[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7207065, member: 20323"] Dressed in the black robes of Benedictines, Blaise and Etienne approach the gaol (jail), an octagonal wooden building built atop a stone foundation. The covered roof would provide an excellent place for a man with a rifle to pick off raiding parties – or fleeing prisoners – were it not for the construction having been halted due to a shortage of funds. Pirates, it would seem, had other ways to spend their wealth. Much of the old damage from past fighting on Nassau hasn't been repaired either, leaving scorch marks on several of the walls, and shrubs and palms overgrow the yard, providing sufficient cover if one wanted to approach unseen. The construction suggests that there are at least eight cells, and perhaps more down below in the basement – an older crude prison that may have been used before the English ever claimed Nassau. There are no sign of sentries on patrol outside, nor any foot traffic coming or going from the gaol.
