The Legend

In 1710, James Castaway, a young man from Europe, sets sail on the "Blessed Endeavor", facing the perils of the sea, the allure of distant lands, and the threat of pirates. His journey from the cold ports of Szczecin to the exotic islands of the South Pacific is marked by romance, survival, and a defining battle where he earns a scar and a legendary snaphaunce flintlock pistol he names "Mason", symbolizing his transformation and legacy as he settles in American Samoa, crafting firearms inspired by his cherished weapon.
