The captain's cabin is a complete mess. There are multiple maps on the wall, pinned over one another, each with messy writing scrawled over it and multiple X marks in random places. Papers overflow off the desk and across the floor in waves, impeding the captain as he paces, muttering angrily. The bed is messy and unmade, giving the impression that the captain has spent the night tossing and turning. Random objects have been thrown about the room.

I am a servant in a large house. I clean dishes and help the rich people get dressed. I live under the house in a cozy little room and I have lots to eat. My job is pretty good.
Ah...but kind sir...this is the Captains cabin and he gets first priority.  My master is the Duke of SoinSo and he is friends of the Captain.  Mariner the Captain seems to be in trouble.  You may need to help him find the land that you are looking for. Have ye been at the grog, lad? And this early, yet! Don't ye remember the Cap'n had a wee accident while checking the condition of the starboard plank, and fell inta the briny deep?  No sir...you are mistaken...unless this is his ghost that is pacing and muttering in HIS cabin. I'm the Mate! After he fell, I became Captain! Um, isn't this a Captain's hat upon me head? So be it sir...Then this must be a ghost...I'm going to keep cleaning until the Duke tells me other wise.  Good luck with finding us land.  I'm getting a bit sea sick. Ach, I be feelin a bit queasy, meself...me memory seems to be a bit foggy, like the sea off the Isle of  Angus McGwee, which is where I think we be headed... Yes sir...whatever you say...I see some paper that need to be tidied over here. Yes, yes, tidy up, man! That's what I be sayin' all along! How can a man be expected to make sense of all this mess? And talk of ghosts! Now where's me compass? Maybe we shouldn'ae picked up that cargo of Dominican Rhum... Here sir...you dropped this...you may need it.  Ah, thank ye lad. And thgis crewman here, be he real? He seems quiet as a ghost...Have ye seen me grog?  No sir...I have seen no grog...I do see that the Captain has some wine over there on his wine shelf.  I'm going to make up the Captains bed now. Good, good...Yes, let's look at these maps, we must be close..I can smell the land..Er, have ye seen me compass, boy?
