Velasco

Velasco is a Spanish mayor general. He lives in Nueva granada. When he was still a young man, he was friends to a family that came from Santa Fé de Bogotá to Cartagena. They had a few monetary issues but were good people. The mother of the family proposed an marriage between him and her daughter, Carensa. Velasco agreed, their daughter was around his age. We'll behaved, good looking, Artistic, would make a great wife. He grew relatively close to her but she always seemed... Distant. Her father took her to a fishing trip for a few weeks. But they were never to be seen again, everyone who knew them said they were probably swallowed by sea beasts. And no one argued.

Twelve years later, he sees a familiar black pelt. He is glad to see carensa again. He and her mother invite her and her husband to dine and stay at their place, but soon after next morning, one of the children from the husband's past marriage. Screams they're pirates, the famous pirates of the red iris whom Velasco has heard so many stories about.

He now has to survive as a hostage while surrounded by all the sins he has taught to avoid.
