What to do
Description
Hey, new guy, take a look at this. <The dwarf flips up his eyepatch to reveal a living, functional eyeball.> I don't wear this patch because of any lost eye. I wear it because this OTHER eye is so strong, the normal one was just weighin' it down. This eye's good for seein' all kinds of things, like those masked hooligans that follow us around. Fleet Master says that they've been spotted over on Jaguero Isle. Once you get there, fire this flare gun, and I'll help you spot 'em.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ol' Blasty
We've got some work to do. How much experience have you got with cannons? Hmm... really? Well, how about with ancient, fallin'-apart pirate cannons? We've got a few cannons updecks that work the old-fashioned way: you load one cannonball in at a time, aim, lock it into place, and fire.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Drive-By Piracy
Now that you know how to handle our cannons, it's time to hit some real targets! The Venture Company has found gold to the north of here... a rare type they call "Black Gold". More like a Black Spot if you ask me.
