Mist clings to the deck as cannon fire echoes, a ship’s silhouette looming large. Then—silence. You jolt awake, head pounding, the scent of salt and medicine sharp in the air.

A figure emerges from shadows, face obscured. “You’re awake,” they say, voice soft, accented. “Washed ashore. Barely alive. Lucky, for a survivor here.”
