The pirate loss to Durrin was a blow to pirate pride but a good reminder that we need to rely on the teamwork of our entire crew. Durrin fights alone, so he doesn't need teamwork—or am I mistaken?

The pirates in this scene fight excellently. I don't think they really make any mistakes. Durrin is just really, really good.

As for whether Durrin needs teamwork . . . in the words of Brandon Sanderson, "Read and find out!"

Just for the record, we DID pay for the supplies.

Seriously, Durrin. Just because we're pirates doesn't mean we're thieves.

Wait . . . I don't think that word means what you think it means. What else defines you as pirates then? Being orphans and misfits? Keeping treasured secrets? Being unemployed? Falling for classic blunders?

Making people walk the plank.

I was about to say, "sounds like you get all the adventure and mystique of being 'pirates' but without the guilty conscience." But now . . . nevermind.

And not wearing uniforms. That's another plus.

Well, I think we can agree there's at least one thing you steal: the show!

Durrin wouldn't have won that fight if he'd taken Twigly up on her offer to let me come along. I would totally have won, since I'm a "dark horse."

I wonder how Twigly would have fared in that fight. Wouldn't surprise me if she's secretly a mancerer.

Cool Korrik twins! Your Kickstarter backer did a good job with them.

Let me guess, the "Captain Jarmen" that Salidar mentioned, is he the one who Volthorn defeated? Fun Easter egg.

Yep! Good catch. Captain Jarmen was indeed the terramancer that Volthorn and his brothers defeated.
