Whiskey Peak, the only town of Cactus Island, had only one routine.

If you see pirates, invite them in for a banquet, get them drunk, and then collect bounty heads. If they don 't have bounties, send them off to auctions or marine bases.

For years now, Igaram has been stationed in this very spot, sending off countless pirates onto a life of agony his conscience could never allow him to atone for.

(He does occasionally 'allow ' a few to escape, but to keep up the act, he must crush his own heart, and be the one that seals their fates more often than not.)

(Neither his hands nor the princess 's hands were clean anymore. He will bring this regret with him to the grave, for the sake of the kingdom.)

(It hurts, so much. But he will do this, because his princess is suffering even more.)
