The Cutlass
an excerpt

Carorcyn turned to Anox suddenly and stared him in the eyes, “Imagine if you will you are some ancient pirate who just landed a fat score of loot. About a hundred million credits worth of treasure. What would you do with it?”
“Why I’d go to the nearest port and start spending it till it was gone!” Anox said, “Buy me a whole fleet of ships!”
“Exactly!” Carorcyn shouted, “You wouldn’t bury it in some god-forgotten part of the universe and draw a f***ing map to get back to it at some other point!”
Anox was taken aback, “But say you had to bury it because you couldn’t spend it at that time. If you were being chased and HAD to come back for it later”
“If you’re being chased, you don’t have time to hide the treasure, do you?” Carorcyn asked hypothetically and turned back to his food, shoving a huge forkful into his mouth.
“I thought kids were supposed to believe in that sort of thing” Anox said
Carorcyn swallowed what he was eating, “Sebastian, do you believe in ‘that sort of thing’?”
Sebastian didn’t look up from his food, “No sir”
