The Island of Destiny

You agree to the captain's offer and a few moments later, you are walking across the beach with Captain Bones and Shmitty trailing behind. You come to a small rowboat and the Captain gets in first, then motions for you to follow suit. Shmitty grudgingly steps in last and takes up the two oars. Grumbling under his breath, you three start to sail away towards the looming pirate ship in the distance.

"So where are you from anyways?" you ask, as casually as you can.

"Arrgh, we be the renegades from the island of Barbados, scouring these waters for riches and sacred treasure."

You look at him confused. "Uhmm..why are you dressed so authentic?"

"Authentic matey?" he questions you. "What would that even mean?"

"Er..." you start to respond. "I guess nothing."

You have no idea why but it seems like you've run into some actual 17th century pirates. Should you continue to ask the Captain questions or stay silent the rest of the trip?
