WESTLEY AND BUTTERCUP PATCH
But now that he’s found Buttercup, he says that he too shall retire, and pass the job on to someone else.Īs he finishes his story, Buttercup is sucked suddenly and completely into a small patch of quicksand. He offered Westley the job, and for two years Westley assumed Roberts’ identity and captained the ship. One night, Roberts revealed that he was not the real Dread Pirate Roberts, nor even was his predecessor, but that the real Roberts had been retired 15 years, and that each man that took over his position as captain took on his name to continue his fearsome reputation. For three years, Westley lived as his servant, learning fencing and other skills, and eventually he and Roberts became friends. Westley puts it out and they continue on, avoiding another bout of popping and a second fire plume.ĭeeper in the swamp, Westley recounts how it was true that he asked the Dread Pirate Roberts to spare his life so that he might return to Buttercup, but that in fact Roberts took pity on him and took him on as a valet, though he threatened to kill him just about every night. They hear a deep popping noise in the ground, followed by a burst of flames that light Buttercup’s skirt on fire.
In the dark, ominous swamp, the two navigate thick trees and vines.
Westley and Buttercup see the prince and his men following them from atop the ravine and run into the Fire Swamp, from which Westley claims no one has ever come out alive.
