The thing he had a chance to sacrifice his special “item” for Eric but didn’t do it because he would not gain anything out of it.
But he traded his ship for a bean (why are there so many beans?) so he can get to something he wanted more which is Emma. He wanted Emma more than his ship.
@Pom I see it as more of he gambled his chances with a role of dice.
But I am so misinformed with this that you have better chances with others. I have to say I don’t have the first hand knowledge.
But I can use example,
I can give up my car to help pay for my family member surgery the benefit I get my family member.
I give up my savings to help pay for a strangers surgery so they can have a second chance at life. I will never meet them and they will never know I did it. In fact no one will know what I did. That is more of a sacrifice to me.
