The Phantom Ship (1837)	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Phantom Ship is a supernatural and nautical novel of 42 chapters by Frederick Marryat. It was originally published several chapters at a time in The New Monthly Magazine and Humorist Volumes 49 to 56 from 1837 to 1839. Hereafter the collected chapters were put to print by E.L. Carey & A. Hart in 1839. The Phantom Ship is Marryat's take on the legend of the Flying Dutchman and to this day it's an unusual take because the story concerns itself not with Captain Vanderdecken, but with his son and his quest to save the souls aboard the Flying Dutchman. Despite Marryat's writing experience and the appeal of the legend itself, reception of The Phantom Ship has been lukewarm at best.Upon his mother's death, Philip Vanderdecken learns that he is the son of the doomed captain of the Flying Dutchman and potentially the only one who can set the phantom ship free. That same day, he meets Amine Poots whom he marries and who becomes his first companion. Philip takes up a career as seaman and makes several journeys to the East and one to the West, during which he encounters the phantom ship from time to time but makes no progress. Hounding him along the way is a dangerous entity named Schriften, whose motivations Philip can only guess, but whom is temporarily befriended by Amine. Philip furthermore picks up a close friendship with another seaman named Hermann Krantz, his eventual second companion. All four are on board of the Utrecht when it sinks. Schriften disappears. Amine is separated from Philip and makes her way to Tidore and then Goa. Philip and Krantz make it to Tidore too, but miss her by a few days. They follow her to Goa by peroqua, although Krantz doesn't make it that far. During the trip, he tells Philip about a curse that rests on him that will kill him soon. Krantz is proven correct when he's mauled by a tiger. Philip reaches Goa alone and initially can't find a trace of Amine. Meanwhile, the city is buzzing about the auto-da-fé that is to take place tomorrow, so Philip resolves to go watch it. It is there he reunites with Amine, minutes before she is to be burned at the stake for witchcraft and heresy. Philips descends into madness for a long time, coming out old and yet prematurely aged. With nothing left in life for him, his search for the Flying Dutchman is strengthened by his own desire for death. He meets Schriften one more time and declares that for the kindness he showed Amine, he forgives him for everything else. Schriften reveals himself to have been the pilot of the Flying Dutchman and killed by Philip's father. By forgiving him, Philip has risen above's Schriften's dying wish for vengeance, a secret requirement to ever reaching the Flying Dutchman. Philip boards the phantom ship and returns the relic upon which his father swore his oath to sail until the Day of Judgment. As the ghosts pass on and the ship crumbles into nothingness, Philip goes down with it, satisfied and looking forward to his reunion with Amine.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The Phantom Ship stands out amidst Marryat's oeuvre as one of his rare attempts at penning a supernatural tale and this unfamiliarity may be to blame for a slow start. The ghostly moments in the first twenty chapters barely distinguish the novel from Marryat's previous works and it isn't until Philip's fourth journey that headway is made, notwithstanding that the eponymous phantom ship itself remains an elusive story beat. In its stead, Marryat introduces other sources of the supernatural with their own merits. One storyline about a cursed treasure is among the earliest instances of buried treasure in fiction. Another curse included is the one carried by Krantz, which is expounded on in a backstory that makes up most of Chapter XXXIX. This backstory is a founding work to the Überwald setting and its white-furred female werewolf started a small trend in werewolf fiction. Under the name "The White Wolf of the Hartz Mountains", Chapter XXXIX has regularly been reprinted as a Short Story separate from The Phantom Ship.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Note: Tropes for "The White Wolf of the Hartz Mountains" that don't directly relate to the rest of The Phantom Ship are not included here.

She can't control what the dream is about, but can ensure that the dream is a moment of contact with higher powers so that mortals may take guidance from it.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_15aa2b3c	comment	The Confidant: For two years, Amine is Philip's sole confidant regarding the fate of his father and the quest to save his soul from eternal wandering. She advises and assists him well, but in light of the possibility that Philip might die on his journey the secret weighs heavy on her. When stricken with typhus and in a delirious state, she shares much of the secret with Father Seysen. He and Father Mathias convince Philip to give them the full details too to spare Amine and find help with the Lord's servants. They're well-meaning, but far less supportive of Philip's quest. About another two years later, Philip voluntarily shares his story with Krantz. Krantz returns the trust by telling of his own fate to one day be eaten by a forest animal, courtesy of his father marrying a werewolf. The two men therefore become each other's confidant's in which Krantz shows himself to be an ally as valuable as Amine and Philip gives purpose to Krantz's final days.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_15eebf59	comment	Scene of Wonder: Chapter XXII marks the encounter of the Utrecht with the Flying Dutchman. At first, the Utrecht fears it's going to be rammed in half by another normal ship, but at the moment of impact the other ship passes right through. The crew realizes they're dealing with the Flying Dutchman and reactions vary. Philip and Amine take the opportunity to look around the phantom ship, noting how little the phantom crew itself cares for the encounter, and for the first time since toddlerhood Philip beholds his father, who at that point is about the same age as he is. This scene marks a turning point in the narrative, because Philip won't see his father again until he's about double his age.

