Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-34263048-20180219032020

You were a deckhand on small merchant ship, and you were travelling far out in the frigid waters of the northern sea. one evening the ship was attacked by kraken, and you were one of the few that made in to lifeboats. In facet there was only two lifeboats on the ship, and you were alone on the lifeboat, and there was only 3 men out of 9 in the other boat. You get close to another boat as both boats have some emergency food and water, and in the end you have a lot better chance to be rescued if you stick together. How ever when you are trying to tie a line between the boats yuo see a massive tentacle raising from the sea, and soon the othe boat is gone, only to be plunging back to surface a minute later, but it's empty,

You gather whet little food an water there was to your boat, and try to figure out what is the best course of action. you knew that there wasnt enough time to send an SOS, and the old and weak radio on your ship probably wouldnt have even reached anyone, as you were using the perilous northern route which barely anyone uses, just to save some time and fuel. And the ship isn't expected to arrive to port until 6 days. You think that the best course of action is to head towards a huge landmass, it's too large to call an island, but too small to call a continet, and it's covered by snow and ice around the year. There is some small communitys living there. Althuogh while you can definitely find land, finding one of those communitys is rather hit or miss.

A day later you find land. Althuogh you dont see any communitys, and the small map you have doenst give you enough help that you could locate yuorself on it. therefore you just start following the coastline hoping that you find civilication until the lifeboat runs out of fuel. Later on that evening you see somethig on the shore, but it doesnt look like fishing village. When you come closer you relize that it's old abandoned military base, you had heard about these, they were abandoned 20 or so years ago after the cold war ended. You also had heard rumors that there was food, water, fuel and radios left behind in case of someone in distress would be stubling here. You decide to inspect are those rumors true, as you definitely are in distress, and while you do find some food and water, the radio is broken, and there definitely isnt any fuel here. You could try to get further down the coast, but yuo would most likely run out of fuel before finding any better place. but you cant really stay here either.

Suddenly you hear some noises outside, and as you go inspect the source you can see that the coast bit further away is covered in what seems to be selkies. You could go to them to ask help, but that might have some unwanted consiquenses.
