[color=889194]"It's complicated,"[/color] Argus answered, somewhat hesitantly, a bit caught off-guard by the question, [color=889194]"But yes on both counts- my father was a sailor, and so was I.  However, my ship was lost to some unseen horror out there, so it may be a while before I return to the sea."[/color]  He didn't want to elaborate too much, lest he tip off his true, inhuman age, or the true nature of his nautical career to Gilles.

[color=889194]"Besides,"[/color] he confided, to the headman, removing his hat, [color=889194]"There is much to be done ashore before I can think about heading back out there.  I must get my strength back, perhaps ask Julene for help crafting a polearm, and look into whatever is going on with Alavaris."[/color]

There wasn't much potential for piracy in this ruined world, but this new world was ripe for exploring, if Argus lived long enough to get back his strength, his ship, and a new crew.  Even if the stars and coastlines were the same, the vampire was curious to see what other races and groups had survived the world's end.  For now, however, there were more important and immediate matters to address, such as ensuring the survival of these surviving humans, dealing with Alavaris, and fulfilling his bargains with the witch and the spearwoman.

[color=889194]"You mentioned your father possessed a flag.  Did you ever see what it looked like when unfolded?"[/color] he asked.  It was too bad that Julene had caused it to be destroyed, but he was curious what sort of flags were being flown in this new world.
