The Yamasee quickly organize two war parties…

April 1715 CE

The Yamasee quickly organize two war parties of several hundred men, which sets out later in the day.

One war party attacks the settlements of Port Royal, but Seymour Burrough has managed to reach the plantation of John Barnwell and a general alarm has been raised.

By chance, a captured smuggler's ship is docked at Port Royal.

By the time the Yamasee arrive, several hundred settlers have found refuge on the ship, while many others have fled in canoes.
