The pirate ship, Persephone, and the trading ship, Elizabeth III, have been sighted out on open waters. The captains, Captain Gwen Larouge of the Persephone and Captain Mark Sampson of the Elizabeth III, seem to eye the other ship with a bit of worry in their minds and their hearts. Could the man that Gwen has been searching for all this time be aboard? Are the pirates after the mysterious relic stored deep in the cargo hold of the Elizabeth III? There is a bitter love story to be had as these ships are entwined, both in connectivity, and in the past of their captains.
These two ships take over the original Pirate Ship that was docked outside New Thalos. Yes, it does mess up the directions for Ancient Egypt and Crystal Tokyo. The Persephone is loaded with evil creatures, and the Elizabeth III is loaded with the opposite. The two global quests offered on both ships help to share the history the two have.
