How it begins
You are Captain Jean Luc-Warm of the Royal Navy cargo ship, HMS Challenged. You are carrying your homemade Captain's hat and stand in your quarters, furnished with a cupboard, a bed, a Kelly Brook poster and a window. It's day 3 of your first mission to deliver IKEA furniture to the Island of the Damned, but, y'know, you won your captaincy by winning an Adrift writing comp, your crew are idiots, you only really wanted the Captain's hat, and you'd much rather go back home to Piddlington upon Sea and start an lingerie shop on the internet.
So your real mission is to abandon ship.
