[ it's not that unusual for ladies to come find him in the hopes of hearing more of his adventures and he always thinks it's a pleasure. this time even more than usual since Eudio is still a new place for him. although perhaps he should get used to it since his reputation seems to have preceded him. ]
I see.
To claim that pirates rarely have the opportunity address a lady wouldn't be a lie either but in my case it isn't quite so. Back in the Enchanted Forest the royalty often wanted me to do their dirty work for them.
[ let's not pretend all princesses are like Snow White. he has a feeling she knows what he's talking about. ]

Some ladies are girls are some are women, I am of the latter sort. Whatever dirty work I have, I do it on my own.
[ honestly, the world could do with more royalty handling their own problems. Morgana's attitude is one he looks up to so he can already tell they'll get along fine. ]
I won't argue that it didn't pay well, but often I found that my heart was simply not in it.
[ in a way, her heart was never in her own duties as a lady, either. for all the jewelry and the silks, there was a heavy price that soon became a heavier burden. ]
Kings can be idle and cruel. It's an easy path to take from a good king to a mad tyrant.
So am I truly the first scoundrel you have had the pleasure of meeting? Or is it simply pirates that you are currently interested in?
[ he somehow doubts Morgana spent all her life locked up in a tower like some of the ladies he has met. it's like she said, she's no damsel and so far she has showed no sign of uncertainty even though she is in the present of a murderer and a thief. he's starting to assume it wasn't only curiosity that brought her here. ]
