While the members of the Blackfin Pirates (and one guy who is tagging along with them for now) sail on to their next destination, we take a brief look at what has happened to Redwell's first mate since Siobhan punched him.

Carl Side Story

Part One:

-----

In the town of Boaduor, the local citizens were placing conscious and unconscious pirates in a wooden cart to be taken to the county jail. Even though one man in particular took a dozen men to get onto the cart, they were still successful in finding all but two of the Redwell Pirates, and nobody was in a rush to find the doctor or the captain anyway. They had to admit, the guy with the fedora had done a good job of treating the butcher’s arm and the townsfolk didn’t think they had a cell big enough for Redwell.

As the cart was moving along the Boaduor River, it hit a pothole along the old road. Fortunately, the vehicle (if it could be called that) was fine, but one unconscious fat man was not. Carl fell into the river and looked like he sunk to the bottom.

“Should we do something about that?” one man asked.

“Nah, that fatass probably drowned. We can just say that Claire’s dead. The mayor’ll be happy we don’t have to go over budget feeding him while we wait for the Marines,” another guy responded.

“Sounds good to me.”
