== Full Text ==
Kiri has heard the announcement, and doesn’t know what to do.  She continues her preparations regardless, trying to think.
It’s then that she finally comes face to face with the pirate.  And she suddenly realizes that she’s heard of this one.
"Odin’s beard!" she gasps.  "You’re - Little Cabbage, Scourge of the Seas?!"
“Cap’n Little Cabbage, if yeh be so kind,” the tiny Seaguard bows.  “Yeh be from the eastern shores, eh?”  She glances at the ninja 
garb.  “Hidden Sky Village, if I be not mistaken?”
Kiri nods dumbly.  “Yes.  I’m… Kiri.  The tea girl, if you ever stopped at the tea house there in the last seven years.”
"Aha!  Knew yeh looked familiar," Little Cabbage points.  "Years ago, ‘back when I was still helmsman.  Dealin’ with boiled leaf juice, that be powerful witchery indeed.  What’re yeh doin’ all the way out here in this Rebellion, lass?"
Kiri grimaces.  “I left on the traditional ninja Walkabout… ended up enlisting here.  Um… so you made quite the entrance.  You’re very far inland…”
"Lookin’ fer a treasure," the Seaguard cackles with a laugh.  "Gettin’ a bit distracted in the process.  Yer ol’ battlemaster’s a walrus’ ass."
"Yes, I… heard that."  From you, if that was you screaming it earlier.
It reminds her of recent things, and she sighs, knowing that a witch hunt will at least give her an outlet to stress.  Then she thinks of her duties, the Rebellion…
With a calm smile, she takes a balled pair of her handknitted socks and gives them to Little Cabbage.  “Well, welcome to the Rebellion,” she smiles.
Little Cabbage stares at the socks.  “What’m I supposed ta’ do with these?”
"Wear them of course," Kiri winks at her.  "I have to be off, preparing for some hunting.  It’s an honor to meet you, Captain."
She bows and goes on her way.
Little Cabbage watches her go, perplexed.  Then she unrolls the socks.
Blue and red wool, fine stitching, even some textured patterns and knots.  The ninjas of the Hidden Sky Village were always good with their hands.
Her eyes widen for a moment as she marvels over the stitching quality.  Then she pulls off her boots, pulls on the socks, and puts the boots back on.
She saunters off with her axe over her shoulder, whistling the Herring Song as she goes.
