A small island on the southern coast of Albania
Hidden behind the small island were three battleships from the Ottoman Empire, waiting silently to launch an ambush.
A few weeks prior, the Ottomans had received confidential information from a spy about the Venetians purchasing a large number of battleships from the Indian subcontinent, but the later intelligence sent by the spy seemed a little ridiculous.
