[anna definitely agrees with having to stop these guys as soon as possible. but it's fallen pretty far down on her own personal list ever since the leads went dry, and she truly hopes she won't have to wait until next november to resolve that. but in the meantime, she's noticed adaine's reaction, and gives a halfhearted little smirk.]

One of the rumors I've heard going around town. There's a rogue pirate captain that people are calling the Amaranth. Goes around finding other squids like us who ended up captured by pirates. Rescues them from those guys and brings them safely back to shore so they can start their lives here. [if she had a drink, she'd be drinking from it right now. instead, she organizes some more tiles.] Load of bullshit, if you ask me.
