The Morisco Corsairs of Algiers

Morisco refugees who once fished and farmed the coasts of Iberia now offer this realm something considerably more useful than their old trades: an intimate knowledge of the regional harbors, currents, and coastal defenses that our own corsair captains lack entirely. Whether we put that knowledge to use at sea or keep these families in the safer trades they already know is worth careful deliberation.
