The story of Beatrice Eugenie "Parley" Teague and Hernando Alvaro Ruy and how it came to the White Pearl |
A long time ago Beatrice Eugenie Parley Teague and Hernando Alvaro Ruy de Almagro met during a fight at sea that endend in |
victory of Beatrice. She nicked Hernando's ship without significant damage. |
His ship was built with the most expensive and long-lasting wood from Brazil, very strong and almost indestructible. |
Inside Hernando's Cabin she found a considerable amount of beautiful white pearls. |
Hernando was allowed to sign away his ship with everything on board while keeping his live by being banished on a |
desert island, together with his crew. |
(very unusual at that time) |
Hernando’s crew already was gone. After a few hours of parley in a secret cabin on board the contract was signed. |
This memorable moment of the deal was confirmed with a good sip of rum, but .......... |
Unfortunately it was heavily poisoned, leaving the two as petrified. Hernando probably shout "Arghhh" for the last time. |
The memorable moment of the deal between Beatrice Eugenie Parley and Hernando Alvaro Ruy |
as dicovered by the ship's boy a few months later |
A few months later, the ship's boy comes back on board, makes some light in all cabins |
and found these two at the memorable moment but in a very bad condition. |
He put them overboard, takes the contract and leave the ship. He leaves the pearls in the secret cabin |
On the back of the contract he made a map with the location of the ship to return later for the treasure ..... |
..... but he never returned to the ship. |
Much later, as an old man ashore he was drunk in a pub, babbling about his earlier adventures. |
And so it could happen that Captain Dark Jack T. - a pirate, relative of Beatrice and the rightful heir, |
got the contract, the ship and the treasure .......... for a bottle of rum. |
He found the ship and the treasure and called her "White Pearl” |
But was that really all ? |
Let's tell the whole story about Beatrice Eugenie Parley and Hernando Alvaro Ruy's real treasure … |
The WHITE PEARL has been sailing with pirates ever since! |
