They permit me my sword? It can't be that bad.

Pleasure.

And you will soon be joining with us?

On that island? I think so.

Marvelous.

If I were aware, I'd be sure to polish a few swords for you.

Not the typical welcoming gesture.

I try.

That wasn't an encouragement.

But I took it as one, so... there is that.

It doesn't work like that.

And why's that?

You know it wasn't an encouragement, now.

Yes, and?

Don't bother polishing any swords.

Well, all right, just for our budding friendship, I won't.

[There's a momentary pause as Richard tries to make sense of this strange man.]

Good.

Marvelous.
