Re: 1372: The Year of Wild Magic: Day 191-196
"Ah, Captain No-Beard. I've heard of him," Myarra responds with a knowing look. "Good man, the captain. Sailed the Dragonsea for several years as a privateer, battling the Evil pirates of the Bandit Kingdoms. But best of all, I hear he always carries a pocketful of sweets.
And you know what I always say about eating sweets before meals? Do it!"

"But you come see me when you have some spare time, and I'll teach you everything you need to know about swinging a sword. A proper young lady should always be able to defend herself. Plus, I'll teach you how to beat up Willie ... but just a little, and only when he truly deserves it. It's not good to be a bully, right?
Now, do you think you could manage to charm another sweet from the captain for your good friend Myarra?"
