So the Story Goes

Summary:
Sometimes, there is more to old stories than one would think. A pirate crew, and a cook who can see just a little bit more than most.

“Granny, what's this?” The old lady looked up from her cooking and nearly dropped her spoon.“I thought I'd lost that...” She took the book in shaking hands, stroking the cover gently. She opened it carefully, as if afraid it would break, and quickly lost herself in the words.
It was written in an old language, one she had learned from her grandmother as a little girl. It was the language of antique whispers, of a childhood by the sea, of secrets passed down from a very different time. It was the language of the old lullabies and songs she had once known...
Maybe it was because of her age, but when she managed to pull herself from her nostalgia, she forgot to speak in the common tongue.
“Would you like me to read it to you?” It was a language that had faded away long ago, one that had lost its place in the world and slowly been forgotten...
Perhaps that is why she nearly wept when the boy answered in kind.

“No! Those silver things!” The old lady glanced back up, before giving the boy an apologetic look.“I'm sorry dear, but I really don't see what you're talking about.” The boy frowned for a moment, but then apparently decided to let it go and continue with what he had been doing.
He never asked again.
