December 12, 1577

Plymouth, England


I feel honored by her majesty Queen Elizabeth and her wish for me to circumnavigate the globe, and raid the Spanish colonies. I have already raided the Spanish settlements before in the Spanish Main. Now I seek to find glory in entering the waters called the Pacific, raiding the Spanish of all they own and returning the stolen wealth home to England. My Ship, the Pelican, and the others will set sail tomorrow. The Elizabeth, Marigold, Swan and Christopher are fine ships, and shall serve me well. I wish to now say my good byes to my family, for I will not see them for some time now.
