-> ''Just as quickly as it started then the fighting was all done\\
For the pirate fleet was shattered and the stranger's ship had won\\
Though we tried to call and thank her, not an answer could we draw\\
Then she dropped her shields and this is what we saw\\
There were thirty holes clear through her and a gash along one side\\
And we knew that when it happened, that no crew were left alive\\
For the markings all said Christian, deep inside us each one knew\\
'Twas the tomb of Jayme Dawson and his crew''

-> ''And now every night when a storm fills the sky\\
They say that a ghost ship sails in its eye\\
Fleet and swift is the Dark Lady\\
A ship strong and sound with a perilous crew\\
And high on the mast the skull and bones flew\\
While [[GhostPirate the Captain]] gazes out to sea''

->'''Captain Sean Murphy''': Ever hear of a ship called the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Celeste Mary Celeste?]] Twin-masted brigantine out of Charleston during the Civil War. She was bound for London with a cargo of cotton. Two months after she set sail, she was sighted by fishermen off Tripoli. She was doing 12 knots an hour in a stiff breeze. Something wasn't quite right. They didn't know what so they went onboard. You know what they found? Nothing. No passengers. No crew. No captain. No sign of distress. She traveled 4500 mlles across the ocean, past the Rock of Gibraltar and into the Mediterranean Sea at full sail. And nobody at the helm. What do you make of that?\\

->Behold the Ship of Fools. Floating play of dark absurdity. They carried a dread burden. They carried [[MysticalPlague the liquid dreams]] of [[EldritchAbomination the Sleepers]]. The first mate lost his mind first. [[SanitySlippage Everything else tumbled like dominoes]]. Shall we point out all the individual terrors, sweetling? The ragged nails - [[LaughingMad gurgling laughter]] - the [[EyeScream eyeless]] captain singing - the gnawing - the [[CouldntFindAPen red writing]] - the waking dreams, [[FlayingAlive the skinless strip dance]]. No. Let us sum up: And much of Madness, and more of Sin, and Horror the soul of the plot.
->A cargo ship bobs in Kaidan's harbour. There are no more screams, but the silence is scarred. What was its cargo? What incited the theatre of fools? Ask us, sweetling. Ask!

->The wind suddenly shifted to the north-east, and the remnant of the sea-fog melted in the blast; and then, ''mirabile dictu,'' between the piers, leaping from wave to wave as it rushed at headlong speed, swept the strange schooner before the blast, with all sail set, and gained the safety of the harbour. The searchlight followed her, and a shudder ran through all who saw her, for [[DeadGuyOnDisplay lashed to the helm was a corpse]], with drooping head, which swung horribly to and fro at each motion of the ship. No other form could be seen on deck at all. A great awe came on all as they realised that the ship, as if by a miracle, had found the harbour, unsteered save by the hand of a dead man!
