"BLACK MOR ISLAND" "Come on, hurry up!" "Quiet down, if you want me to read again." "Where were we?" "To the fog, Master." "The ship was in the fog." "You couldn't see farther than your nose!" "Yes, fog..." ""Pirates have always loved fog," "But for Black Mor, it was a real passion." "He played with it as if he had made a deal with the Devil." "I remember a Spanish galleon that tried to escape us." "But it was there in that thick fog." "And Black Mor, without a word, took us to it." "Every time for us this was A cause for marvelling." "When he had made the decision, he climbed to the stern and his famous iron hand grasped the wheel." "Then the wind blew in, scattering the fog and swelling up the foresail like a nice woman's body." "And the hunt could start!" "What is going on here?" "Mr. Forbes!" "Is that how you teach?" "Reading corsair tales?" "Pirates, Mr. Director." "Pirates." "One should not mix them up." "These scoundrels only stay focused with beautiful stories with winds" "That make pages turn on their own." "It's certainly easier than teaching them morals and religion." "God forgive me, You're right, Mr. Director." "It encourages their imagination." " Yes, that's right." "From now on they will dream of you." "Give me that book!" "Take your things Sir." "And never step again in my establishment!" "All to your place!" "Donovan!" "Bridey Mac!" "Hurry up!" "Wait, Kid, I will also speed you up!" "So, did you get the Spanish galleon?" "You know they got Mr. Forbes too?" "Nothing holds me back here now." "Only these damn bars!" "But I will succeed some day!" "I too will have a boat." "It'll be as fast as yours!" "Kid!" "Come with me!" "It's not high tide yet." "The director asked for him." ""My only son that I entrusted to your establishment in year of our Lord 1789..." The devil if I can remember!" "Has just turned fifteen and I think that it's time to set him free."" "This is so amusing! "I would like you to give him this letter in person."" "What's this?" "It's so easy!" "They abandon their kids, give them to us, take them back." "And this kind director is here for that." "Come in!" "Come closer." "I received a request which concerns you." "Which, I admit, I find a bit amusing." "Someone obviously does not know" "The rules of this institution, as this person simply asked that you be set free." "Also, this letter is for you." "But, you are well here." "You are well fed, you are learning a trade..." "As we often say to your classmates," "God blessed you by saving you from misery and bad weather." "Be sure that I will keep you here a few more years." "You are stubborn, but know that I will make the decisions about your freedom, just me!" "What are you doing?" "Do you see anything?" "No." "He surely doesn't know how to swim." "Nothing has surfaced." " Let's go, I tell you!" "Let's go back." "The water is icy anyway." "What a nice weather, Stringer!" "The devil take me, it's nice!" "A strong north wind on the flight!" "Devil's on our side!" "Put me down and see what's over there." "Stringer, look!" "I see better than you!" "A lost net!" "Get it." "Be careful not to spoil it until we see what it is." "Drowning!" "But he breathes like you and me!" " Throw him back into the water?" "Hold on." "Perhaps he has something for us?" "You said that no one should know that we are here." " Don't worry." "Look at that angel face." "No more than 15 years old." "Here, boy, but only a sip." "So!" "Now tell us who you are and where you come from." "Why?" "Do you know who you are?" "If we know who we are?" "This is Stringer, aka Fairy Fingers, because of his artistic talents." "And in front of you I stand:" "Mac Gregor from the famous lineage Mac Gregor of Galloway!" "And this is our property." "Floating wood, precious and exotic woods;" "Chest full of porcelain, however, broken;" "Half of a globe, Mahogany, a gem;" "And the figurehead of the Conqueror!" "Nice girl, isn't she?" " At least what's left of her." "You're right." "Not the whole, just like me!" "But, boy, I've not always been like this," "I have known better days..." " Do you know how to read?" "Look, of course I know!" "The Bible, poetry, Shakespeare!" "All that's left of my magnificence is just a