Cloak watched as Qrow went into his office, he then looked back at Leslie, "hmmm," he grumbled in a low tone, he suddenly warped himself from a walkway on the second floor into Qrows office, "Qrow, you and I both know that I only have a few months left to live, but you, you have an eternity, you know more than I do, so why not question her," Cloak said
"im going to do that kid, and I know you only have a few months left, but I found a way to cheat a persons death when I turned two hundred," Qrow said as he stood up, "follow me," he said as he went outside, "everyone, I'm going to tell you a story," he announced

"yes my lord," a young Qrow said
"ahh, you must be Qrow, hello, I want to recruit you as the captain of the armada that I am sending to find the fountain of youth," the king of pain at the time said
"I accept," Qrow said

"c'mon men, the captain is a patient man, but that does not give you the permission to slack off and drink all day," A man said
"HAH," A crew member scoffed, "how are we to know there even is a cap-" the crewmember was cut off by a man stepping out of the captains' courters
"who here is doubting my authority as captain," Qrow said
"him sir," the second in command said
"Great, just great, the cook," Qrow said, "put him in a boat and leave him here," Qrow said while going back into the captain courters, "we are no less than a month away," he added

a man banged on the captains' door, "we're approaching land captain," the second in command said
Qrow walked out of his room and smiled, "stop the ship, we row from here," he said
once they got to the island their ship was attacked by mermaids, flesh-eating monsters, disgusting things
"Sir, the crew th-," a crew member said
"if you lived as long as I have you'd know death would be eternal peace, I was religious when I was a young man, I thought that if I died that would be the end of it but no, I was stabbed through the head and woke up no more than an hour later the sword and its owner were laying next to me, so, you see, dying, is just an eternal rest, sometimes it lasts, sometimes it doesn't," Qrow said

"that crew member and I became good friends, I met his wife and kids, but the weirdest thing is, when we were at the fountain of youth, I gave him the cup with the mermaids tear in it, I remember being torn apart by the water, but I woke up a day later still healing yes, but I was still alive, everything except for my right hand was completely healed, and the crew member, well he lived another hundred years, he died from being shot in the heart, you see, I gave him years, I didn't give him my healing process, I gave him life none the less, I know how to cheat death, he was told he'd die in his thirties, but he did in his hundred twenties," Qrow said
