quote:
"Permission to sail back to San Alfonso to celebrate?" Suerte asks, and you have a feeling it's a test.
1. Granted. We'll show San Alfonso the strength of the Pirate King's fleet.
2. Granted, so long as they raise their own colors.
3. Better to stay clear of San Alfonso for now.
quote:
There's no sense in revealing the identities of the Pirate King's fleet to pirates who might well sell that information to the Crown. You hear an acknowledgment, and then the shouts of several captains—one a woman in her forties, whose first mate is a young man who bears remarkably similar features to her, another who wears a bright yellow coat and hat—as the ships are given their new headings. It will be a night to celebrate in San Alfonso.
And so it is. You find that by the time you arrive, the Lobo Negro is already filled to bursting, and everyone wants to buy you a drink. You'd like to say you remember every moment, but later it becomes a blur of color and heat and cheers, and all you can recall is the elation of success. San Alfonso, for the moment, is safe, and all that can be well is well.
EPILOGUE
quote:
There is always another adventure off the horizon in the Lucayan. Surely, something great waits for you. After all, you've become a legend. In fact, it's likely you're one of the best-known pirates in all the written history of the Lucayan. And in her storytelling as well, judging by the way your name is spoken.
The name of Captain Deadshot Jarrow is sung and cheered, and people lift their mugs to you in taverns throughout the Lucayan. You are, they say, the Savior of San Alfonso, the one without whom the people of San Alfonso could not enjoy their continued freedom from Crown rule.
The Crown was most displeased that one of their primary agents turned out to be a spy for the Pirate King. And if they've gone after your fleet with some vigor since then… you've handled it. After all, there are very few pirates on the Lucayan who would refuse to come to your aid. They all know you.
As your star grows, so does the legend of San Alfonso. You suspect that someday, long after the Crown has fallen to another government, long after la Universidad de Cambiar has crumbled and faded into obscurity, the legend of the haven of San Alfonso will live on. And your name will live on with it.
And what of the rest of your life? Since you became a captain, you've managed to bring together 11 ships under your command, all of them bringing in their share of booty. It's a lot to support, but you're confident that you've got one of the strongest fleets in the Lucayan at your beck and call. And that's before you became Pirate King. With the Pirate King's ships under your command, it's a whole new ocean. You're very likely one of the richest pirates in the Lucayan, though pirates rarely give honest estimates of their cash on hand. Still, you've done well, and if you were the treasure-burying sort, you'd be considering where to hide a chest one of these days.
Along the way you've developed friendships, rivalries, alliances, and enemies. And things in the Lucayan are changing quickly. Caesar and Tinima couldn't be more proud to have been part of the crew that saved San Alfonso. In Caesar's case, you see a love for the port city you'd never realized. Whenever you dock, you see him getting further involved in the community, working with the town leaders,
1. "Don't tell me this means you're leaving my crew."
2. "What are you going to do with your land?"
3. I don't interfere, as long as he keeps to his responsibilities on ship.

-8 Relationship with Caesar
You let Caesar do what Caesar will do. It's none of your concern what he does in port, so long as it doesn't complicate his responsibilities on ship. And thus far, it hasn't; he remains the consummate first mate.
Tinima relishes in how her association with the ships that saved San Alfonso replaces the fear and mistrust that previously met her in port. She starts taking on students when you're in port, and she even asks to go visit her family's village when there's time.
"There's not much money to be made there," she says, "but I can promise some of the best coconut shrimp in the Lucayan."
1. "I'd be delighted to visit your village."
2. "I don't think we'll have time; but you can have leave."
3. I make no promises.
4. "Of course! You owe me a race!"

We lost relationship because he wanted to spend more time on land managing the port, but we told him he still had to be our first mate before anything else.
Anyway, let's have a 4. race.

+5 Relationship with Timona
She grins. "I'll even give you a head start."
"No cambiar," you say, setting the terms, and she puts her hands on her hips.
"What fun would that be?" she teases.
Anne has stopped her claims to the title of Pirate King, saying she abdicated to a worthy opponent. You can't quite tell if she means it or if she's saving face. Her fleet continues to grow, and her devotion to San Alfonso never falters. If you're a thorn in the side of the Crown, she's a dagger; but, of course, she plagues plenty of merchant ships as well. You don't think Anne will ever really change, no matter who is in charge of the Lucayan.
As for Joaquin, you're now and forever on opposite sides. His loyalty to the Crown is too strong; when you see him next, it's in Puerta Ballena. He's dressed in continental clothes, rather than as a sailor.
1. I avoid him.
2. I try to convince him to join my crew.
3. I threaten him to leave my fleet alone.

quote:
No sense causing trouble for either of you. For now, there's little else to tell. You and your ship may as well live and breathe together. She's your first thought in the morning and your last thought at night. Some may say you work too hard, but to you, it's not work. Your ship, and life on the Lucayan, riding the winds and waves, are your world. And for now, you're content.
And so you sail, the waves beneath your hull, the winds in your sails, the music of the islands drifting across your deck. You wouldn't have it any other way.
Would you?

Yup. That's particularly hilarious since goons voted for "Men or women — doesn't matter, so long as they're a bit of fun" when asked the question "What sort of lovers do you normally seek?", and then proceeded to turn down every subsequent opportunity to have fun.

Still can't help but chuckle that Spack ended up being a wizard in more than one sense of the word. Ah well, least they've got Ghost Grandma to keep 'em company while they sail the seas.
