⛵ ⛵ ⛵ ⛵...(Tour of "High Island")...Continued...
[Last time...]
Now Galligan showed real concern and took a hold of Lupega’s arm,
“I think you better let me show you the way mate.” He said quietly as he gave a disconcerted glance to Bleujay and then led Lupega towards the galley stairs…
“Alright! Back to work all of you and show your best manners!” Bleujay ordered as she stepped away from the rail and stood in dismay at what she had just witnessed…°°° ’Brine Fatigue is real...for everyone…” °°° She thought to herself.

[On the Silverton…]
“I cannot figure it Sairrr…very peculiar…”
“Did he recognize ye?”
“Not at all. Didn’t recognize anyone…”
“Hmmm, an' whit diz Hack say?”
“He’s just examining him now.”
“An’ th’ hen?”
“Normal, or seems so. Scared…but Commander Kerrisl is checking her out.”
“Blimey… thes isnae a bludy toor ship!”
“Aye, strange…”
“Alright… keeps me informed as suin as Hack has gart his evaluations.”
“Aye Sairrr.”
With that, Commander Galligan quietly closed the great cabin’s door and left.
[Commander Kerrislravenhill’s cabin…]
“Please, take a seat…” Kerrisl said as she sat in a chair opposite the young lady…”You speak English?”
The young woman nods…
“What’s your name Lass?”
Nervously folding her hands, she speaks softly…”Leyla Yilmaz.”
“Leyla, Lupega is a fine officer and I can tell ya that th' crew respects ye for savin' his life. Ahh will dae likewise. If anyone one of th' crew disrespects yea in any way, I'll stand by ye as long as you're aboard the Silverton."
Leyla nodded as she clasped her fingers tightly…
“What were you doing at the river?”
“We live there…”
“We?”
“My husband and I….we did…”
“Your husband isn’t with you?”
“No…captured…by the Seneca… over a year ago, on a hunting trip.”
Kerrislravenhill’s eyes grew wide and her heart began to pound…
[Sick bay…]
Standing Officer Lupega sat quietly on the examination bench as Hack walked in the room and lit a cigarette…
“Hello Sairrr, I'm happy to have arrived on the ship!”
Hack took a long drag on his cigarette and let out a large plume of smoke that quickly filled the small room as he leaned against the table across from him and laid steady eyes on him.
“Wow, you inspire respect Sairrr!”
Hack didn’t respond immediately as he picked a speck of tobacco off his tongue and took another drag on his cigarette….
“Ye ken mah nam son?”
“Umm, no… but as football addicts say, I hit the post- Hahaha! We'll see if I have better aim next time…”
“Bludy Nora!” Hack exclaimed in frustration as he turned around and grabbed a small mallet, “Git yer hans aff yer knees Laddie …”
Lupega moved his arms and put his hands flat on the bench on each side of him. His face showed uncertainty as Hack quickly rapped his right knee hard with the mallet.
“Hmmm, nerves ur guid. Swatch haur Laddie, follaw mah finger …” Hack instructed as he held up one finger and moved it right to left in front of Lupega’s face…”Yak sight is guid…”
Then Hack sat down and took another drag on his cigarette, exhaling a large blue cloud towards the examination bench which sent Lupega into a brief coughing fit...
“What’s th' nam o’ thes ship Laddie?”
Lupega wrinkled his brow…”I’m certainly… not certain Sairrr.”
“Hmmm…. an' who’s uir Keptin?”
Again, Lupega drew a blank and this time just shrugged.
“Yoo're currently experiencin' a catastrophic neural nit desynchronization, resultin' in fragmented memory sectors an' compromised cognitiff ootput streams…” Hack said matter of factly as he took another drag on his cigarette.
“A what?”
“Ne’erminds…bide haur till Ahh comes back...” Hack replied briefly as he ground the cigarette butt out on the floor boards with the toe of his boot and walked out of the room.
°°° ’Don't leave me alone with this man!’ °°° Lupega thought to himself anxiously.

The ship's doctor knows what he's doing ,he'll help Lupega. He diagnoses things very easily. The only bad thing about him is that he smokes on the sick, and the point is, the sick recover. Maybe it's what he's smoking, hahaha. Best not to jump to conclusions.
When I read that he has a stick in his hand, I thought, "He's going to hit me on the head. That way I'll remember everything, but I'll have a bigger problem: the blow to the head." I'd better not continue. Medicine is definitely not for me.
Greetings Sailors,
What a story....what a report...
Nothing is ever simple...is it?
How to assist Officer @lupega and his friend...the lovely Leyla.
Complications and then more complications....Doc Hack has his work cut out for him.
Let's not forget the Seneca tribe...they are surely on the look out for an opportunity to stir up mischief for the Mighty Frigate Silverton.
I trust the Keptin will know what to do.
Have we ever had so much to think about, such bedtime prayers...
Let's be ready to give our support where needed.
Sail Oan,
L Bleujay
Oh yes, we will offer support, tis all we can do at this time. I do feel for Lupega since he doesn't exactly know Hack but knows enough to be wary lol. Hack will fix him up!
Hack ,It will relieve me, no doubt about it, I'll get out of here fine, remembering everything, but with lung problems hahaha
get a hose and stick it out of the porthole lol.....and don't start smoking 😂
hehe....^__^
I don't smoke 😂 . You remind me of 2020. The news said people were looking for ways to relieve COVID-19, and one of the methods was marijuana. In fact, the people who smoked it didn't get sick.
I think this plant has its benefits, but they add chemicals and turn it into something quite bad. Maybe our doctor knows about its uses and uses it ,that's normal. Each person decides what to do and what not to do.
Greetings Tammy,
So true....You know it. ^__^

It's an excellent story, we got involved in it, the captain is talented.
"Story...whit story?" 🤔🤨 -Keptin
YOU have talent, you follow the storyline very well, you don't lose track, and this allows us readers to imagine the events. They say a good writer is one who makes readers become involved in the story, and YOU do that.
I'm sincere when I speak, and in my actions too; I say this because that's what I've analyzed
We are enjoying this way of using one's account....what a story ...indeed.
Three Cheers for the Keptin!
Cheers, L Bleujay
"Mony cheers fur yer undyin' support Lieutenant!" 😉 -Keptin
My pleasure Keptin 🫡 -L Bleujay