feeling for the beautiful things." "And this tall thin man." "Here it's rather nice." "All the others work, not us." "And during storms, when all good souls tremble with fear, we drink in honor of the sea." "And we dance with joy!" "Don't we, Stringer?" " Of course!" "And we light up a fire on the cliff." " Shut up, fool!" "Do not listen to him, boy." "The poor lad has a draft in his head." "There is nothing to use in this junk!" "The sea takes what it needs and throws the rest like a bone to a dog." "It's on the open seas that one must hunt." "On the open seas?" " Yes, of course, the open seas." "Attacking with a good boat!" " Pirates?" "You sure are not afraid!" "But, hear me." "I knew many gentlemen of fortune." "Take me to hell if I'm lying!" "At the harbors of Liverpool or Cardiff." "Ah yes, they were going proudly!" "But at the end of their lives" "The only thing they knew was dancing." " Dancing?" "But at the end of a rope!" "On the gallows, little guy." "In this beautiful city of London!" " Don't call me "little guy"!" "I don't like it." "So, what's your name, little guy?" " I have no name." "Call me Kid, that sounds nice." "Hey, Kid!" "Right, that sounds nice." "Like a knife plunging into wood!" "Good people of Cornwall, From the valleys to the meadows and trough" "The sea sings softly into the ears of your little children" "But it is quite voracious It has no feeling at all" "The wench took him away from me, my beloved good man!" "He was happy and so caring We were waiting for the spring" "But the sea became his lover A ten thousand years old lover" "Such insatiable hunger for centuries Sharpened teeth like razors" "Quite ready for all the hulks wandering all over the ocean" "Over there it's all a big mess And all goes to hell no less sea monsters, storms And bloodthirsty pirates" "Good people of Cornwall, Keep an eye on your children" "Do not let them go on the open seas And give me a bit of money..." "Look!" "A new coast guard ship!" " Wonderful cutter!" "By God!" "Pray!" "Come to see the new boat!" "How posh!" "What's the matter, boy?" "Can't stand on your legs?" "Brian, aren't you interested in the reward?" "Twenty guineas?" "It is not much for these wreckers!" "A couple of evenings ago, I almost got wrecked with the fog" "These punks had lit a fire at the point of Kevernovom." "I almost missed the entrance to the channel!" "If I knew where they are hiding..." "In a hole in the cliff." "I will not go break my neck for 20 coins!" "The coastguards should find them, not us!" "Look at them!" "They do not do anything, just drink beer and eat our taxes!" "Especially now, that they have this new ship." "Can make 15 knots, I heard." "As slim as the last!" "I'd like to change it for my old boat." "The ship is not important, Brian." "It's the sailors, right guys?" "You're right." "Such a ship for coastguards..." "What a shame!" "Be hanged immediately or later, that is the question." "Where have you been?" "The book?" "What do you want us to do with this?" "It's my business!" "Where are they?" "Probably drinking beer." "It's getting foggy, little guy." "As it should be." "Let's go!" "Are you sure there is no one on board?" "Let's raise our sails." "What did you find?" "Shut up!" "Hey!" "Get off that ship!" " Look at this, you guys!" "The coastguards' boat is getting stolen!" " Follow them!" "Thieves!" "Hey, you!" "Bring your boat over here!" "I am so happy to see this!" "Faster!" "Hurry up!" "Get in!" "Let's go!" "They don't know what they are doing or what?" " They will not succeed." "Let's help them!" "Go ahead, guys, sails up!" "Goodbye, goodbye!" "Turn them to the wind, not facing it!" "Hooray for Mexico!" "Tightened the ropes!" "And full speed ahead!" "What are you doing here?" " Deserter, and you?" "Can you run this boat?" " I have sailed." "Who is he?" "Jim, a member of the crew." "Where are the coastguards?" "No time for questions." "I'm taking the ship." "Are you with me?" "I hope you know what you're doing." "By golly, you forgot the anchor!" "In the hold you must stow it!" "Faster, hurry up to turn!" "Hey, hey, sailor!" "Well, finally you're going!" "Goodbye, Goodbye!" "Take care of this beautiful ship!" "Hooray for Mexico!" "Get