Captain’s Log pirate date: 16th Windel 771 location 2º N of Chaos 6º W of Tumoilberg
Well, me hearties- let me introduce meself! I be Capt’n Clawgold the Conqueror of the seas. Me and me griffin pirate mates, Grapple –Iron, Blackheart, Gunwharfe Gertie and Spinnaker Sal have had some feather pluckin’ adventures over the past few centuries so I be in a prime spot for telling ye about the comings and goings in Thym.
And that’s not all! I know a thing or two about some of the characters in the tales that will fair make yeh hair curl ! And me philosophy for life might just be the tonic ye need to set ye right. If ye be interested read on!
Firstly, ye need to know me qualifications : two hundred years of pirating, first class!
A fine crew of griffins ,human cut throats and a goodly frigate, The Destiny
Teaching Thomas, The Sapphire Knight pirating skills[ a tricky task when the pupil be a prince with outdated ideals of honour!]
Rescuing Prince Justin of Nightingley from slavers when he was but a little scrap of a boy.
Adventures like the hunting of Cyclops; the pursuit of the gigantic Eye fish; the visit to the forbidden Isle of Sorcerons and the snatching of the Tingle’s Pearl with the help of me old mate Jewel Bone. And that’s just for starters![ most of these tales be told in The Bed of Blood. {coming soon]Mind, if ye want to hear about the tussle with the golden hydra you’ll have to wait till The Dark Sentinel!
Character warnings ; not much scares us griffins but sorcerons can be awkward! For starters if they catch us on the Forbidden Isle they despatch us and boil up our claws and beaks to make their potions- not great!
Or they tempt us with treasure to do foolhardy things like ride the sea stallions! Being pirates it’s hard to resist doing foolhardy things and even harder to ignore the chance to get rich quick!
Advice –don’t trust them, especially if they are greedy like Raheel! And never, never upset them!
Master Innunedus-watch him! You ain’t seen nothing yet! He’s a master spy!
