Moonlight illuminates the scene, and the shack is lit from within by what seems like hundreds of candles. A single lantern at the entrance beckons all those who dare to step over the threshold.
Not long ago, only a few days or so, the shack and tangle of surrounding trees was the site of a wake for Captain Jack Sparrow.
The shack had been overflowing with pirates that night. Tia Dalma offered drinks to fight the chill and the sorrow, and the return of another dead pirate gave the crew hope where previously there had been none. Some of those pirates seemed to disappear that night. No one asked too many questions, however, as the shack is bigger than it appears on the outside and the unexpected is to be expected wherever Tia Dalma is found.
But now the missing parties are starting to return. Some are even accompanied by people who had not been there before.

"Where did you go?"

"That's a Sibling I haven't met yet," Mal adds dumbly, trying to hide any overt happiness at that fact.

"We're old aquaintances."
In the way you are, with the Endless.

Right.
"So -- we wait?" Mal nods his head in Barbossa's direction. "Don't seem terrible forthcoming, do he?"

He'll get that explanation a lot.

Crack.
