If you have received this letter, it means that you have distinguished yourself as a soldier of fortune to me and to the world. I have an offer for you, an offer that will change the world as we know it.
You've all heard the stories of the Lost Sea. For centuries, or perhaps for millennium, it was the center of the the world's trade, a hub of art, or science, and of philosophy. Even after all this time, it is said that the technology designed in the city of Cyrax is far beyond what we have today. Anyone who found the Lost Sea would become famous and rich beyond anything they ever would have ever thought possible. But that's folly, of course. How many people have searched for the Lost Sea? Hundreds, perhaps thousands. None have found it. Few have even returned.
This will soon change. I have acquired a map; a map that shows a sea that is not found on any other chart. At first, I dismissed it as a hoax. How many valiant explorers have been lead astray by false maps made to divert competition? But I did research, investing a sizable sum into discerning its authenticity, and I am beyond convinced that this chart leads to the Lost Sea. I propose that you and a crew I of my choosing will sail to the Lost Sea and bring back as much of the technology as you can fit on your vessel. I will reward all of you handsomely. All I ask is that you wait for one year to make your discovery public so that I may study the artifacts away from prying eyes. Details of the arrangement are enclosed within this letter. If you accept my proposal, board the ship The Windracer on August 17, 1683.
Wishing you success in all your journeys!

Basically, we are pirates. We sail ships. We steal. Sometimes we kill people. Right now, we've all been hired by a mysterious client that none of us have met to find the legendary Lost Sea and bring back ancient technology from Cyrax. You might have always been a pirate, maybe you were a normal sailor first, or maybe you were in the British navy. That doesn't matter anymore. We're all in the same boat now, so we're going to buckle some swashes, plunder some loot, and hopefully not get eaten by a kraken.
