Picture this, it's the 1400’s and a woman stands on the bridge of a great ship. There's a flurry of activity around her as ropes are tossed here and there and shouts of men fight the roar of the sea. She stands still and silent. Her Hijab wrapped elegantly around her head, pistol on her hip, her face defiant in the wind while her skirts billow around her. She is the unrivaled queen of pirates in the Mediterranean sea.
