The Gulf of Aden is an unforgiving place, its populace a hard people and of them there is one man whom all fear and respect King Aden. Known as being ruthless and unforgiving yet fair in his dealings King Aden commands a Yemen based pirate group vying for control of the Gulf of Aden's principle criminal enterprise...piracy and ransom. In Aden's presence his subjects know who is in charge, without a direct spoken word. To be on an offending end of his glare means death.

Survival. Morality does not matter when your life is on the line. Adaeze ("Princess") learned this at an early age. Living by the codes of the streets, Aden found her rolling gamblers in back alley's of the roughest dens of Ceerigaabo. Always known to use a mix of sugar and spice to entice, Adaeze is a kiss you don't want to receive as it may be your last. She has been by King Aden's side and is treated as a daughter, however the close aid of a man of trusts no one always has to be keen with her wits and quick on her toes.
