Pirates on Europa Shard

Some time ago, Hawkeye Pike had received a message from a guy named Jackal Verilax. Jackal seemed to be the captain of a pirate crew (or rather Governor of Buccaneer's Den) on the Europa shard. Hawkeye had been looking for a decent pirate crew for a long time. He had joined the Brutal Buccaneers, a crew on Catskills, some time ago, but these mateys seemed to be hardly available. Since the United Pirates had disbanded, there was no real pirate crew to be found in Sosoria.
Hearing about Jackal's crew, the Pirates of Bucc's Den, lightened Hawkeye's spirit. Unfortunately the home of the crew was not the Catskills shard, so Hawkeye could pay them a visit only for a short time. And that's what he was be doing today. He met Jackal Verilax by the gate to Buccaneer's Den. Jackal lead him to his house on the north-eastern part of the pirate island.

Jackal's house, the Dead Man's Rest, was a place of pirate dreams! Hawkeye Pike immediately felt at home. The Dead Man's Rest had a living area, a bar and a secret cellar. Hawkeye had a long and interesting conversation with Jackal. The Governor was a good pirate with many ideas. But like all other pirate crews in Sosoria, he lacked of a good crew. His crew consisted of about 6 active members, which still was a lot more than the Brutal Buccaneers could offer.

After meeting a few pirate wenches, Jackal showed Hawkeye a huge pirate tavern near the south bridge to Vesper. This place was amazing, too! There was really a good foundation to build on. What Pike saw here on the Europa shard looked quite promising. He felt that all this pirate community needed was a nudge into the right direction, a few ideas, and some publicity. When Hawkeye Pike said good-bye to Jackal, he wondered what he could do in order to get back into real pirate business...
