Rabid: What's this? A prow!! A discovery, a find!

Dr Quickly: Extraordinary! Quite certainly a Coffee Ship, the stuff of ancient legend!
Rabid: Wow!!

Dr Quickly: Long ago, these ships would cross the Moist Desert, with huge vacwm flasks keeping their treasure piping hot.
Rabid: I wonder what Coffee was made out of, to be so valued in trade.

Dr Quickly: We suppose no ships have been found before because of the terrible effect of corrosion on the vacwm chamber.
Rabish: There could be Coffee inside?!