prepared, on the open sea not always a nice weather!" "Wind to starboard!" "Full sails and up the flag!" "Hey, hey, sailor!" "The inner jib!" "Hoist it home!" "No, not that one!" "Leave the helm to me." "I am starting to feel this boat!" "What a feeling to be a sailor?" "On one leg, wobbly!" "So, how do you like the Fortune?" " We could have done worse Captain." "With a boat like that we will see many countries!" " I've already been to many," "Seeing a lot of countries hasn't been good to me:" "Slave, convict, deserter..." "I would rather remain at sea." " At least Taka, you know where you come from." "I know, but I will only go back home if I get rich." "Then we will make it so." "That's why we are here, right?" "Come on, old lazybones, read to us what's in this!" "You will see how gentlemen pirates behave!" "It's about Black Mor's life." "Black Mor?" "The most feared pirate of all times!" "A true master of the sea." "Yes, I know." "Mac Gregor is going to read us his adventures." "How does that story apply to us?" "He was doing what he wanted." "And we will do what we want!" " The story goes that he became as rich as a king." "One day he disappeared, like the sparkling trail of a boat on the water..." "Are you going to start?" " He does not know how to read." "What?" "Liar!" "I am going to throw you into the sea!" "I kept you on the boat only so you could read this book!" "Who knows how to read here?" "The devil take you all!" "Ah you are here?" "I thought that I would not see you anymore." "How about my boat?" "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Yes, I know..." "There is still much to learn to be like you, right?" "But, when you first embarked on the sea" "You weren't the famous Black Mor, right?" "And you had to learn, too!" "Do not worry about me, I know where I'm going." "I will surprise you." "Talking to the stars, Captain?" "I talk with myself." "Don't I have the right?" "Of course, Captain." "You know we are running short of food?" " I know!" "We will pull into port on this coast." "Kid!" "Are you coming?" "We're done." "Go ahead, I am coming." "Come with me!" "Come on!" "A young monk?" "Why did you bring him?" "Move, come on, move!" " The devil take me, do we need some faith?" "Come here!" "Go down below!" "What are you gonna do to me?" " Why?" "Are you afraid of me?" "No!" "But you hurt me." "Of course, I see you're afraid." "You are trembling like a leaf." "Not true!" "I'm not afraid of you!" "Good, then, read to me what it says." ""When he had made the decision, Black Mor would go up to the stern and put his famous iron hand..."" " That's enough." "You'll read to us every night." ""The days passed, and nothing appeared on the horizon." "Not a sail, not even a cloud." "And then, one morning," "The watchman saw a ship sailing to the south." "A shiver of pleasure moved over the crew, like a breeze."" "Great!" "You read very well, little monk." " Yes it's beautiful!" "Go on!" ""Pirates are no savages." "They have their own laws." "After the onslaught of attacks, these laws are literally and ruthlessly enforced." "The loot is divided into equal parts." "Women, who, of course, do not belong on a pirate ship, are thrown into the sea."" ""A strong storm overtook us" "But that doesn't prevent Black Mor from making the assault."" "Again?" "The devil take me if you haven't read about assault ten times!" "Rather, tell us how he ended." "That will save us some time!" "Do not listen to him, little monk, go ahead." "You're spoiling the experience Mac Gregor." "It is not written in the book." "Probably they hanged him, as you will end yourself." "And me with you!" "So what?" "Is it not better than dying in a bed?" "But before being hanged, we will go on many adventures!" "With a ship full of gold and jewels, he anchored near an island bathed in sunlight, an island that nobody knows." "And then what?" " Well..." "It's nothing." "It's just my imagination." "Now we play without cheating, guys." " Do you know how?" "The devil take me if I am not going to hit you with my crutch!" "Stop fighting." " It's your turn." "Again double sixes!" "Anyway Stringer always wins." "Here you are!" "You don't gamble?" " I don't know how." "I watched you at