Boldred, how fast can
Starwort and the otters get us
to Marshank?
Two days by the shortcut.
But no beast has ever survived
that shortcut.
So we don’t really know.
(Birds chirping)
Hmm.
There they are!
Ahoy!
Ahoy!
Starwort the otter!
Ahoy, mates!
Welcome aboard.
Many thanks for your help,
friend.
’Tis only a matter of time
afore that scummy stoked
Badrang takes over the whole
coast.
Best to stop him, smart like.
Miss Rose, good to see your
pretty face again.
Marigold!
It’s been so long.
These are my friends, Grumm and
Pallum.

Pallum and Grumm, well, shake
me rudder, you’re a plump and
fit pair.
BOTHOoh.
Aye, Marigold.
Yes, true, Miss Marigold.

Here comes trouble on the tide.

Out of our way!

Hmm.
What are they doing here?
They be good fighters.
And I thought we could use the

So I told ’em they couldn’t
come.
You know the shrews, mate.
Never do as they’re told.
Right smart.
Cast off fore and aft!
You shrews stop ’ere!

Sooner or later those slaves
out there will have to surrender

Well, this may be your last

Don’t you realize we’re fighting

There now, lad.
What would you have us do?
Break down and weep?
Oh, well, back to work then.
Better dig in, wot-wot.
Cheeky blighter.
Catches on fast though.

would happen if we did
surrender?
Lord Badrang, in his mercy,

Yes, sire.
