Sailing North
Exiting the cabin, the party finds that the scream has awakened most of the passagers on this deck and many are standing in their doorway. Crew members begin to emerge from the lower decks making a somewhat crowded press. Reaching the staircase, the party exits to the main deck to find a crowd of seamen and officers huddled around a form. Approaching the group the party can see what appears to be a manlike form laying on the deck head and arms at and awarkward angle and a liquid substance surronding it. One of the sailors leaves and begis to light more of the ship's laterns and soon a soft light throws back the darkness allowing the party to see. A young man, perhaps 16 or so is laying on the deck, his neck having been obivisouly snapped. His arma are also bent and broken but with an odd looking vertical cuts running the lenght of the arms exposing the bone.
