You raised me, to respect the truth. To know it is the root of all virtue. I’m asking if you’re sending me away because you’re afraid someone might ask me what happened in this house last night and that I would tell them…A man and a woman rescued me, cared for me, delivered me home. Now one of them is dead, the other is about to be, and the only man who seems to me to have committed a crime in all this — still works for you.

What I should be doing: Vane’s profile. Or a new promo.
What I am actually doing: Playing with Vane and lighting to make a Black Sails psd for later editing projects.
We have a ship in our harbor, hidden, that my family could have taken if they wished – but my mother would not leave her friends to the revolutionaries, and my father would not abandon his people. Even enraged as they were, he believed in them to his very last.
