Zara Dredgesea had just returned from an evening gathering with several important Alpha Continental nobles, and she was far too exhausted to deal with any of the paperwork waiting on her desk.
Mentally exhausted, that was. Physically, she felt completely fine, and her Sovereign Level body was bursting with energy.

Zara dropped onto the couch in her office with a sigh as memories surfaced from her younger years, back when she had first taken to the seas as a pirate, raiding merchant ships and similar targets.
Back then, at the end of every successful raid, she would have everyone celebrate until dawn, marking their victory with loud revelry, sometimes even wasting a portion of their haul in drunken excitement.
