A cry went up from the visiting crew, and they scrambled back to their boat, leaving our steward with a hand still outstretched, and knocking the carpenter and second mate clean over the gunwale. The Eriphyle, seeming satisfied as the Calypso set sail, ceased the chase and slowed alongside the Haniver, her captain hailing us in a friendly manner.”

Brendan and Stoneworth went Overboard and are now both Weakened. The SS Eriphyle is in the area until the next log. A lone orca remains in the waters around the ship.
