At World's End: Chapter 2

I had heard rumors about two years ago that Jack Sparrow had been in Port Royal. But that was when I had gone home to England to see my family. That, however, is a different story. Jack could not have been in Port Royal. Couldn't. He's dead. That island was in the middle of nowhere and not even the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow could get himself out of that one.

I was commissioned to make a new coat for Lord Beckett today. It appears that he has taken over as governor. I always liked Governor Swann. It seems truly unfair of the East India Trading Company to do such a thing, but I still am a pirate at heart and will never like them. They tried to spoil a lot of my fun in the old days.

I didn't want to do the fitting. I knew that Governor Swann was going to be there as well, strictly for appearances, nothing more. Swann had me make his daughter a dress, right before I went to London. He wanted high fashion. I gave him high fashion. But then I heard that some bloody imbecile cut it off his daughter. That was the last dress I had made for Miss Swann. I had up until that point made all of her other formal dresses as well.

Little did I know that while I was preparing to measure the Commodore, my old friend Tia Dalma was setting some others out on a mission to find me.

"You need to find her," Tia Dalma told the remaining crew.

"Her?" Barbossa snarled.

His tone made Tia smile. He knew exactly who she was talking about.

"She's still alive? I thought when she jumped ship she was shark food," the captain smirked.

"She's made of stronger stuff than you could have ever imagined. She's made of the same stuff Jack Sparrow is."

"How is any of this going to help us?" Will interrupted.

"She has a compass like Jack's."

"She does!" Barbossa fumed. "She lied to me thirteen years ago."

"Now isn't the time for that, Barbossa." Tia Dalma tried to calm him. "Go find her and take her with you. She will help you save Jack."

"Why do you want Jack Sparrow back so much?" Elizabeth shakily asked.

"Because the world is a sad place without Jack Sparrow."
