Starting the Quest

• Bill Teach: Mumblelandlubbermumblemumble...
• Player: Hello!
• Bill Teach: What right have ye to be so happy, landlubber?
• Player: Well it is quite a nice day.
• Bill Teach: Aye, that it is.
• Bill Teach: Will ye forgive an old sailor his temper [lad/lass]? I'm in dire straits indeed.
• Player: What's the problem? I may be able to help.
• Bill Teach: I dunno, [lad/lass], I need a pirate to help me with my problem, but none will sail with me.
• Bill Teach: Well, ye look like ye might have the right stuff, tell me would ye like te be a pirate?
• Yes, I've always wanted to be a pirate!
  • Player: Yes, I've always wanted to be a pirate!
  • If the player does not have all quest requirements:
    • Bill Teach: It takes more grit than most have te be a pirate, and I don't think ye've got what it takes [lad/lass].
    • You do not meet all of the requirements to start the Cabin Fever quest.
    • (End of dialogue)
  • Bill Teach: Well [lad/lass], I don't think ye could pirate yer way out of a chest full of piracy.
  • Player: Awww...
  • Bill Teach: But since nobody else will risk the trip ye'll do!
  • Bill Teach: Well [lad/lass], I be Bill Teach, the Captain of the Adventurous, one of the finest ships ever to sail these waters.
  • Bill Teach: I'm in port doin' some legitimate tradin' before headin' back to Mos Le'Harmless.
  • Player: Mos Le'Harmless? Where is that?
  • Bill Teach: It's a pirate stronghold off the southern coast of Morytania.
  • Bill Teach: Been in existence for years it has, the best place for pirates to relax with the exception of Brimhaven.
  • Bill Teach: Would be THE best, but we don't have their fancy Agility Arena.
  • Player: Will it be OK for me to go there if I am not a pirate?
  • Bill Teach: Of course [lad/lass], once we make landfall ye'll have worked as a sailor on a pirate vessel, which is one of the easiest ways to become a true pirate.
  • Bill Teach: This brings me back to the reason I'm stuck here of course, and the reason I need your help.
  • Bill Teach: Last night I got into a war o' words with another Cap'n, and he has vowed to sink my ship and put all of my crew to the sword.
  • Player: How horrible! How did your crew react?
  • Bill Teach: By desertin'.
  • Player: All of them?
  • Bill Teach: Every last one!
  • Bill Teach: The second I leave port I'll come under attack. I think I'll be able te make it if I have another person helpin' out, but I wouldn't stand a chance by me self.
  • Bill Teach: Ye said ye would help me out [lad/lass], will ye stand by yer word?
  • Yes, I am a man of my word.
    • Player: Yes, I am a [man/woman] of my word.
    • Bill Teach: Arr! Ye struck me as a [man/woman] of integrity!
    • Bill Teach: My ship is the Adventurous, and she's at the east dock.
    • Player: You won't...err...I mean ye'll not regret it Cap'n!
    • Bill Teach: I'm sure I won't.
    • (End of dialogue)
  • No, if it's so dangerous your crew left, count me out.
    • Player: No, if it's so dangerous your crew left, count me out.
    • Bill Teach: Well, that doesn't surprise me much.
    • Bill Teach: On yer way [lad/lass], leave me be.
    • (End of dialogue)
• No thanks, it sounds quite dangerous.
  • Player: No thanks, it sounds quite dangerous.
  • Bill Teach: Aye, that it be. Come back when yer liver ain't so lily-like, [lad/lass].
  • (End of dialogue)

• Bill Teach: Arr! They seek te hole the ship! Go and take care of their cannon.
