YAAARGH!
We've heard word o' a greedy injustice! A Claw who saw fit to skim the booty of fair whiskers such ye yourselves.
Ye poor whiskers suffering under the oppression of darrr Kingdom. Do the Claws thank ye? NO! Instead a certain tax collector saw fit to lie yer kind! He claimed the Whisker tax was 5 bits per tail per day! All while he was skimmed the extra 2 bits!
Our blood boils at the thought o' it. We showed him the error of his ways.
Now a new Claw is in charge of collecting yer taxes. This Claw is both more mate, understanding, and honourable! In exchange fer our assistance in his promotion he has agreed to command his ships to ignore us Humble Seafarers. He has also told his collectors to charge the proper 3 bits per Whisker per day!
It is a jolly day to be friends with us Pirates, wouldn't ye say!
Captain Dread
PS: Stop letting yer campfires die out, putting a new log on a burning fire tis a simple thing.
