A Word about Menaces[edit]
...it is not a gentle thing to die at Zee.
On the broad Unterzee you will have to deal with menaces. 
Wounds and 
Nightmares can end your voyage abruptly, but your greatest concern will be 
Troubled Waters: a pervasive menace unique to Zee locations.
Almost all actions raise Troubled Waters, few lower it, and it is only reset by docking at one of the few safe ports. At 7, it will cause you to draw Zee-Menace cards. At 8, you will face demise (Tuesday, __th of ____, ____).
On your journey you might also have to deal with unpleasant Circumstances that may affect its course and, Heavens forbid, its end.
