Pirate Remains is a hand-crafted point of interest on the east side of the starting island in Windrose. It holds the Decrepit Chest whose Blurry Sketch triggers the Fifteen Men on a Dead Man's Chest side quest.
Location and Visuals
Pirate Remains sits in a shallow coastal area east of the player's initial shipwreck spawn. The POI is recognizable by a small boat and scattered skeletal debris. A Decrepit Chest sits in the center of the scene.

What Happens Next
Reading the Blurry Sketch in the Curios Tab starts the Fifteen Men on a Dead Man's Chest quest. The quest directs the player northwest across the starting island (avoiding the central Ancient Ruins) to a dirt patch flanked by four skeletons. Opening the buried chest there spawns four Drowned Sailor enemies as an ambush encounter.
Quest Rewards
5 Guineas
4 Silver Ingots
Small amount of XP and faction reputation
Strategy
Most players hit Pirate Remains within the first 45 minutes of starting a new character. Bring healing and a Shovel (pre-crafted from 3 Copper Ingots plus 10 Wood at the Workbench) to complete the dig portion. If you haven't crafted the Shovel yet, pick up the Blurry Sketch first and return later; the Decrepit Chest itself does not require the Shovel to open.
