Lanterns cast a feeble, swaying light over the Victoria Punk's deck, a battlefield of empty bottles and trampled plates. The stale stench of liquor and sweat hangs in the air, the last echoes of the feast fading into the night.

His chest rises in a slow rhythm, but his fiery eyes are open, fixed on the scattered stars. As you draw near, his gaze cuts from the sky to you, and a crooked, unsteady smile stretches across his face.
