"Year 1690"
In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean a lone little dinging is lost at sea. The only passenger the little boat has is a young man. The young man is had escaped his ship that held his beloved parents. The young man was of a rich family decent. That is why his ship was attacked and that is why the young man took the little boat and escaped the the horror of his family being killed in front of his very eyes.
The young mans name is Ash. He is the age of 17 and this is his first time out to sea. On this very day his young man hood was stripped from him and he was forced to be a man he never wanted to be.
A few days later he is found off the coast of Spain as thin as a piece of wood barley alive. He was found by a group of pirates who nursed him back to health and trained him to kill and defend the pirate ship he now trapped on never to be loved by anyone again.
