Interesting how you used the setting of the previous story but made the mood much more light-hearted. I wonder if this is taking place on New Tortuga, or if these scamps are just playing at being pirates while safe at home on the mainland?

I imagine this to take place in the slums below New Tortuga (seems like a perfect place for slums if you ask me). New Tortuga strikes me as the place where, as Obi-Wan Kenobi wisely put it, “You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.” Then again, slums within a Pirate Hive. Could breed some very interesting children…

I will add more to the story later. If any of you want to write the sequel, feel free!

I’ve decided that the children are in the “slums” section of New Tortuga. (I’m picturing New Tortuga as a city held aloft by thousands of Heliofrost-fueled decomissioned airships) Getting examined and passing the Captains’ Council (Their version of a mayor) is the best ticket out of the slums. The slums is where the lowest of the pirates live.
