Liszt was an extremely terrifying person.
Well-known fact.
In every place, it was always people of the same race, same nationality huddling together.
The island was no exception.
Powerful pirate groups tended to consist of fugitives from the same country or mixes from the same race.
Even the largest, top-tier pirate groups wouldn't have too many aliens; they all stayed within a manageable range.
Because of historical reasons, with too many wars and countless new grudges and old hatreds among different races, there tended to be considerable xenophobia—even if you became familiar with them, barriers still existed.
But Black Sail was utterly different; whether on the ship or island, it was a melange, a collection of all sorts with an extremely high degree of tolerance. It didn't matter where you were from, as long as you kept it real and could make money together, that was fine.
It was the only thing of its kind in Heaven Port.
Utterly counterintuitive.
