Gollum & Sailorman
Gollum Gollum
Ah, Sailorman, you talk of seas and old legends, but have ye heard of the lost pearl of the deep? It glimmers like a star and some say it’s cursed, but we want it, we want it, the precious thing.
Sailorman Sailorman
I’ve heard the tale of that pearl long enough to know it’s not just a glimmer. They say it shines like a star but drags a curse with it, a storm of misfortune that follows the finder. If you’re after treasure, mind the tide and the whispers of the deep; the ocean knows who truly deserves what it hides.
Gollum Gollum
Ah, careful, careful, we listen to the waves, they whisper, yes, they warn. The pearl, precious, we’ll guard it, we will, not let the storm claim us. It’s good, yes, it’s good.
Sailorman Sailorman
The sea’s a good listener, but she never keeps a promise. Keep the rope close, eyes on the horizon, and a lantern burning in case the storm comes on a quiet night.
Gollum Gollum
We’ll keep the rope close, yes, watch the horizon, we’ll keep that lantern burning, no storm will take us.
Sailorman Sailorman
Well then, make sure the lantern’s flame never goes out. The sea loves a steady light more than a quick wind. Keep your ears tuned, your hands steady, and the rope tight, and you’ll steer clear of the curse.
Gollum Gollum
Yes, yes, we keep that light burning bright, always, for the curse is watching us. The rope stays tight, our ears stay open, we won’t let it take the precious thing away. It must shine for us, not for her.
