I have been thinking about the question I tried to answer
for you and how much trouble that one question caused, and
for a while I was feeling bad about myself for asking it, but
now I don't so much. I feel sorry for Goodwife Filster, even
if she is so crazy and angry that she lost control of herself,
but there are a lot of people like her around who have bad
attitudes and don't want to make life better for anyone else.
If you are afraid that people haven't learned anything about
working together as a lesson of the Cataclysm, then it seems
to me you have a lot to worry about. But Ark and I (and

figured out most of the time, so there's still hope.
It was fun working for you, Astinus. Maybe I will get to
see you again someday when I sail my own pirate ship. Be
looking for me!
