Pirates of the Caribbean: Find the Pieces

"This is either madness... or brilliance."
"It's remarkable how often those two traits coincide."
Set to begin production after Ballad of the Mighty I is complete.
==Prologue==
Can we ever truly have it all?
The Dread Sanguine and her motley crew of backstabbers, traitors, swashbucklers, and disgruntled ex-navy men set sail once again off the murky coast of Isla Perdida, wanting nothing more than to find what they so desired: endless wealth and fame. But today, their faces echoed a rhythm not of greed, but of namelessness. Strangers would momentarily feel like home to them, only to fade just as quickly. They had found pieces, yes. But the elaborate shape of the puzzle continued to elude them, just as it always had.
 
Sometimes, on the starry nights of the Caribbean as they sailed over its green sea, they thought they could just begin to make it out - had they found what they were looking for? And yet every night, without fail, it would reveal itself as a mere illusion, taunting them and feigning accomplishment. Now, all they could do - all any pirate could do is try to find their pieces and continue chasing yesterday. But all they ever had was the siren of tattered sails, always trying to catch up with the majestic and haunting nimble allure of their past.
Their captain drowned himself in his desolation as they did. He walked the open road of love and life, surviving if he could, bound with all the weight of the words he tried to say. And as he faced the sun, he cast no shadow.
