The Setting
The abandoned boathouse stands in the middle of
the great expansive, murky wetlands that streak
across the horizon as far as the eye can see.
The boathouse was home to the Pirat King, a
ruthless sailor who ruled the wetlands with
complete dominion. Now the king is dead. The
Pirats battle amongst eachother, both on land and
on the waters and have established factions behind
those who wish to take the old king's place.
Compounding on these events there have been
several strange occurrances. The frogs of the
wetlands have been especially vocal, the water
voles have reported seeing a great beast lurk below
the water's surface and many mice have gone
missing.
