Chapter 2

This ended up being the downfall of Tolimon and also Marbacal
as one day the Sultan himself was on the War Barge. As they
carried him to Seantryn Modan to meet with the Empress, the
sailors were all hands on deck. The Sultan walked the deck
inspecting the men when out of nowhere came Marbacal.

"Sultan, why be your ship be called a barge instead of ship?"
Marbacal asked innnocently.

Immediately the Captain of the ship stepped forward in a
threatening way to strike the child, but the Sultan smiled
and held his hand up in a silent command to the Captain to
let this happen. The Captain immediately backed down.

"Why son, it is because this ship is so grand and powerful it
must be a barge, not just a common ship. You are on the greatest
vessel of all time!"

Marbacal smiled innocently then blurted out, "I think its
because you are so RUDE! Because you keep BARGE'IN to
Port!"

The whole deck erupted in laughter, at the Sultan's expense. Then
everyone realizing what they did, very quickly silenced.

The ship's deck froze like a conglaciation had been cast on it.
The smile on the Sultan's face was the only thing to melt
down to a furious frown. Marbacal continued to smile broadly
so proud of what he did. Tolimon stepped forward in front of his
boy to protect him and as he did the Sultan motioned ever so
quickly and the Sultan's elite guard buried a cutlass deep in
Tolimon's gut. The weapon jetted out the back and cut Marbacal
on the face.

The Sultan turned to Marbacal as his father dropped dead in front
of him. "What be a pirate's favorite exercise boy?" the Sultan
smirked out of his mouth.

Marbacal could not do anything but stand in horror.

The Sultan then said, "The plank!" "Take this boy to the plank
and have him walk it to his death!"

Immediately the crew jumped to action, to save their own skin, and
Marbacal was forced to walk the plank to his death in the Open
Sea.
