Description

Can I tell you a story?

Joke (don’t ask him why his name is Joke) is the ruthless pirate captain of the finest sky ship in all the eight worlds. He tries to double cross the pirate queen and she sends him on a quest (call it exile if you want) to find the ninth world. He hopes he finds dragons out there, because he intends to tame one. He hopes the partner he’s been lumped with falls overboard. He hopes his ship’s shape changing figurehead turns into something other than a penguin, which rather spoils the effect of the majestic galleon cutting through the stars...

Will he get his heart’s desire?

I hope you enjoy the story. 

If you do, let me know! I'm thinking it might be fun to write another installment about space pirates and the search for dragons...

*update April 14, 2023* the space pirates have demanded another story - stay tuned for their next episode, out in a few months.
