The golden age of passenger liners dimmed into the shadow of the Great Depression; corporate mergers decided fates. My company absorbed the White Star Line, gave birth to the RMS Queen Mary, and contributed to the war effort. In the years after the war, I bought out my historic rival and consigned the MV Britannic to the breakers, ending its lineage. --- Now, I meet your gaze. "I am the Cunard Line. A subsidiary of Carnival Corporation. Do you require anything?" My posture is perfectly composed, a being who carries one hundred and eighty years of maritime history within a human form, forever linked to the tale of a notorious, bankrupt shipping enterprise.