This could've been very boring or dark, were it not for the irreverent way the events are addressed. For instance, in regards to Spanish occupation of the Netherlands, there's this bit: "[Philip II of Spain] therefore took away from the Hollanders most of their liberties: to make amends, however, he gave them the Inquisition; but the Dutch grumbled, and Philip, to stop their grumbling, burnt a few of them."

After the robbers are dealt with, Philip opts to keep guard outside the Poots' home just to be safe. At dawn, Amine taps him on the shoulder, startling him and making him draw his gun as he turns around. Her response is "And that pistol was intended for me." Incidentally, Philip had just shortly before mused that he isn't as coolheaded as Amine.

The Vrow Katerina later burns down near False Bay, Barentz being the last to leave the ship and one of the few who survive the disaster. With no one to return to, he settles at Table Bay to stay as close to the Vrow Katerina as possible.

Along with everything else Schriften does, this seems like malice and sabotage. Schriften admits to the sabotage, but not the malice towards Philip. If he'd gotten the relic, Philip would not have been able to continue his quest and returned home, where he could've lived a blessed life due to his inheritance. Yet, Philip's benefit isn't a goal, just an approvable side-effect to the harm Schriften means to cause William Vanderdecken.

Many men die when the ship goes up in flames and sinks, while the women and children are put on a makeshift raft and the surviving men in lifeboats. Before reaching the coast, the raft falls apart and all on it drown. Horrible as the event is, it isn't presented as necessarily worse then everything else Philip experiences. Plenty of boats don't make it back to shore and having children aboard doesn't make a difference.

However, Amine refuses to grovel or embrace Catholicism, and reminds Father Mathias every time he talks to her that this is his fault and that he doesn't have a moral high ground. A desperate Father Mathias does convince the executioner to lessen Amine's suffering by throwing wet straw on the pile, the smoke from which knocks her out before the flames do their worst. Philip gets badly injured in the struggle to reach Amine, upon which Father Mathias dedicates himself to his recovery. However, grief-induced insanity delays Philip's return to society by decades and the priest perishes well before Philip is ready to leave Goa.

He'll remove the obstacle if he has to, but it'd be cleaner if the husband has drowned. Without Krantz's quick deductions and equally quick lies, Philip would have revealed his identity and gotten them both killed.

The Portuguese Commandant is a miniature tyrant who thinks commanding exclusively means shouting, threatening, and punishing. He gets his comeuppance when he's stabbed to death by his soldiers.

They don't look forward to what's going to happen to them, but they find peace in the certainty laid out before them. They even make it work in their favor. Krantz knows he'll be killed by a forest animal so he has to fear nothing else. Amine knows she'll die a miserable death, but it's her own choice for marrying Philip and once it nears she doesn't have to hold back or grovel for mercy because it won't matter (it would've, in fact, made her end worse). And Philip's acceptance of destiny allows him to empathize with Schriften, which proves necessary to reach the Flying Dutchman.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_3fe2b13f	comment	Ungrateful Bastard: Notwithstanding that he is fully on board with murdering Poots, robbing him, and abducting his daughter, one of the robbers in Chapter IV mentions he'd rather not be the one to kill Poots because it is only thanks to him that he's still alive. Philip owes his survival after the sinking of the Ter Schilling first to Johannes and then to the local people, who feed him, shelter him, fetch him a translator, and guide him to Table Bay. Perhaps not surprising for the time period, he only has bad things to say about the locals — their food, their hygiene, their appearance, their fashion sense, and so on. It's one continuing flow of absolutely unnecessary negativity. And if he were angry about them killing Johannes, that'd be one thing, but Philip doesn't care about that. Oh no, it's so much more relevant that, in his opinion, the local women are not as pretty as Amine. Despite Philip saving his life, money, and daughter a year ago, Mr. Poots still tries to poison him to get his fortune. Amine shows a before unseen narrow-mindedness when she thinks of the people of New Guinea, who saved her and kept her alive, in the same negative and condescending manners as her husband did in South Africa.

