[Wellard had been told about these journals but he'd been putting off using his own until now; magical books that allowed you to communicate with people just seemed too ridiculous to be true. Still, it wouldn't hurt to test out, right?]

I.. I've been told these journals are the natural way of contacting one another here. I've never spoken to a book

Are you a pirate?

[Since he's met so many here!]

[voice]

[hecalledmebrave]

A pirate?! Certainly not! That's a good way to insult someone's good name.

[But this person sounds quite young, so Wellard lightens up a bit.]

Why would you think such a thing?

[voice]

[sun_trumpet]

... [but, but, pirates are cool!] ... it's an insult? Sorry...

Well, there are lots of pirates here and they are all really cool!

[voice]

[hecalledmebrave]

[Wellard ignores the bit about the pirates being "cool" (really, what was that supposed to mean?) and got straight to business.]

There are pirates here? How many? Are they imprisoned?

[justicereigns]

Were you in the Navy?

Nice to meet you Henry. I'm Smoker. Captain in the marines.

[hecalledmebrave]

It's a pleasure speaking with you, Captain Smoker. [What an odd name!]

Indeed, sir, I'm in His Majesty's Navy. Er.. was, that is.

[justicereigns]

Likewise. And just Smoker is fine, Midshipman. [He comes from a world of odd names yup.]

Was?
