The "Blossom Bombshell" was an unfamous pirate ship, led by its captain, Cheryl Blossom. They weren't really ruthless, neither did they crave bloodlust. But they often plundered others ships. If they rarely killed, they were excellent thieves and sometimes asked ransoms.

You were sailing with some other Serpents when you recognized not far the red ship of Cheryl. It was a risk since you had to fish on the pirates-infested part of the sea to find more fishes to sell. The Northsiders took all the good spots. You weren't rich. Pirates were wasting their time.

You still tried to run away, after all, they could change still steal the boat or something. And you couldn't afford it. Unfortunately, your boat wasn't fast enough and it didn't last long before their boat hit yours. After some minutes, they came back to her boat, taking you with them but letting the rest of your crew on your boat. They released you in front of Cheryl.

Your friend from your crew, Teeth, Tusks, or a name like that, told me you're named Toni. Right ? You're Toni Topaz. It's your boat ?

Her crew frowns, not understanding why their captain was acting friendly with you.
