It has been 15 min since I wake up from that headache. Initially thought maybe I have some internal head injury. But soon I dropped that thought.
Currently I have many mixed feeling as I can feel each and every place on this ship as if they are my body extension. I could feel the salty breeze from the sea and water hitting the hull of the ship. I tried to move the ship but for some reason I couldn’t.
After several attempt the ship started to move and to navigate it when I reached the Helm.
Another blue screen popup, but this time it was quite descriptive.

This ship is losing Health every min.
After moving for 30 min at a steady pace of 25 Knots. I could see a island around 30 km due east a big one that. While approaching toward the island I saw a massive Eagle almost the size of a car diving from a height of 400 meter directly toward the ship Beam.
with some difficulties using one of the Large AA gun I was able to kill it. The eagle fall on the ship deck near the front main cannon.
After approaching it I saw it up close it really was a giant eagle and it also got some Status.

What is it doing at the ocean then . Whatever fuck this.... it doesn''t matter to me.
After reaching the island I took the pistol from the captain''s cabin. No wait Correction my cabin. There is no response at the comms for 15 channels for almost an Hour now. I get to the Reconnaissance float plane and started the engine to take off . Seems like the luck is on my side everything looks good inside the plane. Using the sling shot the plane took off and now I could map the whole island from up here.
This island is have a area of around 23000Km<sup>2</sup>(twice the size of hawaii) toward the north I could see a settlement and a harbor but after getting close it turned out to be deserted. Toward South there was a dense forest with a dormant volcano. Now i know from where did that Eagle came from. The ocean has taken over from the east and formed a lagoon with good depth to Dock Iowa. which seem like a perfect place to dock toward the abandoned harbour.
Once I got back to the ship stated preparing for my decent to the uncharted land and look for supplies.
