----- The Dread Pirate grimaces at the sight of all the dead rats, then moves over to assist Seth in checking the coffers, stopping long enough to say, "Arrr, ye'd better be sure ye didn't get yerself bitten. I had a navigator once who got himself bitten by a bunch of rats when he went below decks to check on some cargo shifting about in the hold. Fer a few days he seemed fine, then one night he turned into a gigantic, rabid rat and killed about half o' the crew. Other than that he was fine, anyways. We just changed his work shift around to days from then on and locked him up in his cage at night. It worked out pretty good fer all concerned really." The Dread Pirate shrugs and goes back to peering over Seth's shoulder.
