“It’s GOT to be a pirate ship. Black sails, no flag…pirates.”

“No timid merchant is going to fly BLACK sails. Not unless he’s so timid he’s a smuggler, har har. So we have to assume it’s a pirate ship, and flee like hell!”
“Look, they’re hailing us! White flag on a stick, and waving… …all frantic!”
“That’s no pirate, you dolts, it’s a PLAGUE ship! Have a look, through the spyglass! LOOK at them, along the rail!”
“I am. Not plague victims, though I’ll grant they may be POST-plague victims. Yon are undead.”#epic fantasy— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 15, 2018

“Undead! UNDEAD! FLEEEEE!”
“No, wait, LOOK! The woman on the end, watch her! She waves, she shoves a potion down the face of one of the undead, and they come back to life! Elixir of Life, that is!

“No, I’m a necromancer. And YOU…are doomed!”
