Velora smiled sweetly at the curly haired pirate who was helping her so generously. She was astounded by how wrong her father was, not all pirates are bad, some actually want to help and know compassion and love. However her smile dimmed as the young male told her of why he had become a pirate. How he had been tricked and forced onto a ship under false pretenses.
"Come with me," the words left her lips before she even had the chance to comprehend what she was saying, "I-uh- I mean, if you help me get off this ship unscathed I will help you find your father." Velora awaited the young mans answer afraid that he would say no.

"Well Eleanor," he paused making sure he had her name right, when she nodded her head slightly he continued, "Whatever your father has told you, he's wrong. Not all pirates are evil and want mermaids for the reasons you may have been told about," pausing he looked at the brunette. "I honestly want to help you be reunited with your sister. No mermaid deserves to be plucked from her home, none." Stopping he looked into her dark eyes and spoke again. "Come you must be famished." with that he grabbed her hand and pulled her back into his quarters before he began removing various jars and bottles.
