Period Adventures
King's Crossing
This story takes place in the 1700's and follows the journey of Peter McDermott from Melrose Scotland, as he finds his way to Liverpool, where he joins Captain Kidd as a 'privateer' working for King James. At this point Captain Kidd was no longer a simple pirate, but instead was working to attack the enemies of King James, with the authorization of the king. Peter's exploits are well documented and we are exposed to his day to day adventures aboard ship, and in The New World. Cameo appearances include the Knights Templar, and the infamous Benjamin Franklin. Although this was the golden age of Pirates and Swashbucklers, this story leans towards a more historic perspective, which just happens to take place around the same time frame.
