Based on historical fact and legend:
In 1715 Sam Bellamy also know as “Black Sam” and the “Prince of Pirates” left England and traveled to Cape Cod. There he met Goody “Sarah/Maria” (true name not known by historians) Hallett who became his true love. Her parents did not approve since he was a penniless sailor, so he embarked on his quest to become a rich man and return for his true love. He choose Piracy to gain his money.

Goody remained faithful to Sam and was exiled by her community for being in love with a pirate. She was known to go down to the shore every night watching and waiting patiently for his return.

In less than a year Sam Bellamy captured over 50 ships making him the wealthiest pirate in history. One of the ships caught was the Whydah. All men on board where given freedom and equal rights regardless of their place of origin. Also on board was the youngest pirate known named John King who was no more than 11 years old.

On April 26, 1717 Sam Bellamy headed to Cape Cod to return to Goody on the Whydah along with his crew of 146 men. In the dead of that night off the shores of Wellfleet, Ma the Whydah was caught in a violent Nor'easter and was thrown upon a shallow sandbar. The Whydah bell was rung in hopes that they would be heard and helped. All on board perished except for 2 men. Sam Bellamy's body was never found.

Legend has it that on the night of the storm Goody “watched from the dunes, hoping the Whydah would make it safely to shore. When it didn't, she lost her mind from grief and ran down to the beach. The next day she was found on the shore, screaming and wailing as she wandered through the wreckage and drowned corpses. Her ghost is still said to walk near Marconi Beach in Wellfleet, and her cries can be heard on dark stormy nights.”

Quests:
When maxed you look for Goody on the shores of Ravens Cove after killing a rage ghost. She is wondering and crying near the ship wreck still looking for her true love. She sends you on a quest to find him on “Purgatory Island”.

On the shores of the islands the graves of those lost at sea are found among the waves. You must find the grave of John King and read the inscription “Walk in my shoes”. You must go inland to find his lost shoe.

Along the way you fight against the forlorn souls that haunt the island.

You come across the Pirate Cemetery where you find his shoe that points in the direction of the Whydah bell.

You fight the boss of the island “Purgatory's Guardian”
before you can reach the bell.

If you succeed , Sam Bellamy will appear and will be grateful to return to Goody that he will give you treasure from the Whydah.

I apologize, this is over 400.
 
I just wanted to say a final thank you one more time. I've really enjoyed doing these contests and I hope you all have enjoyed participating as well.

We've had about 500 submissions to the different contests, and we were happy to give out 6 keys and 9 gold codes worth 20,000 gold each. That means for each contest you participated in, you had a 3% chance of winning a prize. Those are really good odds!

This wouldn't have been possible without a few people, so I just wanted to say thanks to all of the organizers, judges, and tlopo staff that helped with this. You guys rock! :D