the helm." "Want to try?" "I will teach you." "And you teach me how to read." "Agreed." " Hold the wheel." "Look at the course and at the sails." "Try to feel the ship with your body." "That's the most important thing." "That's it." "Turn it up a bit, to catch the wind." "Not too much!" "Sensitive..." "As if he were alive." "As if SHE were alive." ""Fortune" is a girl." "But I am sure you don't know girls." " And you, have you known any?" "I..." "I have known many!" "Say, you manage rather well." "But why don't you watch the compass?" "I look at the stars." "If I aim for Sirius, I go exactly to the southwest, 205" "Where did you learn that?" "In the monastery?" "At the monastery, we never watched the sky!" "We always had our heads down in books." "My father was the captain of a ship." "When I was seven years old, he took me with him to India." "On the way back we were attacked by corsairs" "They killed my father." "They did not know what to do with me, So they left me at the monastery." "You know..." "A father is no use." "I did not have one, and I don't feel any worse." "It is a schooner!" "Full to the brim!" " Full of gold?" "Or spices." " Or rum!" "It was left behind by his convoy." "Going full speed." " Easy we'll overtake him!" "Raise the mainsail and flag up!" "Move over!" "We need to slow down, Captain!" " No!" "Bring the sail upwind." "With the breeze, We will overtake him in an hour." "This is not a breeze, it's a storm, a real one, Captain!" "Let it go!" "Now we'll see what the Fortune is capable of!" "He's crazy!" "We need to slow down, Captain!" "No!" "What are you doing?" "What's this sail?" " This is the crossjack sail." "So we can escape the storm." "Escape is not an option!" "Here it is!" "In the mist!" "Black Mor, you will be pleased with me." "Order them to stop fighting!" "Watch out, Stringer is not kidding." " Oh, no!" "Let's drink, my friends!" "To the mist, to the storm" "And to little monk who fought like a devil!" "And to this brave captain, who leaves us his ship and cargo." "Why don't you drink?" " You didn't fight like a gentleman." "You're right." "I am a gentleman of fortune!" "What's your cargo?" "Gold, ivory?" "Nothing interesting to you, Señor." "Ebony wood." " Wood, really?" "Captain, come see something." "Keep an eye on him." "What are they doing in there?" "It's the cargo, the ebony wood." "It's a slave trader." "I speak a bit of their language, Captain." "They come from Sudan." "Do they know how to manage this boat?" "He says he does not know." "Hear this, scoundrel?" "You survive." "If that man had said yes" "I would have thrown you into the sea." "Instead you will steer your ship again, but under their command." "You will bring them back to their country." "Arm them, Taka!" "You are completely insane!" "These niggers are gonna kill us!" "They are not that stupid." "They need you and your crew, don't you get it?" "Explain to them the situation." "They need a leader and five armed guys." "Release three sailors to help them." "And let them go home." "What does this mean?" "We are not even taking the boat?" "That's not what we agreed to." " Take what you like, but leave them food and navigation equipment." "And let's leave this damn boat." "The wind is getting stronger." "What a sad sight!" "If we keep this up we will be rich soon!" "To think that Mr. Taunted old Mac Gregor in his cave!" "Yes, play us something for the soul!" "That's all you are capable of." " Enough, Mac Gregor!" "The fight was a good one, right?" "Anyway I would never have left my ship to the Portuguese." "What are these for?" "Kid is right." "The fight was good." "Shall we share things?" "Everyone is equal." "That is the rule!" "Where is the little monk?" " He took a bag down." "He better not forget to share!" " Wait, I'll go get him." "That's right, we wait!" "You are going to make the boat explode with these candles!" "You're a girl?" "Well, yes." "So what?" "What does it change?" "It's nothing." "I mean..." "Quick, hide this dress!" "If the others find out, do you realize the mess we are in?" "I am tired of hiding!" "Let me go out." "I'll tell them myself!" "Let me go, I tell you!" " Wait, you know what the rules are!" "You read it to