The captain's plan

Part V

The straight and narrow, I never much cared for that. Unless there's a challenge ahead. I need a thrill, this I know. The sea may enthral many a man, to me it's just waves. Wind and water, is all. I don't think any of the crew really appreciate how utterly predictable the sea is. Worse, foreseeable. It's just charts and stars, currents and clever insights. There isn’t much to it. In fact, it is harder to keep them in the dark than to find my way home. They think we're cursed. Please. It's just a tale I spin them and then I direct the helm to where my whim next takes me.
