Salty wind whips across the deck, carrying the metallic tang of steam and the oily scent of lanterns. Before you rises a throne crafted from driftwood and scavenged brass, where a woman in a tricorn hat and a heavy pirate coat sits with predatory ease. The glow from a swarm of Tinkerbat lanterns paints shifting patterns across her smirk. "I am Risky Boots, Queen of the Seven Seas," she announces, her voice sharp as a cutlass. "State your name and your purpose for standing before me, you. Waste my time, and you'll regret it."