them!" "You know what they will say." "A girl?" "Girls have no place on a pirate ship!" "That's true, so said Black Mor." " Did she not fight with us?" "The schooner is not very far, we can catch up." "She can go with them." " No!" "She will stay on this boat." "If the law does not allow girls to remain on board," "It's for good reason." " Very much so, the devil take him!" "Even on shore girls can spread trouble in the heart of the hardest men." "So, imagine just on a boat!" "Look at the two of them, from the beginning they stood aside these two." "You think it's normal?" "The book is right, fellows:" "Girls out to the sea!" "We need to vote." "You're right, Taka." "We will vote." "Who agrees to comply with the Pirate Code?" "Old bandit!" " Stop it!" "You went crazy!" "You decide about my life just because I'm a girl?" "First, Kid didn't hide me." "It was me." "I was scared!" "But not anymore." "I'm not afraid." "Yesterday too I was a girl, And yet no one minded." "You use the pirate laws only when it is convenient." "I am buying my right to be on this ship." " Buy it?" "And with what?" "With this!" "A map?" "An island on a map, that interests you?" "Now imagine, pirates... there is always a buried treasure." "Maybe there's a lot of gold?" "But without me you will never be able to find its location." "We know how to read a map better than you." " Yes, an ordinary map." "But this is in code." "The Island may be located in Peru, or in the Pacific Ocean, anywhere!" " Where did you get it?" "In Black Mor's book." "Black Mor Island?" "That's his hiding place." "Black Mor Island?" "You will take us to this island?" "Give me the opportunity." "Agreed, Captain?" "Sure." "We will settle it later." "How are you doing, little thief?" "Oh come on!" "Let it go." "Let me work, I'm almost done." "Hey, look at that, I can read these words" ""Between a goat and a dolphin." Is that right?" "You have made progress." "That's Tropic of Capricorn." "It is often mentioned at the end of the book." "That put me on the right track." "It coincides with my computation." "What does this say?" ""Erewon."" "It does not mean anything." " This is the name of your island." "Look, there it is." "In this archipelago, to 26 degrees." "So, Captain?" "What's she up to?" "That's it friends." "She found it." "Just two more days of sailing." "I listen to my leg." "Not this one, the one which is gone." "It tells me that we are not far away from a nice pile of gold coins." "What will you do with your share, old scoundrel?" " In my life I have done a lot of bad things, but this was mostly to blame on misery." "The devil take me if I do not straighten up my account up there!" "When I return to my village, I'll be a free man," "And I will be rich!" "And behind me there will be a caravan of camels laden with gifts for the whole village!" " And you, Stringer?" "You don't say anything." "I do not know..." "If to be wealthy means that we all part away, that we won't stay together..." "Then I do not need it!" "My guy!" "But I will still need your legs." "All by myself, I won't go far." " Then, let's swear that we'll stay together, no matter what happens!" "Is it Black Mor's island?" "No, Taka." "We will refill our drinking water and move on." "Can I come with?" " Of course." "All ashore!" "I'll stay on the ship." "I have a pain in my leg." "Stringer!" "Take it!" "Stop it!" "Look at this!" "Come on, let's race to the top!" "You got it!" "Not fair!" "Do you feel how the wind is sweet?" "I have this weird feeling." "Makes me feel like weeping and laughing, at the same time." "Are you feeling this way too?" "I do not know." "Words, feelings, It's all new to me." "I have to get used to it." "I don't even know your name." "Names do not matter." "It's what you carry in your heart." "You can still call me little monk." "And you?" "You really remember nothing from your childhood?" "No, nothing." "Nobody either." "What are they doing?" "Wait!" "Here we are!" "Rotten rats!" "Scammers!" "What's gotten into them?" "I need to tell you something." "They left with my boat!" "Where did they go?" "Do you know where?" " Mac Gregor found the map." "What?" "You left it in your cabin?" "You did it on purpose!" "I can't