Captain Rackstraw ~ Log entry 05 Today off the cost of shantytown, we saw a group of pirate ships passing by. They did not give us any trouble; in fact, they even offered to buy some fish from us. You see the pirates are not the bloodthirsty group of thieves that many British officers portray them to be. They are only strong-willed men who dare to venture the great sea and make their fortunes by praying upon the naval fleets. If only they could be remembered for the strong souls they are. ~Close Log

Captain Rackstraw ~ Log entry 04 To the grave shall I take these letters. The British navy must never find them, if they do all of the legends will crumble and be forgotten as ancient myths. You see the sea monsters are real, I’ve seen them with my own eyes. I have seen the power of the Steipereidur, a massive monster-whale like creature. The cowards that call themselves the “British Navy” would have you believe that it is a merciless beast that leaves no one left alive when it attacks. On the contrary it is the savior of us simple fishermen. The Steipereidur fights for us against other creatures that mean us harm, (this includes of course the British thieves.) That is the main reason the Navy wishes to have people hunt the gentle giant, they fear her. ~Close log
