The bartender nodded, taking the card and scribbling out a quick note before putting it into a box on the other side of the bar.  "He usually doesn't come by here much.  You know how pirates are; they like to spend months away from the land, building up all that...aggression, so that when they finally come in..."  He waves his hand dismissively.  "Not me, I prefer a woman at least once a week."  He leaves the rest of everything unspoken of, apparently already kicking himself for losing the shot at Layla, and simply too stubborn to try to go crawling back.<br/><br/>Max follows along back with Mina, "Nice to meet you, Noelle," reaching for his wallet and putting some faded bills down to buy her another drink as well.  The waitress accepted the money without hesitation as Max tried to explain.  "We saw him a few days ago over at Blue Crystal Cove," Max told Mina.  "It's a small island about half a day by boat.  He pulled us over and checked to see if we had any women, although thank God we didn't, and he just let us go."  He shook his head, trembling a little.  "The crew seemed to be...digging, or something.  I'm not really sure; nobody wanted to hang around and find out.  I know lots of treasure hunters have been all over that island, though..."  His eyes drifted off to think, though he knew he wouldn't be able to solve the mystery alone.
