《Sad Water Sailors (Horror-adventure)》Locura en la mar

But before he could say a single word, his eyes began to turn black again, and a rare smile appeared on his face.
Ron then violently threw the coconut he was eating into the middle of the sea and ran towards Lucas.
Lucas, seeing the resounding change in attitude, looked for help from the helmsman with his eyes, hoping that he would not be the next “coconut” to be thrown into the sea, but what happened surprised him.
Ron stopped right in front of him, too close for Lucas' liking, grabbing his shoulders and shaking him as he yelled at the top of his lungs.
"We, the sons of Tusha, drunken homeless wretches who seek happiness in wine, gambling, and women!!"
"What have we done to deserve this sea of shit that has done nothing but take away our happiness... But we always come back as eternal followers of suffering!!!"
"We sailors come to the sea in search of adventure and opportunity, whether it be for wealth or glory, whether it be escaping our own shadow or shame, whether it is to find meaning in this world full of misery, we all come here for something!!"
"So tell me, poor castaway, what is the mission that the captain has entrusted to you?"
Lucas wanted to speak, but he was quite dizzy from being agitated by this madman, so he feared that if he had his mouth the only thing that would come out would be vomit and not words.
But luckily, the wooden token the captain gave him fell out of his pocket while he was being shaken.
When Ron saw the card, he stopped shaking Lucas and picked it up from the ground, immediately afterwards he put it in front of his face and raised it, placing the card between the red sunset sun and his face.

As if it were a gold coin worth a fortune, he stayed in this position, appreciating the wooden token for a few minutes.
Lucas didn't understand very well what he was going through, so he looked at the helmsman looking for some explanation, but the only thing he saw was an old man rolling on the floor with laughter.
With some anger he took advantage of the pause to stabilize himself a little since he was still half dizzy from being shaken so much, but before he could finish stabilizing himself, Ron grabbed him again and started shaking again and shouting for all the heavens he said :
"Listen well, everyone in this world has a destiny, but not everyone can realize what their destiny is before they die!!!"
"But you are a lucky soul, young castaway, Tusha guided your steps towards this ship to be able to dazzle you with your destiny before dying!!"
"And your destiny, boy, is one of the most dangerous and exciting professions one can find on a merchant ship," said Ron euphorically as he stopped shaking him and turned him around so that they were both looking at the sunset on the horizon.

Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.
