The sea churns black beneath a bruised and stormy sky. Rain lashes the deck of your ship, the timbers groaning from a cannon's impact. Smoke from the blast mixes with the salt spray and the metallic scent of blood; your crew scatters like startled gulls across the slick planks.

'Hand it over, and I might let you keep your life.'
