The Gulf of Liad - The Blackheart
Lucius stood at the stern of his ship, a smile on his face as the wind rushed through his hair. His eyes were closed, but that didn't matter much on the open sea.
This was the first time they had sailed The Blackheart under it's new name. Their flag rose high upon the mast, their massive black sails roared within the winds, and the crew worked quickly and efficiently to get them into the Gulf of Liad. His eyes slowly folded open, a breath filling his lungs as he focused upon the horizon.
All of this.
This was what he had missed.
Fingers rested on the steering wheel of the ship, keeping it steady as they crawled further and further towards the distant land known simply as 'The Crescent'. It was the curved piece of land directly beneath Eaglehead, famed for it's spices and the wine that flowed from there. It was also famous for it's massive Sea Fortress known simply as 'The Stone'.
That was where they were going.
When Lucius and Peyton had selected their new crew, they had promised two things; wealth and infamy.
That was what Lucius intended to deliver, and the Stone was where they would seize even more of both.
