Black Beard was the most notorious pirate this side of Europe. He’d plunder, kill, steal, do anything for money. And his crew was no different.

After a particularly rough day of pillaging, he came across an old man with a book and map. He killed the old geezer and took it. It told about mermaids and sirens. Black Beard scoffed. Seen those before.

He flipped through more pages. The book told about giant clams that birthed Pearl people. He raised a brow. Never heard of those before. But, he did know that Pearl were worth a pretty penny.

His crew and him set out, following the map. He soon found a tiny chunk of land where the Pearl People lived. The island was covered in clams. His crew jumped off the ship and immediately dismembered the clams, dragging the pretty people out of them. Black Beard walked over to an unopened one and tapped it with his boot. Surprisingly, it opened.
