th centuries the coastline of England and the English Channel were often a very dangerous place to be. At the time these waters were patrolled by vicious pirates who did not hesitate to plunder merchant vessels or kidnap hapless victims to sell into slavery. Citizens would fluctuate between hiding from the pirates and going out to salvage from ships that had wrecked on their shores, and it was often a perilous existence to live here. It was in this environment of the constant threat of danger, of citizens of sleepy seaside villages often cowering in their homes to avoid the wrath of the pirates, that a curious story would emerge, that of a demon pirate that one day made its way to a remote coastal village.