believe it!" "He told the others and now they are gone with the Fortune!" "Why did you do that?" "Wait, do not overdo it!" "Your friends wanted to throw me into the sea." "They ditch you when they don't need you and I'm the only culprit?" "They abandoned you, understand?" " It's not possible!" "Chickens!" "Here I am now, chicken farmer on a deserted island!" "But it's not deserted since we are here." "Oh, that's right!" "Well then, bye!" "And good luck!" "Why are you following me everywhere?" "To make fun of me, are you?" "And you're right." "First I get tricked by a girl, and then by my crew." "I lost my ship." "Go, leave me!" "Anyway, I will not succeed." "It's no use." "Go on." "Go away, I tell you!" "Jim?" "Is that you, Jim?" "So they left you too?" "Sorry, I did not see your friends." "Are you looking for Kid?" "He is not here." "We had a row." "He went somewhere in the mountains." "I think he wanted to be alone." "Jim!" "Poor old buddy!" "Let me see." "It's not too bad." "What's this?" "This is for me?" "She gave you this for me?" "Girls are not easy to understand." "To think that Erewon is now in the hands of those three rascals!" "Jim, you wrote it wrong!" "You and I are just poor students." "What is it, Jim?" "Yes, little monk..." "By golly!" "This is Erewon!" "This is the Black Mor Island!" "How come?" "The devil take me if I understand anything!" "Turn to the left, Stringer!" "Turn around, dumb ass!" "We are at the place marked on the map!" "You hold it upside down." " Up, down hahh!" "These damn marks keep us going in a circle!" "Nothing matches!" "We should have kept the Kid with us." "There would be enough gold for everyone even for the Kid, right?" " We already discussed this." "You saw how he left with her?" "Strange winds went through his head." "A captain cannot behave this way." " In any case, my leg tells me that the treasure is here." "At work, guys!" "Hurry up, let's get moving!" "So then, are we done pouting?" "Put down the ladder, we need to talk." "I hear you very well from here." "Well, charge!" "Come here!" "Rotten liar!" "You knew we are on Erewon." "You did not ask me." " And the others?" "Where did you send them?" "I made another map." "They are located just 60 miles away." "You knew they were going to leave us?" " I was not quite sure, but with Mac Gregor, there was too much risk." "So, you have the true map?" "And the treasure is here?" "But what will we do with it on this island?" "Gold, jewels..." "You see me walking on the beach with a ring on each finger?" "You do not understand." "I swore to find this treasure." "We will not stay here anyway." "Why?" "You don't like this island?" "We could build a real house right next to the waterfall." "Will your house have windows so that I can go through them?" "No, little monk, you are wrong about me." "As well as yourself." "An island is a prison just like an orphanage or a monastery." "I need to regain this ship, I cannot waste time!" "Give me the map." "Mmh he can't live without it." "Where's the map?" "Here it is!" "Eat it and die!" "I'm sure he used another way." "Well yes, it's not through the volcano." "It's by the sea that he unloaded his boat!" ""My dear son," "You have succeeded in reaching Erewon." "I congratulate you!" "However this is but half of your voyage." "The mirror which you will find in this casket is the key that you are missing." "With a little thought..."" ""..." "The letter I sent to an orphanage," "Now you have the complete map that will take you to the treasure."" "How do you know he's your father?" "This letter is addressed to his son." "But it might not be you." " Yes it's me." "Before I ran away," "The director was about to give me a letter." "I remember the envelope with the wax seal." "This is the letter Black Mor mentions." "But I didn't take it." "I looked only at the window, the only one in the orphanage without bars." "This letter contains the second part of the message." "You need it!" " To go back to Cornwall?" "Didn't I get dragged by the nose long enough?" "From the start, the old pirate had everything under control!" "Everything was planned!" "The map that fell out of the book, this island at the other end of the ocean," "Why not even