I stood at the bow of the ship letting the spray wash over me as we plowed through the waves after the giant freighter with its ghastly cargo... Slaves.

"Tack hard to starboard" I shouted to Ravi a experienced sailor from ravka who had joined my crew after we had freed him from a slaving ship a year ago when I was desperate for more men.

"Yes ma'am" he shouted back and pulled down on the sails to catch the wind. We came up right next to the slow freighter and I checked that my knives are safely secured and my crew ready to go there rifles polished and loaded

"Boarding graples secured" a sailor shouted as he tied down the ropes of the graples securing us to the slavers ship. I read its name the blood wave a fitting name for a ship that had stolen many from there homes and made the sea run red with the blood of slaves.

"board her" I called to my men and we climbed up the ropes and onto the deck. Bullets flew past us as the slavers tried to repel us back from there ship as there greed over powred there caution. A man fell beside me blood seeping from a wound in his chest onto the deck. I knew that the only way to end this quickly before my men were over run was to kill the captain.

I ducked behind cover wishing as always to have jesper at my side laughing as he fired at the enemy and of course waylan lobbing grenades and grinning at jesper fighting the slavers. and I felt that familiar pang of loss as I thought of Matthias the freidjan. But I was startled out of these thoughts as a bullet missed my head by inches.

I then ran across the deck keeping to the shadows as I saw my crew taking down slavers left and right but not without losses and so much blood had now coverd the deck it looked like we were on a whaler. I shuddered at the thought.

I made it across the deck until I came across the captain a giant of a man with a hug red beard and red over coat carrying a whip and a pistol shooting at anyone he could see with deadly accuracy.

I snuck up behind him and whispered "I am the wraith that haunts the nightmares of slavers and may the saints have mercy on your soul."

"Who's there" he spun around but I was gone vanished over the rail. But to him it appears as if I had just disappeared into thin air "demon where are you" he roared spit flying as he cracked his whip.

"Right here" I whispered as I snuck up behind him and stabbed him through the heart with my knife named after the saint anila, the sunbringer marterd destroying the fold. And I would bring light to these slaves just like anilita brought light to ravka.

My men let up a great cheer and the slavers surrendered after seeing there cruel captain fall.

"Good work today my brave solider for today we have just saved 100 men women and children from the horrors of slavery something we have all felt. So today we have taken one step closer to a better world! A better life for all harmed by greed and tyranny! So rejoice!" I called out to my men as they let up a cheer across the deck and I turned to the hold full of slaves who are now no longer slaves.

I walked down the creaky stairs yet not making a sound so when I walked many jumped and looked at me in fear

"Who are you?" A young boy asked only to be frantically shushed by his mother.

I looked around at the people in ragged clothes but with a glimmer of hope in there eyes I smiled and said

"A friend"
