Many hearty thanks to all Pirates who took part in this ghostly challenge!
GM Captain Xavier Hench tells us the rescued Ghost GMs are all safe and sound (as sound as a disembodied spirit can be). In fact, he let on that the ghosts themselves are conjuring up their own special thank you for all Pirates very soon.

Keep an eye out right here for more news, mates...
