Success

A fine trap

These things can leap. More to the point, they can leap over the rail, where you have men with nets, clubs and a lifeboat as an improvised cage. The beast is yours!

• You have moved to a new area: Your Cabin
•  You now have 1 x Plated Seal
•  In the Company of Monsters is increasing… (+1 CP)
•  You've gained 1 x A Hunter of Zee-Beasts
• Zailing... has been reset! A new leg on your journey, or an arrival at port? (Removes all Zailing...)
• Your 'Zailing to Destination:' Quality has gone!
• Your 'Zailing Route' Quality has gone! (hidden)
• Your 'Distance to Zail' Quality has gone! (hidden)
• 'In Pursuit of a Zee-Beast' has been reset: a conclusion, or a new beginning?

Failure

Nowhere to be seen

No – that's simply a clump of ice rolling over in the water. Onward, then.

•  Troubled Waters is increasing… (+1 CP)
