Left Standed

As we left Isthmus we came to the discovery that two of our vessels have been infested with all types of parasites that ate through the wooden hulls. It was decided to sail to the island Hispaniola, we hoped to reach the city of Santo Domingo before the ship sank underneath us. In February of 1502 our expedition was shortened and we fled to shore. Unfortunately the governor was not as friendly as we would have hoped for him to be. He accused Bastidas of trading illegally in the New World. He proceeded to confiscate what we had left of goods and money. They have left us stranded in the Americas and bankrupt. I don't know what we will do from now on.
