The forgotten pirate.
Stephen Cardiff: I don’t think you can handle it.
Jeff Merrow: Haha. I’m a bartender I’ve heard it all buddy I don’t think there’s much I can’t handle.
Stephen Cardiff: Very well. I guess it starts off out in the forums. I used to be a pirate, and a damn good one I might add. I had it all buddy money, different women everywhere we stopped, good friends on board good drinks. But one day it all fell apart,
Jeff Merrow: Well what happened?
Stephen Cardiff: One day we were attacked by a powerful wizard.
Jeff Merrow: A wizard! Wow pirates aren’t equipped to deal with wizards!
Stephen Cardiff: Our captain seemed to think we were. The wizard gave us an ultimatum either hand over our loot or fight him. Our captain choose to fight him.
Jeff Merrow: What a fool! Then what happened?
Stephen Cardiff: The Wizard toyed with us at first turning most of our crew into frogs and tossing us off the ship!
Jeff Merrow: Why didn’t they just swim if they were frogs?
Stephen Cardiff: You could be the best swimmer in the world but the forum waters are vicious. They’ll kill a frog quicker then a human any day.
Jeff Merrow: I bet. So he turned the crew into frogs then what?
Stephen Cardiff: That bastard commanded the water to toss our ship around like a rag doll and eventually the water washed all of us away. That is except for our captain who maneged to stay on the ship.
Jeff Merrow: How the hell did he manage that? Those wizards can whip up some severe storms!
Stephen Cardiff: Who knows he just didn’t budge and when the ship sank he went with it.
Jeff Merrow: Jesus. Well what brings you here today?
Stephen Cardiff: Well I thought I was the only survivor but I found out a handful of us survived and I’m trying to locate them but no such luck. I just want to reunite with my old friends however every lead I get seems to lead to a dead end….
Jeff Merrow: Well hell I have tons of people in and out of here everyday maybe one of there names would ring a bell.
Stephen Cardiff: Well I heard my old captain Bo Jack was still alive along with some of the crew such as Pablina, their was a guy named MN umm Duff D Moss and Brad O’Neill.
Jeff Merrow: Duff D Moss? Well that name sure rings a bell. He’s the mayor of Gomestic these days. He’s actually the owner of this place. Hell the guy could probably be king if he wanted to but he’s content running Gomestic.
*Stephen jumps out of his seat pays the bartender and puts on his jacket.*
Stephen Cardiff: Thanks barkeep I owe you what did you say your name was?
Jeff Merrow: The name’s Jeff and you?
Stephen Cardiff: Stephen. Stephen Cardiff. I would love to stay and tell you more story’s but I have to get to Gomestic.
Jeff Merrow: Farewell Stephen.
* Stephen rushes to the door and bumps into two patrons entering the bar.*
Mikayla: Hey watch were your going!
Stephen Cardiff: Sorry lady I’m in a hurray.
Richard Wing: Hey watch your manners buddy!
Stephen Cardiff: Buddy? Sound like you two are looking for a fight……..
