Olmec: One of the youngest, yet boldest, sea captains of the 1800s was Captain John Greenwood. At only 21, he became captain of his own ship and set off on his first voyage. But soon, he and his men were overcome by Joseph Whelan, the most treacherous pirate on the bounding main. Greenwood's crew was terrrified, but Greenwood never lost his nerve./"Take the ship, but let my men go free."/"Free? Har! See this?" And he took out his dreaded hornpipe. "You'll all be dancin' the last hornpipe jig from the yardarm by morning. Take 'em below."/The pirates towed the ship amidst of their pirate fleet, and only Whelan and three mates stayed aboard with Greenwood to count their booty./"Bust the crate over there, ye lovers. Captain, what cargo are ya carryin?"/"I can't remember, but I got a list if you'll take me to the cabin."/As the greedy pirates gathered around the list, Greenwood backed away and locked them in the cabin. He threw the mate on deck overboard. Pirates on the surrounding ships began firing on him, but Greenwood ran through the wizzing musket balls, cut the ship free, and sailed away before they could stop him. Joseph Whelan went down with his ship, but his hornpipe washed ashore in the Temple. Your quest is to find the lost hornpipe of the Pirate Captain and bring it back here.
Kirk: All right. So tell us. Where is this lost hornpipe.
Olmec: The lost hornpipe of the pirate captain can be found in the Quicksand Bog.
Kirk: Oh ho.