wind, fog, and storm?" "He is quite capable of that too!" "That's it." "I quit." "What?" "Your escape, your ship, the ordeals you went through, it's all your merit, not your father's!" "You are not going to give up now, are you?" "You'll go to the end!" "If only to tell him all that to his face!" "A pirogue!" " I knew we wouldn't stay here." "We can't paddle 60 miles!" "It's impossible." "Wait for me!" "Where are you going?" "Be careful!" "Pirates!" "Do not move, guys!" "Hey, buccaneers!" "Show your rat's snout!" "And what if we left them?" "We can manage with Jim." "No, I still need them." "Fire once." "It's you, Kid?" " Kid and little monk, I see them!" "One, two cheaters!" "Missing the third, the worst!" "Hahh there he is!" "Mac Gregor, did your leg become mute?" "She did not tell you I was back?" "Little monk, let him hear gunpowder!" "You got the ship, Kid." "You're not going to kill us too, are you?" "We agree to negotiations!" "What do you have to negotiate?" "You found the treasure?" "Yep!" "The devil take me if I'm lying!" "Let us go up on deck." "I'll give you your share." "And little monk's too." "Good old Mac!" "Can you hear him?" "And so generous!" "Okay!" "Climb aboard." "I will take command." "I know you did not find the treasure because it is not here." "But I know where it is." "Well, then we're all together again?" "And we go treasure hunting as before?" "And we go treasure hunting as before, as true fortune gentlemen that we are." "Get ready to sail!" "Head to Cornwall, little monk." "Everything will be alright, you shall see." "Now they will see who we are!" "Say Sam, the whales are pretty safe." "I will get rusty if we are kept on shore any longer." "Should have set sail three days ago!" "And it's all because of a 15 year old pirate!" "Younger than that have been hanging Samuel, for the example!" "The Royal Fleet cannot come to terms with the loss of this cutter." "Just a kid would come back to his crime scene." "He's not a kid." "Believe me." "I know a sailor who was on the Libertad." "When they were attacked, this pirate was a real demon!" "The sea was empty." "Not a sail on the horizon." "He attacked them faster than you can spit into the sea!" "He did not fall from the sky." "It was the fog, that's what." "I'm telling you that there was no fog." "You could see as clear as I see you." "Anyway, he's like a rabid animal." "They said he went to the south, and now he's back!" " They will get him in the end." "Let's get it over, and fast." "Back home Mac Gregor?" " The devil take me if I could remember such a weather!" "I am wet to the bones!" "Since we passed the point of Cornwall the sea has been emptier than a desert." "Not a single sail!" " Never seen so few boats around here." "Ohh a house!" "I forgot people live in houses." "Believe me, they have not forgotten us." "Face the boat to the wind." "We will wait for the tide." "You are not going to make us go back up this river?" "A river flows only in one direction, just like life." " He's right." "It's a trap, Kid." " I know this place like the back of my hand." "With the tide, we will be on site in an hour." "The wind is with us." "The return will be easy with the ebb tide." "We can use the canoe." " No!" "I need the Fortune." "What will you tell us this time so that we go with you?" "Nothing, Mac Gregor!" "You have a choice." "The treasure will be shared among those who go all the way." "The others can disembark." "They will not get even half of a gold coin." "And he calls that a "choice"?" "Did you see that fog!" "As if we were in the middle of winter." "Does not bode well." "The little one will eat cold." "He did not complete the tour." "So?" "All is well locked?" "Yes, Mr. Director." "All's locked." "Who could it be at this time?" "Do not go!" " I need to see who it is." "Continue on your way!" "We are not asking for charity." "Just a little straw to spend the night." "Where are you going?" "To San Patrick, on a pilgrimage." "And on one leg, the devil take..." "May God forgive me." "All right." "Come in, but quietly." "At night I am never to open." " God will repay you." "Quickly, my father's letter!" "Give me my letter!" "Letter from your father?" "Yes, of course..." "Of