13. In her Majesty’s service

The Fortuna set out for Jamestown. The Captain Enrique Velasquez had for a time been increasingly concerned about Cousin Phoebe’s safety in Jamestown. We sailed there as fast as the sails could carry us – I think that if it had helped to get the men out and push, the Captain would have ordered itFortsæt læsning “13. In her Majesty’s service”

12. Spirits

Fiona’s accounte of the adventure on the farthest island are somewhat incomplete, as her remembrance of the place is somewhat hazy and nonsensical. I have tried to question Hawk and the sailors who accompanied them on shore, but there are still gaps and odd inconsistencies in the story. So bear with me if the followingFortsæt læsning “12.

11. Brotherhoode of the coast

Truth is that Goldmouthe’s reputation never quite recovered that flight. The remains of his men where hung, that is those who actually survived and didn’t manage to flee into the jungle. The rumor where soon spread that Goldmouthe had fled from a personal fight with Fiona Blackwell; that she had no quarrel with his men,Fortsæt læsning “11. Brotherhoode of the coast”

10. Making war on Goldemouthe

On our way back I ran into Nwgolo, quite the young man now. He wore an officers’ band of the White Gang – it seemed my luck followed me still. Nwgolo was happy to see me (I believe he had had a crush on me when we were kids), and he was quick to joinFortsæt læsning “10. Making war on Goldemouthe”

9. Port Royal in Goldemouthes grasp

Fiona’s narration continues: “On our way to Port Royal we paused at Jamesport a few days to take on supplies and to let the Captain spend a few days with his fiancée. Jean-Luc and I took some time off to looke at the sights. The rumours in the town were amongst others that a codorianFortsæt læsning “9. Port Royal in Goldemouthes grasp”

8. Lord of the winds

We set our course west. The directions we had were as I have previously explained incomplete until the captain noticed some numbers on the only key yet unused. We added the number and lo and behold; We had our destination! We were heading far into the Rainsbirths Sea. In addition to that I had alsoFortsæt læsning “8. Lord of the winds”

7. Saint Jamesport – City of the dulle

“As we lefte Port Royal I saw my old nemesis enter the harbour; Goldmouthe sailed past us on ‘The Fury’. She lay heavy in the water, and filled up with cargo as she was, she would be no threat to us. I hoped that was the last we would see of that accursed ship. GoldmoutheFortsæt læsning “7. Saint Jamesport – City of the dulle”

6. Following clues

Ah, Port Royal! How goode it was to be back! I much prefer having a deck under my feet to dry land, but Port Royal is unsteady enough to suit me. We had barely reached ShantyTown before we were attacked by eight meanlooking hoodlems. They must have been new in town for they didn’t reactFortsæt læsning “6. Following clues”

4. St. Thomas

…Missing pages… A weeke after Charles’ tragic death the crew tooke a vote for a new captain. Fiona looked upon the Querida as her inheritance, but Alejandro (the first mate) did not see it so. A vote was taken, and as Fiona later tolde me: ‘He was better at cheating than I and thus heFortsæt læsning “4. St. Thomas”
