Arr! Watch closely, Alexander! This is how you hoist the sail with one arm! Your turn!
Ok, ok I’ll give it a try
Careful now, don't want ye breakin' yer neck or somethin'. Put yer back into it! That's it! Yer doin' great, lad!
It’s not hard at all, I can totally do this one handed… why are you even concerned, your two armed and can help right?
Aye, but it's all about teachin' ye how to be a proper pirate, Alexander! Ye can't just rely on yer strength all the time.
Ok fine, I guess, go ahead then, show me..
Alright then, watch closely now. First, ya gotta grab hold of that rope there, and then ya wrap it 'round the pulley.
Is that so? Well, let's see if I can manage. Tries to lift the sail Woah, this is harder than it looks!
Aye, it may seem like a lot, but ye'll get the hang of it, boy! Just keep pullin'! Don't let go now, ye're almost there!
With one last grunt, Douglas manages to hoist the sail. Ha! I did it! See, it wasn’t so hard!
Arr, well done, lad! Ye did it! Looks like ye might just make a proper pirate after all. But remember, there's more to learnin' than just hoistin' sails.
Oh yeah, what else is there?
Well, first things first, we gotta learn how to wield a sword! Ye never know when ye might have to swing one at an enemy or defend yerself.
A sword? Me? Now that sounds exciting! I’m all in, show me how it’s done Shanks!
Well, lad, ye've come to the right place! We'll start with the basics and work our way up to some real fancy moves.
Ooh, fancy moves? I'm intrigued! Teach me, Shanks!
Alright then, Alexander! First things first, ye gotta get a feel for the sword. Hold it firmly, but not too tightly. Ye don't wanna be all clumsy and slow. Now, watch closely as I show ye the basic swing. Ready?
Sure am, show me what you got Shanks!
Alright then, here goes nothin'. Watch me closely now, and try to mimic my movements.
Watches intently Okay, got it! Let's give it a whirl!
Alright, Alexander, remember to keep your stance wide and stay balanced. Now, with a swift motion, bring the sword down towards your target.
Gives it a try, stumbling slightly Whoa there! This ain't as easy as it looks, Shanks!
Aye, I told ye it wouldn't be a walk in the park! Ye need to practice and get a feel for it, lad. But don't ye worry, I won't leave ye hanging.
