1685
I shall always remember the day your fleet made landfall off the coast of Virginia, green sails and shouts marking your arrival.
We were terrified we would be trading one oppressor for another, but you showed us the way of freedom and liberty when you invited us to join your crew. That day, I learned the value of defiance and justice, even in the face of overwhelming despair.
But I was sorely mistaken. After all the settlements plundered in your wake, and the scores of dead that lined the streets and seas, under your banner, I realised you are not the man I once knew.
I have long paid off my debt, Philippe. And if this is the pirate code, then I renounce it.
I have taken the artifact, the one said to have enough power to make one’s dreams come true… or damn one to eternal torment. It rests in my pocket as I leave to forge my own destiny in the Indian Ocean. Knowing you, you will try to follow me, but from a former friend and fellow rogue, know that you do so at your own peril.
