And what about pirates? After all, these are risky waters in dangerous times. Can these sheltered, naïve, soft-skinned landlubbers even survive such a hazardous voyage across the seas? There will certainly be no shortage of surprises, crises, danger, and adventure on this most decisive of journeys. And with so much at stake, will the neurotic and overanxious Nickolaus even succeed in holding himself together long enough to endure such a perilous expedition?
