Hello, everyone.

I've never been on a ship like this before. Or any ship, really, so I can't say for certain whether the person in charge is always so elusive when it comes to answering questions. I suspect he thinks it's all in good fun, making you believe one thing but telling you another. I don't think I understand his humor, though.

I'm a little concerned about having made a deal with him - he could be one of the Rotfang conspirators in disguise and is set on prolonging this journey indefinitely until all our worlds are nothing but dust and spores.

Is that why all of you are having such strange dreams?

Either way, I hope there's pudding involved. It makes death seem just a little bit cheerier. I think that's why people eat so much at funerals.

Ghosts must get very jealous during mealtimes.

Can I meet them? Your friends?

[changeitroundsome]

They don't exactly talk to just anyone.

[whatthewrackspurt]

I could sing them a song? Perhaps that would lure them out of hiding.

[changeitroundsome]

Well, they are fond of celebrations.

[whatthewrackspurt]

So am I. Are you?

[changeitroundsome]

On occasion. You have to be, to really bring some of the Loa out.

[whatthewrackspurt]

...Voodoo?

[changeitroundsome]

So you know a thing or two about it, hmm?

[whatthewrackspurt]

Only what my father's written in the Quibbler. That's his newspaper, you know.

Is it true you like to raise the dead in order to act as protectors and for fourths at bridge?

[changeitroundsome]

Always with the zombies./small>

No, we don't make it a habbit of raisin' the dead 'less it's dire circumstances. The Lola get kinda annoyed about us meddlin' in their business.

[whatthewrackspurt]

That's probably for the best. Raising the dead's a messy business, I've heard.

[changeitroundsome]

It sure is, in just about every sense of the word.

[whatthewrackspurt]

I wonder what makes them stop being so soft and gooey. Once you're in the ground for a while, it must be hard to pull yourself back together.

[changeitroundsome]

You know, I never thought to ask the Guede on such matters.

[whatthewrackspurt]

Perhaps we should be compiling a list of questions.

[changeitroundsome]

Let's not get too ahead of ourselves. Don't wanna push their hospitality.

[That ends badly.]

[whatthewrackspurt]

No, I suppose not.

I think I should be getting settled in. Lots of things to do, people to meet. I've got to put up protection wards, too. This place has a serious nargle infestation.

[changeitroundsome]

[The hell is a nargle.]

Can't be too careful, I suppose.

[whatthewrackspurt]

Yes. Exactly.

It was nice speaking with you. Goodbye for now.

[changeitroundsome]

Likewise, I look forward to speaking with ya'll again.
