Practice countering and attacking.

While doing a rather short prologue, you will learn about the selected (not all of them!) elements needed to properly control your character. Move from your starting location, approach to the barricaded passage and press the jump key / button. After finding yourself out on the main deck, press the button displayed on the screen twice to do a dodge.

Draw out your sword and attack the Minion. Carefully read through the information appearing on the screen, showing you various tips, which will allow you to learn about the basics of parrying attacks, and throwing your own attacks (it can be a single attack, or a series of them). After defeating the Minion (you will earn 75 Glory Points for each and every one of them) run to the cannon located on the left side and press the action secondary weapon usage key / button (being pistol at the very moment).

Attack the monsters one after another, while training yourself in the art of melee fighting.

Attack the next Minion and, after eliminating him, wait for a cutscene to show on the screen. After finding yourself out on the deck of a neighboring ship, continue attacking its crew. In accordance with the game's suggestion, you should practice throwing out your stronger attacks now, which require you to hold a certain key / button for a while. Unfortunately, and quite obviously, this method is quite risky, as your attack can be interrupted. If it successfully lands, you will deal a lot more damage this way. Eliminate all the enemies located on the deck.

Try to dodge the enemies' attacks and help yourself with rum if you are taking a lot of damage.

At the very end of the prologue, you will encounter a Shadow Guardian. This foe is incomparably stronger than regular enemies you've faced before. Practice parrying attacks and dodging enemy attacks to the side. Attack the enemy whenever he misses his hits, continuously depriving him of his health. If you suffer major wounds, press the key / button responsible for selecting Rum from the quickbar. It will allow you to heal a part of your character's health bar. Defeating the Shadow Guardian (220 Glory Points) will end the prologue, which, as it appears, was only a nightmare.
