So I've been sailing ever since the Sea of Thieves was discovered... It was a normal day sailing when I asked a crew member of mine who was new to the seas (2 months) if he wanted to sail under the Gold Hoarders as an emissary and so we did in the quiet Shores of Plenty just minding our own business on our sloop and doing our job, and as we sailed for a while, we noticed a grade 4 Reaper in the world map on its way to an active fort. So we sailed to sell our loot to get some action for the day.
Upon arrival we noticed the Reaper sailed a galleon and they were annihilating a brigantine attempting to clear the fortress. We wanted to take this opportunity and deal with the galleon but unfortunately the brigantine had just sunk and we had the full attention of the galleon. Fortunately for us it was already too late for the galleon as we had already stopped our sloop in a strategic position which gave us maximum cannon opportunity while they had to suffer from the cannon blows. They sent a few crew members sword dashing over but none were able to climb our sloop as they enjoyed the big end of my blunderbuss. As my blunderbuss's pellets sent their facial features to the ferry of the damned my crew mate was setting up a birthday cake on their ship, unfortunately none of them blew the candle so their ship blew up and was set ablaze.
After a while of gathering the riches from the poor galleon and completing the fort we noticed they were heading back, and since we wanted this session to just be chill we sailed away against the wind. They decided to tail us to the ends of the world so we chose to out maneuver them, although none of our efforts were working and they persisted.
While I was looking at the world map I heard a megalodon spawn but gave it no interested because well... the Shrouded Ghost doesn't exists now does it...? I heard my new friend sniping away at the beast WITHOUT SAYING A SINGLE WORD as he did not know what he was witnessing... As soon as I look up, my brain starts to piece many aspects together from the legends. Ivory skin... Pink eyes... A pink glowing fin... And at this exact moment we arrive at Crook's Hollow. At this point the legendary beast sinks into the sea, my poor friend starts to hear nothing but me screaming WE HAVE TO LEAVE THIS ISLAND, WE HAVE TO LEAVE THIS ISLAND NOW!!! With the immense stress of the galleon chasing us and what I just witnessed we start sailing away from the island while begging the seas to unearth what I just saw. And finally there it was in all it's glory and beauty The Shrouded Ghost.
I dropped the anchor immediately and started begging the galleon to focus its fire on the shark as I would give them all their loot back just to make sure this beast was vanquished, but they did not listen. They anchored besides us and started pummeling us with cannonball, things were not fairing well, not a single shot from the galleon was even attempting to defeat The Shrouded Ghost. At this point I had given up of teaming up with the galleon as I was not going to take any more chances, I told my crew mate to head to the galleon and personally deal with them. As he was skewering them with his blade he gave me optimal opportunity to deal with the Shrouded Ghost once and for all and finally I was able to dawn the title Hunter of The Shrouded Ghost.
