" The First Court promised to imprison her forever. With his death, Davy Jones was welcomed back into the dark embrace of the sea that he had been in love with, albeit only for a short period, as he mysteriously reappeared on land two decades later. And it was in that very battle that Davy Jones' heart was pierced and he died, finally free. Upon being freed, the enraged goddess Calypso, in her wrath, created a massive maelstrom, where a battle raged at the center of it. While the Brethren convened, Jones reunited with Calypso, who intended to be free and punish the Brethren, until realizing Jones' betrayal. With the Flying Dutchman under Beckett's control, Davy Jones would lead the EITC Armada in the fight against the Fourth Brethren Court. But it was in vain as Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company came into possession of Davy Jones' still-beating heart, forcing Jones and his crew to do his bidding. Several days later, in which Jones dealt with Bootstrap Bill's son Will Turner, the debt was ultimately settled with Jack and the Pearl being dragged to the depths by the Kraken. That debt would be settled thirteen years later, in which Jones sent Bootstrap Bill Turner to give Jack the Black Spot, which drew the Kraken. Those who wished to avoid death and final judgment would agree to serve Jones aboard his haunted vessel, eventually becoming a part of the ship itself, forever enslaved to its terrifying captain.Īt some point in time, Davy Jones would strike a bargain with Jack Sparrow to resurrect his beloved vessel the Wicked Wench, which he would rename as the Black Pearl, in return for a hundred years of servitude aboard the Dutchman. Jones also commanded the Kraken, an ancient and horrible squid-like beast of the sea, which brought the captain of the Dutchman ever more souls into joining his crew. As the legendary ruler of the ocean depths, Davy Jones preyed on wayward sailors lost at sea with the Flying Dutchman, now a cursed ghost ship. He became a nightmarish creature half human, half sea beast, a crab claw for an arm, and a beard made of octopus tentacles. He kept the key with him at all times and the location of the chest a closely guarded secret.Ībandoning his duty, Davy Jones then returned to the seven seas, only now sailors everywhere would fear him to the death, for Jones had turned fierce and cruel, with an insatiable taste for all things brutal. Soon Jones' guilt became so great, he carved out his own heart and locked it away in the Dead Man's Chest. Jones was the one who told the Brethren how to bind Calypso into human form he never stopped loving her, but the pain it caused him was too much to live with. So, when the First Brethren Court convened, Davy Jones plotted with them to tear the rule of the seas away from Calypso, in which the Brethren imprisoned her into the body of a mortal woman. But when Davy Jones came ashore after his ten year duty, he was forsaken by Calypso, who was nowhere to be found. Because of that love, Davy Jones agreed to set foot on land once every ten years, where Jones would be free to be with Calypso. He would be given the Flying Dutchman as well as the sacred task of ferrying souls who died at sea to the worlds beyond. In one particular legend, Davy Jones was a great sailor until he fell in love with the sea goddess Calypso. A fearsome captain, a ruthless and heartless beast, striking terror into the bravest of sailors as the devil of the deep, he became the stuff of various myths and legends of Pirate Lore, particularly relating to the Dutchman and Davy Jones' Locker. Once a man who "ran afoul of that which vexes all men," Jones became as much sea creature as he was human. I can offer you.an escape." ―Davy Jones ĭavy Jones was the ruler of the Seven Seas, a supernatural force condemned for eternity to captain the Flying Dutchman. " Do you fear death?
