We are in Ireland. They are taking on coal and supplies. They are also doing some work on the front of the ship. On the outside of the ship on the bow. They are attaching a glass lens on the front of the ship. Near the top of the ship. Someone says that mr. Andrews wanted it. We go back on the boat and get ready for the next leg of the journey.
It's like 5 or 6 pm when we cast off. Once it becomes dark, we look to see if there is any light coming off the lens. Dwight tries to climb the rivets of the boat. We like -- tie a rope around him. Oh wait. Stop. Roll it back. He abandoned that idea.
Reg notices that he hasn't seen Dr. McKarn all day. Nor his wife. We try to like, get some info but don't get a ton. Reg doesn't find them in their room. He tries to get something going. PS the McKarns are in room 213.
I go with Miles and Dwight to the common area - where the drinks are.
The guys break into their room. They find them in the room. They are dead are bloody. We go back to our rooms to talk about strategy. We establish that it is foul play - knife - rather than otherworldly. We con the porter to bring them some wine, which finally reveals that they are dead. A porter goes rushing down to the McKarns room. Miles, Melvin, and Dwight go investigate. I hang back to reduce the number of people in the area. The room doesn't look trashed.
Dr McKarn worked for the London police and was investigating something going on it the ship. He was on the ship because there was some sort of ritual or underhanded going on. It felt sus. Suspected Arthur McPhearson. Suspected something being mounted. They want to get the captain involved and Mr. Andrews.
