Le Ge Rouge du Petro will not bring any glory to your name.”  His eyes bore into Blackbeard's with a supernatural intensity as Libète begins to burn hot inside of him, “Whoever holds that gem will receive a fury and vengeance that this world hasn't seen since Bondye himself brought his wrath down upon Sodom.  The curse that will fall on that man will be so severe that men will fear to speak his name even in a whisper.  All the deeds of his life will be ground to dust one by one so no memory of him will remain on this earth.  Every life that carries his blood will be hunted down and devoured.  His soul will not suffer in the abyss of death with the vilest of murderers.  No, such a fate is to kind by far.  Instead, it will have a special home so far away from any other spirit that it shall never hear the cries of another.  It will endure such a unique, consuming, and unending torment that he will wish that he had never been born.  You fear the djab and rightly so.  I tell you the truth, the terror that will come after that gem will make a man wish for a djab to take him in the night to spare him from the coming wrath.”Blaise's mood shifts suddenly as a manic smile crosses his lips, “But that is an uncomfortable topic, and we came to talk of happy things.  Whether the ship's title is in your name or not, you claim people will call it yours.  We can help with that.  Sign the ship over to us.  Break the connection and let us face the djab.  You desire glory.  Baubles do not purchase glory or a legacy.  No, that only comes from great deeds that will be remembered from generation to generation.  You must become a legend that men speak of in awe.”“That kind of glory can be yours, noble Blackbeard.  Picture the story on the lips of every man, woman, and child in the Caribbean.  The great and mighty Blackbeard striding out in the dead of night for one final glorious battle to prove his mettle to the world once and for all.  You stride onto the Coral Curse in the dead of night when the djab is at its mightiest.  You draw your blade without hesitation for no man nor spirit can lay claim to what belongs to Blackbeard!  It is a battle for the ages!  The spirit claws at your very soul, but Blackbeard's heart is stronger than the foulest of black magics and you drive your blade into a heart darker than night and banish the spirit back to whatever dark hell spawned it.  For generations, men will compare themselves to the pirate lord who slew a djab singlehandedly and find themselves wanting.  Men will hold their manhood cheap while your story is told while women will weep that they will never know the touch of a man of such strength.  It will be a feat never matched and a legend unending.  And you do not have to lift a blade.  Meet us in the dark tonight.  You must be there for the story to take root afterall, but that is all you must do.  We will deal with the djab.  If we perish in the attempt, you are no worse than today.  If we succeed, we agree to our dying breath to tell the tale of your glorious victory over the djab.  Afterwards, we will make a show of what has already been signed.  You will publicly give the Coral Curse to Captain Katerina to repay a debt to her late father.  In your moment of triumph, you will seal your legacy as a man of honor.  This is your opportunity for the kind of greatness that most mortal men will never touch.  You can be a legend.”</blockquote>
