Galway, England 1702
The port of Galway, as a newly opened semi-military and semi-civilian integrated port, was bustling with activity. Although the local people found it odd that no battleship was docked in the harbour like it usually was, the liveliness and excitement of the port did not diminish in the slightest.
As a port most frequented by fishermen who ventured into the depths of the Celtic Sea and the English Channel, the entire harbour carried an air of simplicity and earthy freshness, utterly different from major ports like Bristol, Liverpool, or Edinburgh. Fishermen shouted and boasted about their catches, their voices rough with salt and pride, while small-time merchants haggled endlessly over prices, arguing over every single coin as if their lives depended on it.
