Everything is different.
We've fled our enemies once and for all by claiming death has caught up to us. But death has not caught up to us at all. Instead we turned cannons onto our own ship and set forth such a spectacular explosion that convinced an entire empire that we had perished.
I suppose the ones they were most concerned with were Krastus and Myself. I'm hardly a menace, but that's not something very convincing of people. Either way, Grampa's Revenge is no more, and all crew, as far as people are concerned, have passed from this cursed world.
The truth of the matter is much simpler. We have obtained a loan, under questionable circumstances, and gone to New Madrid to have the shipwrights there build us a new ship. We will have to do things differently on this new ship. Hopefully different enough so that our former selves aren't linked to this ship. That would be a disaster at this point.
We still have a very small crew that is loyal to us. Maybe we should reform our payment system. I will talk to Helene about this in the next few weeks... or months. We have a long wait until the ship is ready.
I have a dread feeling that the one thing that will not be forgiven or forgotten is the dark shadow beings that are against me... and likely are very upset at the method in which I broke my terms of their hell-written contract. But maybe fortune will favor me, for once in my life.
