June 1680 CE

De Grammont joins forces with Paine and an English privateer captain named William Wright in June of 1680 at Isla La Blanquill.

Together with fifty men, they successfully raid the town of Caracas, although it is defended by two thousand Spanish soldiers.

De Grammont is badly wounded by a sword, however, and returns to Las Aves to recover.
