Beta reader: thistlethief Main Characters: Israel Hands, Lucius Spriggs Other Characters: Fang, Ivan, Black Pete, Frenchie, The Swede, Buttons, Roach, Wee John, Jim Jimenez, Oluwande Boodhari, Edward Teach, Stede Bonnet Main Relationship(s): None Other Relationship(s): Ed/Stede, Lucius/Black Pete, Lucius/Fang, Jim/Oluwande Rating: Teen and Up Audiences Additional Tags: Hurt/Comfort, Canon-Typical Violence, Paladin Israel Hands, Unhealthy Relationships, Alternate Universe - Dungeons & Dragons, Alternate Universe - Fantasy, Israel Hands-Centric Warnings: N/A Summary: As long as Izzy has held a sword, he has wielded it for The Kraken. For Blackbeard. For Ed. But then he was kicked out of the party. Then he broke his oath. Then he got possessed by The Kraken. And then, worst of all, he was saved by that fucking poncy bard Stede fucking Bonnet. Actually, scratch that, the worst part was that the bastard didn't even have the decency to keep him kicked out. So now Izzy is still stuck there, with Stede Bonnet's pack of bards, all of which seem to be convinced that the best use of their time is babysitting him. If Izzy thought he had already lived through the worst week of his life, he hadn't seen anything yet. Wordcount: 10,086

Long ago, when they were young, Izzy and Ed swore that they would live and die together, that nothing would separate them, not even death. Ed may have broken that vow, and Izzy may be in his grave, but nothing will stop him from keeping faith. So when Ed dies in battle, alone, Izzy sets out to find him...
