Captain Fitzroy was seated behind his desk when the knock came at his cabin door. He uttered the command to enter and the Demeter's first-officer entered and shut the door behind himself.
There was silence for a moment and then Halldor Leifsson spoke: "Lord Frakka is now aboard and wishes to speak with you."
The sole illumination in the Captain's chamber was a brass and crystal lamp filled with whale oil that cast a circular glow over the sun darkened features of the firstmate and turned his red hair to flame.
