In the pirate's life, we know there be a time for hidin' and a time for takin' action. For now, I be choosin' shells, on account o’ their metaphor to hunker down and await the tide of fate. But keep yer cutlasses sharp and yer eyes peeled, for the winds of change can shift as swiftly as a rogue wave.
