'Look for striped sails' they said. Every other ship's got stripes on its sails. Like asking us to look for a fish with a tail.

Involvement

Act Three

Matey Tallhamper and fellow sailor Dollivar Noot can be encountered talking to each other at the docks. They are on the lookout for a ship they are supposed to leave on, which has possibly left already.

If Gortash is defeated, Matey Tallhamper and Dollivar Noot leave and can no longer be found.

Idle banter

Matey Tallhamper: I'm starting to think they've forgotten about us.

• Dollivar Noot: They'd better not. They haven't even paid us for the shipment yet.
  • Matey Tallhamper: I ain't seen no new ships in a while though.

Dollivar Noot: They can't have sailed off without us, right?

• Matey Tallhamper: Better hope not, I'll run out of coin if I stay here a day longer than I have to.
  • Dollivar Noot: I'd kill for a pint of mermaid's breath. These city brews ain't got much bite to 'em.

Dollivar Noot: Is that The Endless Miracle?

• Matey Tallhamper: No, you conk. It ain't got stripes on the sails.
  • Dollivar Noot: Aren't those stripes? I see stripes!
    • Matey Tallhamper: Those are spots you idiot.
