The Red Glare navigated through the wide river besieged on all sides by massive sand dunes. The humid air of Oceanlandia had been replaced by the dry arid air of Seraphy, the desert continent on the East of Oceanlandia.
Onboard the Red Glare were Karma's sister Christine, Dwayne, Tony, Edgar, Bonnie, and Derek.
The ship rounded a curve and all on board were met with a sweet treat. Around the curve was a small city made of brick, stone and marble. All buildings were on the water and there was a dock with many pirate ships in it.
"It's beautiful." Christine said.
"What exactly is this place, Atlas?" Karma questioned.
Atlas shrugged.
"I don't know, I just got a message to come here." He replied.
They docked in the harbor and were instantly met with a familiar face. There standing on the dock was their former colleague One Eyed Owen.
"Owen, I haven't seen you in years. I thought you were dead." Atlas said.
"Oh no lad. After attacking that navy ship I had to go into hiding so I fled here." Owen replied.
Everyone disembarked the vessel and gazed upon the gorgeous city. The roads were paved with shining white marble stone unlike the unpaved streets of Derzy. Buildings were made of sturdy brick and mortar rather than rotting wood like in Derzy. This place was better than the pirate city in every way shape and form.
"Scarlett would love this place." Edgar commented.
# Central Palace
In the center of the town was a giant marble building with an enormous rotunda. Inside the building were tons of paintings and marble statues.
Everyone stood in the center of the rotunda as One Eyed Owen stood in the center of them.
"Friends, we have done here what we failed to do in Derzy. Here we have created a nice safe hideaway from the law. Most of it was funded by the Great Treasure convoy robbery." One Eyed Owen said.
Kalice, Moby Sly, Captain Tamos, and Captain Werz all chuckled to themselves.
"This city will always be open to anyone who flies the black flag of Sekivo." One Eyed Owen said.
# Ashland Castle
Sekivo looked at the ceremony through her Crystal ball. She could only smile.
