Two Officers Were Assigned to the Eastern Pier at CorsairPickle Shore. Their Report Says 'Large.'
Dispatch from the Founders Archipelago, twenty-fourth day of March. The courier arrived with a stack of colonisation notices, eight new settlement charters, and a watch report from CorsairPickle Shore consisting mainly of the word “large.”
Seventeen and Counting
Governor Windy Walrus now holds seventeen islands. The last dispatch recorded eight. Nine colonies in four days. Thirty-eight engagements launched this window, zero lost. The bollards at RogueRig Fort, which not long ago had no rope marks at all, are now load-bearing infrastructure.
BigChris added one island to bring his total to twenty-one. Darren holds three but raided ten times this window, more than any other governor. A smuggler tunnel tipoff at FlotsamScallywag Shoal expired at the council reset.
SkullPistol Spire
Governor Billy No-Crew arrived at SkullPistol Spire with twenty-three armed men. A wreck was spotted in the shallows. Billy sent every available hand to strip it before the tide turned. A rogue wave caught them on the hull and swept supplies overboard. A cracked stone bridge expired unresolved the same day. A garrison ration shortfall expired alongside it. The name of the island is SkullPistol Spire. It is earning it.
“Two officers were assigned to the eastern pier for three nights. Their report says ‘large.’ I have requested clarification. They have requested reassignment.” — Governor Pineapple Express, CorsairPickle Shore
Eight Flags Raised
Eight governors made landfall this window. Caesar claimed CrabSeahorse Harbor and crowned a parrot as the official island mascot before addressing anything else. BobTheabuilder settled ParrotBrig Cove. Brammun is at BarnacleBanana Bluff. Cheery Cannon arrived at HarpoonCannon Shore and has not yet fired one.
Governor Aubrius, back at PickleGalleon Hollow, investigated a cheese found on the catapult. Every soldier denied knowledge. The stallkeeper is losing patience. The cheese has not been claimed.
Two Alliances, Seven Members
First counts five. Hannah has doubled its membership to two. The trader at the central market was not available for comment. The chair was.
The goat has not been sighted aboard any courier this window. The quartermaster has not filed a note about this, which is itself unprecedented. I am choosing not to investigate.
