The Diary Of A Pirate
This is the diary of Iril Giulia Elsi Jay
My name is Iril Giulia Elsi Jay. I am 14 years old. I am a CabinGirl on board the Ebony Streak.
I have two ragged light grey skirts, two wrinkly cream colored blouses, a black bandanna, a large leather belt, a ragged black blanket, (which serves as a shawl in the winter) a ragged grey pillow, this diary, a quill, a book about famous pirates, and a doll named Sapphire. You may think its silly that I have a doll, but she is special. She has a cool pirate costume with a real sharp sword. its way to tiny for me to use as a dagger though.
She is very special as she is all I have to remind me of my twin brother Iritz Giuan Eliai Jay. Before we were sent off to be cabingirls/boys he gave me Sapphire.
We were both orphans but we usually found some work to do. But then we ran off to be pirates.
I've never actually done any fighting unfortunatly. They always send us cabingirls out in a rowboat as soon as they see a enemy ship approaching. There are three other cabin girls on board. Rishia, Guiala, and Firis.
Firis is my mortal enemy, Guiala is only 8 and Rishia is my best friend. (Aside from Sapphire.) I've never seen the captain yet. We always get orders from the first mate. I've wondered for a while about who the Captain is but its best not to mention it. Everyone apparently lives in mortal fear of her for some reason. I've learned that its best not to ask. I have various duties every day. I often clean swords and sweep the floors. Occasionally I deliver messages to people and I often help serve the food. Life here is Ok. It could be cooler though. I'd really like to be in a battle someday. It would be really fun. I can just imagine what fun it must be!
Most of the older pirates have no use for me. All the cabin girls are to them is just here to help clean the ship. There are ten older pirates not including the captain and the 1st 2nd and 3rd mates. Hiesha is very grumpy, she is an excellent fighter but has Quite A Temper. And I mean that! Griol is rather stuck up, she is rather like Firis. I try to avoid them most of the time. Jia, Diao, Avirs, Finid, Gritsh, Siar, Idi, and Yido are all nice but they don’t tend to pay attention to me much. The third mate’s name is Uvir, she’s rather strict but she has her nice days. The second mate is Tils. Her real name is Tilishia, but we all call her Tils for short, She’s really kind and its rumored that she is the younger sister of the captain. The first mate we rarely see but apparently her name is Weisi, she seems to be an energetic sort of person and likes to demonstrate fighting to people when they aren’t doing it properly.
That’s all for now as I must go help the cook serve dinner.
