Love because they're the most beautiful women on earth-and hate because they're absolutely deadly." ― John Myhre You might say that there's a love-hate relationship that the pirates have with the mermaids.
" Whitecap Bay is where mermaids have been known to gather for hundreds of years, thereby striking terror in the heart of all sailors and pirates. Shortly after the battle, Blackbeard's crewmen were able to capture a young mermaid that would later be named " Syrena". Jack Sparrow ran up to the top of the lighthouse and lights up the whale oil, causing the lighthouse to explode, scaring the mermaids and saving the remaining crew. However, the mermaids started using seaweed lassos to haul the pirates out of reach into the water. Blackbeard's crew attempt to lure the mermaids into the shallows, until Blackbeard himself used his sword to unleash Greek fire from the Queen Anne's Revenge on the mermaids, driving them to shore where the others were waiting with nets to capture them. A fierce battle breaks out between the mermaids and the pirates. The mermaids try to seduce the pirates, which ends with Tamara showing her true form to Scrum. Tamara continues singing Scrum's song, which attracts more mermaids to surround the longboat. Scrum would sing the sea shanty My Jolly Sailor Bold for an hour until Tamara appears. Scrum was forced to sing, by the zombie crewmen Gunner, to lure the mermaids out. In one longboat, Philip Swift, Scrum, Derrick, Purser, Ezekiel and the Cabin Boy were used as bait. Legend had it that mermaids were drawn to man-made light, so Salaman fixed the abandoned lighthouse where it could light up and aimed it on the longboats in the water, sent on a mission to lure a mermaid for her tears. Perfect for hunting a mermaid's tear." ― Angelica to Jack Sparrow ĭuring the quest for the Fountain of Youth, Blackbeard journeyed to Whitecap Bay with Jack Sparrow, Angelica and many other of his crewmen to capture a mermaid. " The old moon in the arms of the new one.
On the verge of luring a mermaid for her tears, a battle ensued as Blackbeard's crew found themselves surrounded by vengeful foes consumed with rage against mankind. Whitecap Bay was most notably visited as the beginning of the journey to find the Fountain of Youth, where Blackbeard and his crew engaged these denizens of the deep on a mermaid hunt. The remote lighthouse at Whitecap Bay served as a beacon, as man-made light could attract these sirens of the sea. Myths tell of mermaids lurking beneath the pale, foaming breakers, but few knew that these briny beauties were actually flesh-eating creatures. Doom awaited any misguided mariner who sought out these perilous waters, as the Bay was where mermaids have been known to gather for hundreds of years, thereby striking terror in the hearts of all sailors and pirates. Whitecap Bay, often stylized as White Cap Bay, was a large cove on a mysterious island. Mermaids, captain?" ― Hector Barbossa and Joshamee Gibbs "Say what robs you of your staunch heart Gibbs, or forever leave it to the wider fields of fancy." " Aye, Whitecap Bay! Every worthless seaman fears the name, and rightly so, though few know why or dare to ask."
