334 - Clear your head with delicious STARBOARDS© COFFEE
Your head is hurting you pretty bad. There's been a dull aching at the back of your mind since you woke up up the BUREAUCRAT'S OFFICE, but now it's starting to make it hard to think. Noticing that you don't have any VARIOUS MONIES*, you ask CREWMAN #18 if you can bum some VARIOUS MONIES to buy a COFFEE. He actually seems to care for your WELL-BEING and hands you his own COFFEE, saying that you obviously need it more than he does.You take a couple of deep swigs of the DRINK and look around.
It's a NINJA! IN DISGUISE!!!
And this COFFEE is FANTASTIC!!!

333 - Expose NINJA, talk to CREWMAN
You immediately point out that there's a---
There's a....
NINJA? What NINJA? You're, you're...
...getting...
Hmm?
Oh, you should talk to that CREWMAN! STEELWOOD CORSAIR and his CREW seem to have their HEADS screwed on pretty tight. Maybe he knows something about the NINJA to whom you supposedly owe a FAVOR.
JET: Evening, sailor!
CREWMAN #18: Miss Thunderson.
JET: Quick question. Know anything about a captured ninja in the prison?
CREWMAN #18: Aye. We caught one purplebelly who was trying to sneak around this side of the city. Stinking wet, probably just crawled out of the river. Didn't put up a fight so some of Threeplank's boys hauled him over to the Penitentiary.
JET: Tell your boss that he... that he.... You know what, never mind. I think.... I think we're....
CREWMAN #18: ...ma'am?
JET: ...getting off topic....
332 - Go NORTH
You come out the NORTH end of the SOUTH ALLEY and look to your WEST. There is a COFFEE SHOP here called "Starboards" which is still open and serving DRINKS (probably to keep these PIRATES fighting through the night). There are a few TABLES in front of the SHOP, along with a wonderful RIVERFRONT VIEW to the WEST.
Three GRIZZLED PIRATES stand by the EDGE, staring off across the RIVER. They appear to be watching the PUGILISTIC ACTIVITIES with calm but keen INTEREST, seemingly unworried by the occasional NINJA STAR, KUNAI or EXPLOSIVE that flies their way. Other persons of interest include the BARRISTA in the SHOP who is serving one of STEELWOOD CORSAIR'S CREW, the aforementioned CREWMAN and one of the blue-clothed PIRATE GUARDS like you've seen all over the ISLAND.
Exits are NORTH through the NORTH ALLEY, WEST into the RIVER, EAST down this STREET and SOUTH back through the SOUTH ALLEY to the BRIDGE SQUARE.
What do you do?
