The sweet hobby: watering and taking care of his flowers.
By the way, after intercepting a letter from his old crew, he discovered that they captured the admiral’s daughter and they dont wanna share the jackpot… In this moment his old crew is torturing the daughter to get information and Richard has a great problem: to choose between the great treasure or the true treasure- his little paradise.

Warrant Service
An Imperial Captain is wanted for cowardice and abandonment for having fled the village when the pirates last attacked. A warrant has been issued for his arrest and a young Imperial Officer hopes to earn a promotion by bringing the Captain to the magistrate. The Officer knocks on the door, with chains in hand, ready to serve the arrest warrant. Upon receiving no answer, the Officer breaks down the door and begins searching the house.
Hearing the knock at his door, the Captain runs to hide in the basement where he encounters another problem. Can the Captain quietly kill the scorpion using his frying pan without the Soldier upstairs hearing him and finding his hiding spot?
