Leaving England
We begin to walk to our ship, with our loved ones behind us, crying and worried that we are leaving so soon. England has let us take on our jounary to see if we can bring back something new and more advanced then what we already have. As me and my crew aboard the ship, i see all our loved ones, everything we know, being left behind, for this trip. I will miss you, England! -

On The Sea
After being at sea for a few months, we lost some men and alot of us is sick. Ive been sea sick for days, and haven't got a taste of food either. The feeling of knowing my loved ones, worried if i even come back, is terrifying to me. I just hope they know that ill do anything to arrive back home safely. -

Another Bad Day at Sailing
We have seen and had pirates fire at our ship, they are also pirates following us. It has been hard to sleep at night, knowing at any moment we could be attacked, and the hard deck floor doesn't help either. They has been a short amount of food left, we need to find a place to stop and find something to eat. We have gone off route and missed our port we were suppose to land at. -

Landing At the Port
Landing at this port, we traded supplies and weapons. We got food in return, i havent ate in days. I lost one of my best friends, he told me if i survived he wants me to tell his family, that he loved them. I helped out moving the food onto the boat, we havent found anything that special to our use. -

Back on the Sea
We are back on the sea, still on this hard deck floor, trying to find a comfortable place to lay down. The water keeps splashing up on us, and making it impossible to go to sleep. I have noticed that the captain has been keeping food hidden for himself, i heard that some other voyagers are planning to get that food, and make him not be captain anymore. -

Port Number 3
We landed at the port, and threw some corpses in the water before getting off. We trade food we had from before and in return we got some fur for warmth. It has been cold up on the floor boards, so im happy we have something for warmth. We also got some drink containers so we have something on the boat. -

Port 4
We landed on the port, and traded some fur for more food. We got alot of food this time, the deal was way bigger. The fur is really valuable to this area. They are super happy and we have enough food, to make it back to England, with a full belly. -

Things Lighting Up
We have seen more pirate ships floating by, lighting up the night.
They have been shooting at us more often, and there seems to always be a ship following us. We just have been ingoring it because we are so close to home, and dont want to change that from happening, so we dont want no trouble. I hope i can get back to my family in time. -

Christmas Day Home Port 5
We Made It Home! We got attacked by some pirates before going into the port, but its fine because we made it! i jumped off the ship with pride, to see my family and be able to sleep at night. i ran into my house and hug my family, sat down and enjoy the best presant i could recieve, family.
