Catalina Erantzo (Navigation L8, Combat L10 - Gunnery) is walking through Seville
searching for a friend (and comrade of hers). She sees him walking towards
headquarters. She questions the shipyard master, whom her comrade was talking to
before he left. It turns out that there may be some news about Catalina's brother
Michael and her fiance Hernan, who have been missing for several months at sea.
Catalina tracks down Emilio Sanude (Navigation L8, Combat L11 - Celestial
Navigation, Gunnery) in the headquarters. He says that there is news, but tells
Cat that she should hear it from their commander, Ezequiel.
She enters the room and reports for duty. It turns out that Ezequiel has news,
but it is not what Cat had hoped for. It turns out that Michael and Hernan's fleet
was attacked in the Carribean, and they were lost. Cat is devastated. Emilio offers
to take her to the cafe for some tea so they could talk.
You can re-enter and talk to Ezequiel, and pick up Michael's sabre (C rating). Not
a good weapon, but it's better than nothing.
After speaking to the commander, enter the cafe. Upon entering, Emilio overhears
two men sitting in the corner talking about a fleet that was attacked near in Central
America. Intrigued, he and Cat investigate.
It turns out the sailors have some interesting things to say. They say the fleet
was attacked, and that a red flag was found near the wreckage - the flag of the
Malta Knights, the private fleet that belongs to the Portuguese Duke, Franco. Cat
is convinced that that the Portuguese has killed her brother and beloved, and now
asks Ezequiel if she could seek out the perpetrators.
Ezequiel denies that request, passing it off as a crazy rumour. Cat is peeved,
leaves with Emilio and heads to the cafe with him, trying to come up with an alternate
plan.
They talk at the counter, and are overheard by a man in the corner. He is ashamed
at the cowardice of them; that they think one person is not enough to beat the Spanish.
Emilio scoffs at the "crazy philosopher" and goes to the dock with Catalina.
Cat asks Emilio to join her mission. He agrees, and they steal a ship. Sell the
cargo onboard (10 Gold bars), and set sail.
You'll encounter a Portuguese merchant fleet, led by Raphael Selran. He should
go down without a hitch - just keep 'rushing' him. Take one of his ships, and sell
it. Take any cargo he may have with and sell it as well.
Once you dock at a port to sell the stolen ship or goods, you will learn that the
Spanish is after you. So get ready for a fight. Repair, recruit, and reload the
ship and get ready for two battles.
Simply 'rush' the commodores of both fleets. If you want, stop at a nearby harbor
to recruit more men if you are low on sailors. After the second battle, the Spanish
will turn tail and sail away. The fleet has caught on fire! What luck! Emilio
sees a man floating in the water. He hauls him up to the deck and interrogates
him.
The man is the "crazy philosopher"! His name is Andreas Paella (Navigation L9,
Combat L15 - Gunnery). He is great at fighting, so get him a ship! Fight some
fleets, sell them, and get ships for Emilio and Andreas (I prefer either Flemish
Galleons or Xebecs at this point).
Once your Pirate fame has gone up a bit, enter a port. In the shipyard, you will
encounter a scurvy pirate tormenting a pair of sailors. Cat fends off the attacker,
Pirate Antonio Khan, and rescues the two men. One of the men is Joao Franco, her
nemesis! She is enraged, but she has to flee, as Ezequiel is after her. She decides
to settle the score with Joao later.
Increase your fame and wealth for little while by attacking Spanish, Pirate, and
Potuguese captains. After defeating some fleets, dock in any port. In the pub,
Cat will come across Bret Perot, a man who believes he knows where Joao is. He
will reveal the location of Joao. Go there and talk to the cafe owner.
If he says that he hasn't seen Joao (after being harassed by Andreas), come back
later, and question him again. He will then say he has seen him. Search every
building in that port for Joao. She wil come across Emilio and Andreas, strung
up in the Trader's Shop. They say that Joao's mate, "Monster Rocco", tied them
up. Go back to see Bret in the port where you met him.
After some harassment from Andreas, Bret Perot will say that he will tell them the
location if they carry out a task for a Portuguese nobleman. They must secretly
take a girl named Lucia (in Lisbon) to the Inn in Ceuta, southeast of Lisbon. She
is in the cafe.
Drop her off and see Perot in cafe. He says that Joao is in Alexandria. Sail there.
Otto Baynes shows up in Alexandria and tells Cat that she has been decevied into
kidnapping the girl for the evil Marquis Martinez of Portugal. Cat is furious,
and Otto tells her where Perot is headed - the Black Sea. Head northeast and sail
past Istanbul. Find Perot in that region. Whip him in a fight and he will say
that Lucia has been taken to the New World, and that the Neo-Atlantic armies will
conquer the world.
A mate will from Perot's ship will be found. He is hauled up and interrogated by
Emilio. He says that Joao has sailed for Massawa in the Middle East. Go after
him.
You may need to reduce the number of cannons on your ships if you want to sail there
without stopping to replenish your food and water. If not, just stop at ports every
now and then to restock. Buy some Balms in Bordeaux first - West Africa has fierce
storms!
Upon arriving in Massawa, Cat learns a great deal about a "Savior". It turns out
that this "Savior" person is Joao. She finds him at the harbor and challenges him
to a duel. Joao asks if he could fight the Turks (which are heading towards Massawa)
before he and Cat settle their score.
Pick a fight with any any Turkish fleet, and Joao will interrupt and assist. Finish
off the fleet and sell the stolen ships.
Dock after the battle, and head for the palace. Joao's bookkeeper Enrico questions
Cat about her motives. He says that the Francos sould not have killed her fiance
and brother because they (the Francos) did not have a fleet at that time. Italian
adventurer Pietro Conti confirms this and Cat lets them go.
Head back to Europe and increase your fame. Once it is high enough, stop at a port
and enter any building. A Turkish mercahnt named Ali Vezas tells her that Pietro
wants to speak with her in Lisbon.
She learns that Marquis Martiniez was behind the murders, and not the Francos as
she had first suspected. It is revealed that her brother and fiance were caught
in the middle of Martinez's plot, and that the dastardly Martinez is somewhere in
South America. Sail there and look for him.
Check EVERY single South American port for a sign of him. After investigating some
ports, there will be word of a fight going on in that port's cafe. Defeat the pirate
Rudolph in a duel and meet Joao in the harbor.
Sail up the Amazon with Joao and encounter Martinez's fleet. After one battle,
Martinez is killed, and Cat can now rest, knowing that the killer has been done
away with... for good.

I would personally like to thank Mr. Groells for all the hard work he has done in
his massive FAQ. It has helped clarify some vague details I wanted to put in my
guide, as well as providing some stats for several mates. I would also like to
thank him for including excerpts from my review for UW:NH. He also included three
excerpts from my review in his FAQ. I thank him for that, and I hope he continues
to add to his monster of an FAQ. Good job, Mike!
