Aim'Spirente is a document in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire. It is the lyrics to a sea shanty sung by sailors in the Deadfire.
Description[ | ]
Someone has scrawled the lyrics to a traditional sailor shanty on this ragged scrap of paper.
"It is a fine three-master thin like a bird.
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
Of Captain Parfitto, 's never said a hard word,
As we sail our troubles away.
Hold fast the helm, hold fast the wind.
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
Ondra's grace, or we'll all be skinned
As we sail down Deadfire way
We've gone away long, left our loves behind.
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
It caused me a sorrow most unkind.
While crossing down Deadfire way
They say in Deadfire the luminous grows
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
And so that's where our brave ship goes,
To make our fortunes one day.
The next day on sail we back with cheers,
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
On Spirento fair, we'll see our dears
And shower them with two months' pay!
Hold fast the course, hold fast the waves
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
If we don't wind up in salty graves
We'll come back to Spirento someday!
It is a fine three-master thin like a bird.
Heave-ho, Aim'Spirente!
Of Captain Parfitto, 's never said a hard word,
As we sail our troubles away.

Trivia[ | ]
- Captain Estulario Parfitto and the titular ship Aimo do Spirente will appear on the world map if the player's reputation with the Vailian Trading Company is -3 or worse.
- This document has a few of the passages out of order, and has a number of differences in comparison to the actual sung lyrics. It's unknown whether this was a mistake, was done for narrative effect, or if the lyrics were later changed to match the tempo of the song.
- Additionally, the last verse, "The next day on sail we back with cheers...", is omitted from the sung version, as is the repeated first verse for the outro.

Of Captain Parfitto, 's never said a hard word, | Oh Captain Parfitto's never said a hard word, |
As we sail our troubles away | As we sail all our troubles away. |
Hold fast the helm, hold fast the wind | Hold fast to the helm, hold fast to the wind. |
As we sail down Deadfire way | As we sail down the Deadfire way. |
We've gone away long, left our loves behind | We've gone a long way, left our loves behind. |
To make our fortunes one day | To make our fortunes one fine day. |
Hold fast the course, hold fast the waves | Hold fast to the course, hold fast to the waves |
