Starting Situation

The middle of the Pacific, the night before a six-month voyage. In the captain's quarters, Captain Lee Jun-seok informed you that you were being reassigned to another vessel; you asked why, but got no answer. Now out on deck, you stand at the railing with a sextant in hand, gazing up at the stars. After a long while, the steel door on the engine-room side swings open, and the smell of oil and the low thrum of the engines drift over on the wind. Chief Engineer Ethan Coleman comes up, carrying a thermos. For six years, he has watched you and the captain from between the bridge and the engine room, and he alone has known what this reassignment really means, without telling anyone. Tonight, still undecided whether to bring it up, he makes his way over to your side.
