- And a sharp lad,

who's had some experience

of the world, could quite easily...

- Sorry. What did you say?

- I said, I'm going home.

What home?

Home, home. Back across the sea,

where I live. You know!

- Oh!

- It occurred to me last night,

all this travelling and seeing things is fine,

but there's a lot of fun to be had

in having been.

You know, putting your pictures in a book,

remembering things.

- There is?

- Oh, yeah. And the important thing

about having a lot of things to remember

is that you have to have

some place to go afterwards

where you can remember them.

You haven't really been anywhere

until you've got back home.

Oh, good.

Well, if that's the way you see it,

when are you going?

Today, I think. There's bound to be

a ship going part of the way.

Yes, I... I expect so.

That settles it.

He'll drop me at the Brown Islands,

and I can easily get a ship from there.

Oh, well. Great.

- Ahem!

- Oh!

- You found a priest, then.

- Yes.

And Cohen didn't even try to kill

him for his valuables.

It's a great dress.

Thank you. I stole it myself.

Oh.

Look, this is for you two.

Oh!

I know it can be expensive,

setting up home.

Or a small kingdom, even.

I've also thought about

something I can give you.

Oh! Really, no. You don't have to.

It's all yours. I don't need it any more,

and it won't really fit on my wardrobe.

What?

The Luggage! Don't you want it?

Oh! Luggage!

Ah.

Yes...

But it's yours!

It follows you. It won't follow me.

Oh.

Luggage?

This is Rincewind. You're his now, right?

It doesn't really belong to anyone

but itself, really.

Yes.

Well, I guess this is it.

Yes.

Goodbye, Rincewind. When I get home,

I'll send you a postcard or something.

- Oh, come here.

- Oh!

And anytime you're passing,

someone here is bound to know

where I am.

Yeah.

Well,

I guess that's about it, then.

Yes. That's about it, right enough.

Right.

Yeah.

Right.

No, no, no! Don't want you.

I give you to yourself. You understand?

I said I don't want you! Go!

Go away!

All right! Come on.

So, does that mean

the star turtle's female, then?

Well, in my opinion,

it's all a question of perspective.
