@ Unreg, again:

2. The fact it isn't described is why it's an "unanswered question". And to be honest - you can never assume things in any novel which aren't directly supported by textual evidence.

7. I don't know how to reply to this except to restate my original point: treasure is useless without something to give it value.

14. I have yet to see someone produce a direct quote from the book saying there were only four.

19. Granted. This is basically a joke, but in the case of the galley slaves it does sort of bother me.
