[ Inhale. You got this, Mizuki. It's just like giving a report to the Doctor. Only, there's no team to back up whatever you may have left out... No pressure!
...Exhale. ]
To start, the information I'm fine with everyone knowing because I don't think it matters one way or another: We are stuck in... a bubble, for lack of a better term. The barrier that ends a few miles out from this ship... ends this space. There's no continuation of the sea. According to Jenny, it's... a void? Space? Something that threads between realities, where every moment "hangs like stars."
Next, the information I just want you to have to do with as you see fit: Jenny is very old, to start. Apparently, old enough to have been part of the whole "born from the first lightning in the sky," whatever that means? And she has two brothers. She cannot remember them, however. She believes they're still on this ship, potentially as ghosts? Unclear. The Captain apparently uses the... "ghosts" as a source of his magic?? And his magic is finite, meaning there are ways for us to wear it out.
This is where the tricky part comes in. I fear if we wear it out too much, we risk Jenny losing her brothers, but if we can somehow contain how much we try to make him use his magic, perhaps we can all come to our happy endings? ...I don't know. I'm not very good at solving things like that. But you're very smart, Miss Clarke, so maybe you have some ideas?
[ A beat. ]
Ah, one more thing. I asked her something we should expect to prepare ourselves for. She said, "Having to unanimously vote for who you are going to sacrifice. Including the sacrifice."