course!" "Kid!" "I think you did not understand." "My letter, where is my letter?" "Grab this maniac!" "What do we do?" " We'll try this way." "See, that's Kid!" "He's crazy to come back!" "Indeed, it's Kid!" "So it's true." "It's Kid." "Kid, how is it going?" " Come on Little guy, let's go!" "But you are hurt?" "And the letter?" "A lost cause!" " No!" "We can do it!" "No!" "Give him his letter." " What letter are you talking about?" "My letter, from my father." "You know very well!" "Your letter?" "Here is your letter." "Well, now I know where to go." "You found what you were looking for?" " I did." "But first we get out of here." "It's not a good time to get stranded." "This is the end of the road, my boy." "We will not get away." "What are they going to do?" "They are waiting for daylight to gun us down, Just like a target practice" "No one on the bridge." "No one at the helm..." "When is high tide?" " In an hour." "Why?" "See that passage there, between those two rocks?" "I know it well." "The Fortune will not pass." "She will." "We will make it lighter by throwing everything we don't need." "But we need to hold on until then." "Little monk, you'll take control." "Whatever they hit us with I want us to keep facing them." "Bring everything on deck that can protect us from wood splinters." "It's going to be rough." "Watch out!" "We can't wait." "We have to try to pass." " The boat will never pass." "Throw into the sea anything you can!" "Not my bath!" "Throw everything and Mac Gregor with it!" " Really?" "The wind is getting stronger, Captain!" "Gods of heaven and pirates, you are with us!" "Raise the crossjack sail!" "It's your turn, little monk!" "And now direction to Nowere!" "Nowhere?" "But first a big thank you to Jim." "He helped me to understand." "Now you will see." "Come on, Jim, look." "Now you." "Erewon is the name of the island where we were." "Jim wrote it down but inverted." "Jim, look carefully." "Black Mor toyed with me." "You have to invert everything." "Erewon, or Nowere, lies at the 52nd northern parallel." "Not far from here." "Wait..." "Kid needs to go there alone." "Who is it?" "What do you want?" "At the orphanage I got the letter." "Is that you?" "Come closer." "My sight is getting weak, and this light..." "Master Forbes?" "What are you doing here?" "I'm waiting for you." " What about my father?" "Your father died, my boy." "Shortly after writing you this letter." "So, you learned how to read now?" "I feared that you would not succeed solving this little puzzle." "You see, I sailed with your father on all the oceans." "I was a jack of all trades, lieutenant, surgeon, and secretary..." "I took care of his manor When he could no longer sail." "As far as I was concerned, I did not dare tell him that you were my worst student." "Why did he not come and get me?" "A pirate is primarily a sailor, then a father." "He asked for news about you." "I told him about your interest in my reading his story." "He was glad for that." "He said: "My son will be my successor on the oceans!"" "I think he was hoping to see you before dying." "No, he did not want to see me!" "He sent me away across the sea so he could die before I got here!" "Is that right?" "So, this is my island?" "Sure." "Island, houses, rocks!" "Apart from the sea which belongs to those who sail on it." "Will you settle here?" "Did he have anything else for me?" " Yes." "He asked that, at least once, you come to his grave." "It's weird, isn't it?" "But, do whatever you want." "That's his last trial, Black Mor." "Although, with this boy you never know!" ""Then the sun will take the position of the moon."" "Did you find it?" " Talk, by golly!" "It's here the treasure?" " Yes." "Behind the manor, on the valley floor," "Right from the Black Mor's tomb, there is a passage." "The treasure is there." "The journey is over?" "What are you doing?" "And the others?" "They got what they wanted, right?" "Ready to sail!" "Let's raise the sails!" "Where do you want to go little monk?" "On the open seas!" " You're right, this is the best course." "On the open seas!" "I told you so Black Mor." "Let the good winds blow!" "English subtitles by Serge Ansay" "Proofreading by Crystal Shen"
