Since their arrival in the new World, the East India Trading Company had been charting the territory and researching the most effective trade routes. Lord Cutler Beckett made it his duty to fill in the blank areas on the world map. Thomas Faye had obtained, by way of an expert Company cartographer, small reproductions of the large-scale world map created in Beckett's office. In the map's early stages, the New World was hardly recorded - like a great and wonderful beast emerging from a thick fog, ready and waiting to be tamed.
