience. But, we're in a world of oceans and islands, and that's where my expertise comes in. We can do this. Believe in me.

If you've already latched onto one of them, at least make your own damn decisions about what you're willing to feel. Don't let yourself get carried away. Leave the god-provided boats and provisions to the rookies who are going to want to make their own voyages.

[his own tone is all over the map, never settling on anger or hope or any one thing for too long, and his words are deliberately chosen. Man, it's hard not mentioning one of the gods by name, it takes work!]

Your salt can be tasted in the air dude. Thanks for feeding Rage anyway.

Been working on the map, but would appreciate it if you don't frame it like we're begging for them. It has nothing to do with that.

[Rey's on the fence with the gods, but she trusts Sorrow enough as an individual that she doesn't see the point in always being so stubborn.]

A reliable compass in unknown seas is valuable, is it not? And as a seaman yourself, you'd know that any resource is an important one. Beggars can't be choosers in unfamiliar waters, no?

Yes, the ship is progressing. Should be completed pretty soon.

The gods don't have a very high opinion of us. They've often indicated that. For me, the point of collecting some equipment from them has to do with making it possible for multiple expeditions to try for those Door fragments. I don't want anybody to get stuck with a kid's snorkel mask.

By the way, you never did quite make it clear who is on your crew?

[He presses a hand to his chest before offering him a little flourish of a bow.]

I do my best.

[He flicks another smile at the man -- look smiling is kind of his thing -- before he sobers slightly.]

And I understand why you wouldn't want to be at their mercy.
