Below decks-
Hello? Can anyone hear me?
It could be worse. Much worse. There are dancing shadows, things still rattling and flailing in their lashings, water splashing underfoot, and the whole world keeps tilting crazily-
Is anyone there?
It could be worse. It could be dark as well. The crew down there realizes this, so the cold, dancing lights on the air are rather ignored in the rest of the chaos, except for the knowing it could be dark here, as well.
Please?
And it could be worse.
