From the Journal of Captain N.V.A. Mayweather as dictated to his faithful scribe, Yonten:

Message:

(Scribe's Note: Every action I undertake is for the greater glory, prosperity, health and protection of the Captain and, to a lesser extent, the valiant crew of The Lady Catherine's Ever Changing Form. The Captain deserves the strongest companions to assist him in the discovery of a very fine hotel and a well-prepared feast. I will say I have some concerns about this Toppo fellow, who seems to depend upon the whims of outrageous fortune. His metal may require further scrutiny and, perhaps, testing...)

Yonten? What are you writing there? Could you fetch me a soupcon of marmalade relish and a freshly prepared scone?

Yours,
