Before Angelica Liwich gathered the kingdom under her stacked-heeled leather boot, the middle northwest half of Dregar belonged to the pirates. Hurm was a haven for buccaneer activity with hives of ne'er-do-wells clustered on the many rocky islands offshore. There was no law save what the individual made with the city of Wymere: the sole struggling lawful area.

When the skies darkened and Blood's forces withdrew, the pirate activity reached its peak. No shipping lane between Dregar and Mistone was safe. Desperation and hunger gave rise to brutal acts, so much so that even Lord Rael was moved to send some of the Seawatch armada to police his interests, which often became flotillas of tag-along merchant ships.
