The fog rolled in like the tail end of Miss Havisham's
dress, chocking the harbor in a grey mist, chilling the night’s air. Michael
stood on the deck of the ferry staring in awe at the creeping cloud. Although
strong drink stole his balance and slurred his speech, Michael's a man of the
sea. His skills were sure and his vision sharp as he navigated the Cape. A man both gifted and cursed, like his
forefathers, he saw what rose from the fog each night. The Leusden ran aground in 1738, yet her crew
still searches for their safe harbor.
