A tired pidgeon lands on the deck, and is quickly brought before the captain. It carries a small parchment, which the captain removes and brings to his quarters. There he unfolds it, and makes use of his most powerful magnifying glass. It reads as follows, in tiny, yet elegant letters:
"Captain. We have reason to believe that prisoner code named "Odin" may attempt to escape and instigate a mutiny. We wish to inform you that should a mutiny occur on your ship, it will be considered breach of contract (paragraph 17, subsection c). Guard the prisoner well. He is more dangerous than he may seem. PS. We will bill you for the bird".
The letter is signed with a small hawk. The captain sighs. These guys see ghosts where there be none. No way no prisoner will ever escape on my ship! But If I must pay fer th' bird, at least I shall eat well fer lunch.
