For most who dwell among the Scharde Islands, the pirate’s life means freedom and a chance for wealth, at least for those who are sufficiently ruthless and driven.

She claims to know the sacrificial magics of the Satyxis—and the ships she claims certainly see their decks painted red with the blood of the fallen.
