Robert seems to struggle for words, but you give no fucks. First order of business: pants. After a diligent and exhaustive search, you find some on your legs. With that issue taken care of, you address Robert with your sophisticated business voice, "Terribly remiss for the display chap, such will happen. Fancy some conciliatory tea?". His expression declares both surprise and skepticism. He probably thinks you have a manner of concussion or something. He tentatively replies, "Sure... sure. So.. about the cave back there? Sorry". His apology is weak ass to start, but by the time the kettle boils he has launched into the meat of things. He thinks one of his officers is marshaling men for a mutiny, and the crew seems to chafe under the idea of allying with you. With the threats and such, he couldn't risk looking weak, so he backhanded you. Quite reasonable, if one is a pirate. He apologizes profusely and gazes around as an awkward silence sets in. He breaks the silence with an offer and an explanation: He'll still take you north, but this time with some of your followers, given that his standing amongst the pirates was solidified by the scuffle. Should you decline, he'll take some time to scour his ranks for the mutineers, and would appreciate help. But, a third option yet exists: Fuck this, I'm the cave god and I'll do what I want. What do?
(Can't ASCII draw to play nice, so I'm doing art for this by hand. Expect absolute shit with the occasional turd pearl).
