Part 1 Captain Squid’s voyageSailor’s songA long time ago sailor George Croly sang this song.“I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies, no sudden rending of the veil of clay, no angel messenger, no opening skies, but take the dimness of my soul away and teach my heart to cling.”Man and sonA young man is sitting under a coconut tree with his father on the shore of a tropical Caribbean island (14.37N 61.05W). Warm breezes blow across their faces as they stare at the azure blue ocean. The young man who is searching for answers to life asks his father about his adventures at sea. The father’s face, etched by years of experience on the sea, tells him about his adventures with Captain Squid. The young man asks his father, “Tell me tales of the sea Dad.” Dad said, “I will if you promise to sit still.” “I promise Dad now tell me all about your travels.” “I traveled on that ghost ship my son.” “What’s a ghost ship?” “It’s a ship few know about and others do not want to talk about. It’s a secret ship.” “Tell me all about the ghost ship Dad.” “OK, but you may not believe what I am about to tell you. Look out to sea my son. Can you see the ghost ship turning toward us?” “I can’t see it, Dad.” “Then be patient and listen well to what I say about that mysterious ship the SS Catastro.” “I will, I will,” said the boy. “Very well,” said his father. His eyes then grew intense: “It all started when Captain Squid welcomed passengers aboard the SS Catastro...............” Ghost shipCaptain Squid controls all information given to passengers but how will he use it? Who is the richest person on the cruise and who is most honest? There are many mysteries to solve on the ghost ship. Who suffers more rich or poor? Who can solve the problems they create? Decide which mysteries need solving. Which passengers are actual pirates? How did they get this way? Try to solve how people come to have the right to rule others. Who has power and who doesn’t? Solve these puzzles while on this cruise. There will be obstacles and diversions misdirecting you from finding out who is who. Steer the right course to find out who is real and who is faking. How long does civilization last after people take all they can from others without returning something of true value to people they have taken from? Are passengers on the ghost ship the last generation of civilized thought? The father warns his son of coming economic collapses. “Son, it's like mice that have nothing to do in a cage. They will get complacent and slowly stop doing anything. If their food is cut off they will eat each other. We should love each other because lack of love creates hate until nothing good is left. This is a dilemma on the ghost ship and is why the ghost ship is always returning to pick up new passengers.” Unknown destinationThe SS Catastro which is now in harbor is a ghost ship sailing to an unknown destination with a boatload of extremely rich people. Captain Squid is a goat, a stubborn goat, who directs the disguised luxury ship across the oceans escaping the chaos and revolts on land. They may or may not get to their destination with all their wealth packed on board. The sister ship will enter the harbor when SS Catastro departs with her passengers.Passengers on the ship are exposed by their actions and lifestyles. One crewman records their actions in a diary while Squid is in charge of the ship’s direction. Passengers talk about power and how it is applied. The voyage may seem strange but it is rooted in reality. The question arises what is the truth and how can we believe what others say? What are these passengers really up to as they travel the high seas? Does the Captain see the interplay which makes some very wealthy and others really poor? This is also the story of ghost ship secrets. A ghost ship is a ship.full of secrets and intrigue.
