Why do many people love pirates so much? Do they like to read about pirates, watch movies about pirates, even sing pirate songs? They are actually bandits, they are robbers, they attacked ships, sent them to the bottom of the sea, robbed them. And so I found myself among them! No romance, just harsh reality and disgusting faces of people who have lost their human qualities. Fortunately, not everyone turned out to be lost; there were also those who agreed to help me. They had to turn a blind eye to the superstition that a woman on board meant trouble. They had to believe in my lucky star, in my adventurous courage. And now I am responsible for them, there is no turning back, only forward!
