Humans were the first race of the Sphere to master shipbuilding and begin expansion to other continents. Soon, demons joined them. In order to dominate the sea, Vagroth created separate units of pirates who were supposed to prevent people from moving on the water. The most famous of them was Solomitus Kahren, also known as Sol.
He was a loyal demon who fought fiercely against people. He sank hundreds of human ships, plundered dozens of camps. He was considered a real terror of the seas, until one day his luck changed.
Humans spread a rumor that a ship with precious stones and valuable tomes would soon leave for Erikuria. Sol did not think that this could be a trap, so he went for big loot.
And the ship really was. But it was a fast bait vessel that lured the pirate into a narrow strait. There, the humans began shelling Sol's ship with coastal guns. The pirates wanted to leave, but a huge ship blocked the way back.
The demon knew that the ship was going to the bottom, but its crew could still escape. He raised a magic shield, which allowed the demons to put on Neroda's air and go underwater on merkons. Sol himself accepted death with honor. His body was never found. Only his hat remained in memory of him.
