In the wake of the disappearance of its new rulers,
Port Fortune lies within the ocean with no master.
And so one particular Sirenian makes her intent clear.

Quote:

Once upon a time, I called these islands home. There had been some issues with people, certainly, and so I eventually found my way to where I am now-... but not even for a moment have the seas stopped being somewhere I belong. No, far from it-... the legends I have only known by ear and tablet, passed down through generations amongst my people, are real. I have conquered them, conquering them to this day. The seas are mine to safeguard, to protect, to oversee. All of this is to say, of course...

I think this place would look nicely with black and white banners hanging from up high. Athelios would surely love to see Aphros with a navy, and Yama would thank me for reclaiming the seas from the wretches.

What do you think?

As claims carry over the seas,
A single, shy voice calls out
Declaring this place his home

Quote:When the Hand of God desolated these islands, I often wandered here to gather fruit. Eventually, as the witches no longer showed their faces, I fixed up a few of the buildings to call home.

I hoped to follow in the footsteps of my boss and create a place of my own. A quiet isle safe from troubles, for travelers to pay their respects to Enarr and Chireus. I had hoped that the fall of the coven would mean nothing but peace...

And so I hope it stays that way.

Grudges that span years long past
Long forgotten by the old wave-beaten shores
A ghastly mist rolls on the island

Quote:YARHARHAR! Nothing! That's what'll be left of ye! Ye dare claim the land I's worked so hard on?! Ye'll know the wrath of Captain Barbanegra, Scourge of Enarr's Sea! I scorned the sea while I's was alive, I'll scorn it all the same now that I's dead! Me and me crew will make quick work of any of ye dirty pretenders! Sirenians always think that whatever's on the sea is theirs- Well's I's got news! The sea is MINE. I'll make sure ye remember me name and the pain I'll wrought upon ye both!
Prepare yer livin' redblooded bones! Landlubbers and Fish alike, yer both goin' to be gutted at the end of me blade! Port Fortune's ought to be me crownin' jewel, dedicated to me greatness and legend! So prepare...

AND GIVE THEM NO QUARTER!

Quote:"What'sit? Now, all o' ye've lost yer minds! Th' island belonged ta th' kingdom o' Fortune, an' ta th' kingdom it should go back! Th' Lady Emeraldi'll surely make 'er stance on it clear soon 'nough, though, an' i'm sure ye'll recognize er legal claim, so I woulda left it there. But fer a Corpse ta be makin' such a bold claim..."

"Hel no!"

"Captin Barbanegra, were it? I reckon I 'eard that name, 'fore... when ye were on th' fields o' th' Vigil, tryin' ta do some Ritual wit' that Vile Staff O' yers. That settles it. Wait right there! I'll be sure ta send ye an' yer crew's souls on yer  merry way..."

"AFTA I STRAP YE TA A BLOODY PYRE!"

Bartolt Challenges Barbanegra to defend the island from an Undead incursion.

Quote:It has been almost a year, has it not? For those of you all who want a piece of this, I've given you time to speak. Whether you want to help or not, it matters not.
I will take this island from any wretches who'd see it desecrated myself, if I have to. I have no taste for reticence.

AND SO, THE BELLS TOLL.
Caius' Locker awaits those who cannot fulfill their duty, and with it shall Hel take them. No depth will fathom the insatiable greed of a pirate, nor the wanderlust of a sirenian.

A battle of disconcert, for a stolen port long abandoned by its previous owners.

Quote:BE PREPARED, YE CACK-HANDED MORTALS! YE THINK A LIL' BIT O' SKIN IS GON' SAVE YE?! ENARR AND CHIREUS HAVE SCORNED ME ONCE AND FAILED, WHAT DO YE HOPE TO ACHIEVE IN THESE SEAS?! I AM A CURSE, A BLESSIN'! A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE.
DYING, IS A DAY WORTH LIVING FOR!
TO STARBOARD! FULL SAIL AHEAD! WE MAKE LAND AT-
