Ahoy,

Elias . . . after that . . . yesterday . . . he hasn’t spoken to anyone. He holed himself up in his cabin and hasn’t come out. Laroque is concerned. Well, face it, most of the crew are concerned about him. Expeditions have been postponed until further notice. My apologies. I’ll inform you if there is any change in his condition.

Signed,

Captain Davenport
