Ah, the Damning Darling- Captain Karroway's most prized airship throughout all of Haethrone. Actually, it was his only airship. Mostly because, like all pirates to ever exist, he spent most of his questing money on the finest and darkest rums ever to be seen. His first mate, a valiant young boy by the name of Artirian O-Ren, warned him of their fleeting budget when a runaway princess decided to hire them. Kinner Katar was indeed royalty but she needed a compliant (and mostly drunk)crew. She soon led them to the darkest plot of land in the city of Traversthrone where raw information was nearly as valuable as clean water. Here, they would stumble upon something that far outweighed the importance of Kinner's own quest or Karroway's diminishing rum fund.

Robinson Crusoe is a novel by Daniel Defoe, first published on 25 April 1719. The first edition credited the work's protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author, leading many readers to believe he was a real person and the book a travelogue of true incidents. Epistolary, confessional, and didactic in form, the book is presented as an autobiography of the title character (whose birth name is Robinson Kreutznaer)-a castaway who spends twenty-eight years on a remote tropical desert island near Trinidad, encountering cannibals, captives, and mutineers, before ultimately being rescued.

"How did you find this place?" Zia asked the King, speaking for the first time since entering the tent. "I've been searching for the location of your Headquarters for months- years, really." Donathan admitted. "We only found it when we got wind that two new recruits would be coming here today. My men tailed them here this morning and sent for me as soon as they were certain of the location." The tent was silent. Finally Arch said thoughtfully, "You say you come to negotiate?" The King nodded. "Very well, then," Arch said, "I will oblige. If I do answer your plea, can I insure that this camp and all those who live in it will remain protected and untouched?" Donathan nodded thoughtfully. "Yes, I believe you can." "And," he went on, "can I trust that this place will remain secret to the outside world?" "My men are sworn into secrecy," the King assured him. Arch fell silent once again. This quiet seemed to last longer than all the others. Zia wanted to know what he would say, and His Highness and Jay appeared to be in the same boat. "Very well, then," Arch said, stretching forth his hand for the King to shake. "When shall we sort out the details?" Cover made by the incredibly talented @italychick
