On to The Shadowlands
As the chase began, the Thunder’s crew abandoned work on its aft deck and headed straight inside. The ship then moved faster through the icy waters, trying its best to escape. The Barker stayed close behind and soon found themselves in The Shadowlands, a vast and isolated stretch in the Antarctic region that housed one of the world’s most hostile waters. From this Banzare Bank stretch to the next major port was a good two weeks worth of journey, a fact that most captains would not even consider venturing into. Nonetheless, the pursuit was on.
