"Really no worries at all. Im not a man of large stature, especially compared to that of a giant." The next comment pierced through the open air like a knife. Eden had almost forgotten that what happened to him and his nakama was made quite public. They spared no expense to spread word about his failure, what better way to put fear in the hearts of pirates than to make an example of any pirate daring enough to challenge him. Though the expedition had not been a complete waste, they had manage to cover the tracks of the well known pirates they saved, in fact because his actions they had now publicly made their way to the new world to spite the marines. He almost lost himself to thought, but the woman's follow up question brought him down to his senses.
"What is my goal? That's funny thing to ask, because I dont have one. To me being a pirate means being free. Free to take care of yourself, and to do and explore as you please. That is what I wish to do, I wish to be free again. I also have a promise to my nakama that needs to be kept." Eden's eyes began to gleam as he opened his mind to dreams of being free, and as they did he stared deep into to Hertha's eyes. "And I dont plan to let anything stop me. So tell me Hertha Redrivers, do you want to be free with me? Do you want to join my crew?"
