Oh, no, gangrene! Ack! Poor, poor Jip! This was my compromise with the muse, who wanted to kill him at first. :( There had to be a real cost to this.
I really liked the interaction between Norrington and Samuels I'm so glad. Dialogue has always been a challenge to me, and these two have some pretty heavy going to cover. I like your picture of Norrington as trapped. As Jack would say, he's trying his best to do what is right by himself, but his self is being torn by conflicting versions of right.
I'm glad you enjoyed those images of Norrington's psychomachia, Jip's loyalty and Samuels' insubordination and method of keeping his friend human.
Thank you so much for commenting on this and letting me know what you liked.
