Dawn Departure
The roosters crowed their morning ritual to the rising sun. Their song was our cue to get to work. By sunrise, the crew of the Manticore was ship-shape, alert and on-deck awaiting orders. Port Royal, Jamaica was the destination. The work we were to do was destined to be a bit more military than the exploratory duties I had done on my adventures to the east. Deadly pirates abound in the Carribean. My assignment as a privateer was/is to protect convoys and fight piracy. After loading as much provisions and munitions from various shops in Bexar, we finally leave the port of Antiquity and hunker down for a long journey southwest towards the New World... to high adventure in the Carribean.
