Father: I've decided we shall go on a sea voyage.
Father was always coming up with new adventures. As the heir of a distinguished--and rich--family of sculptors known the world over, he had too much time and too much money on his hands.
Rabia: But I don't want to go sailing. I hate the water.

Rabia: Where did everyone go? Where is my family?
Captain Redbeard: You'll meet them soon enough.
Aruj Barbarossa: Never did like sculptors.
Rabia: Wait. What's going on?
Captain Redbeard: Out with the--