Catherine doesn't want Philip to go to sea or know about the contents of the locked-off room because either would put him in the path of the supernatural. The Spanish officers at St. Mary do not want the African man to join the crew of the Dort because he knows their plan and the actual value of the provisions the Dort has taken. They argue to Philip that he promised to let all the passengers go, and he retorts that if the man is a slave, as they say he is, he is property and not a passenger and thus doesn't fall under the promise to be let go. At that point, the officers can't keep the African man from leaving because as property Philip can take him on board, and as a passenger he's free to change ships.

The phantom ship will never again terrorize the seven seas. The sun is shining down on the calm ocean surface. The birds are gliding through the air and the fishes through the water. Philip Vanderdecken has just drowned after a miserable twenty to thirty years, at least half of his lifetime, and the memories of the deaths of Amine and Krantz are no less fresh than they were decades ago.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_44fc28e8	comment	Honor Before Reason: Justified. Amine refuses to confess to the Goa Inquisition and embrace Catholicism on principle that she nor her mother are evil and that should be enough. Her refusal can be linked back to her father, who converted to Islam solely to escape slavery. His religion always was nominal at best and didn't stop him from doing bad things, so Amine isn't going to dance to that tune herself. Unbeknownst to her, this spares her worse than burning at the upcoming auto-da-f&eacute, which would've happened even if she had cooperated.

Marryat frequently peppers the story with historical events, especially in Chapters VIII and XXXVI. Liberties are taken where it benefits the story. An example is the Dutch Protestant factory president whom Father Mathias claims to have singlehandedly caused the prosecution of (Catholic) Christians in Japan. It's hinted that he got killed by the Flying Dutchman specifically for this bloodshed. The real-life historical counterpart to this story beat seems to be events that took place in 1590-1620 and the factory president has traits of both Richard Cocks and William Adams.

In Chapter XXXV, she performs this ritual with the help of a 12-year old boy. This ritual is a reference to a (purported) magical practice in Cairo first mentioned in Noctes Ambrosiana No. LVII, published in August in 1831 in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine and collected in Volume XXX later that year. The invocation of Turshoon and Turyo-shoon suggests Marryat specifically referenced the ritual as mentioned in An Account of the Manners and Customs of the Modern Egyptians from 1836. In both accounts, the ritual's seer has to be a young Muslim boy, but in The Phantom Ship, only the part about being young seems to be required. After all, Amine is a girl and Pedro is a Catholic.

The time skip passes over Philip's dealings with grief-induced madness over his loss and the way it happened and the notion that to some extent Amine died because of him, reintroducing him to the audience as a prematurely aged wreck of a man whose only remaining desire is to finish his quest and then die.

The both are nothing but welcoming, while Father Mathias slips into being a poor guest. As a man of God in a Christian landscape, he can't let Amine perform witchcraft and barges into her room when there are signs of it. Amine doesn't throw him out for his trespassing, not to mention trying to control her in her own home, but she does protect herself by insinuating to him and the maid that he went into her room with lecherous intentions. The maid's gossiping provokes Father Mathias to leave Zeeland in shame but on his own accord. When about two years later Father Mathias hands Amine over to the Goa Inquisition, the memory of his hospitable stay at the Vanderdecken household is one of the reasons he regrets condemning her. Amine herself proves a poor guest in the house of the widow and her 12-year old son in Goa. She cajoles the boy into helping her out with a magic ritual when his mother is gone and this is what gets Father Mathias to prove she truly is practicing witchcraft. Amine argues that he's barging into her room again, but then there's also the boy seeking the safety of his mother's arms, so nothing is right here and Amine gets executed some months later.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_659ef759	comment	Implacable Man: Schriften drowned through Captain Vanderdecken's fault around the time the captain made his cursed oath to sail until the Day of Judgment if need be. The pilot was affected differently by it than the crew still up on the ship and rather than become part of the Flying Dutchman, Schriften's desire for revenge turned him into a ghost bound to thwart whoever attempt to free the Flying Dutchman. Philip first encounters him on the Ter Schilling, which he coaches into sinking at False Bay. He vanishes beneath the waves, but over a year later he shows up in Terneuzen. Again over a year later, Philip is captain of the Utrecht when his crew saves a lone man in a small boat. It's Schriften, who claims to be the only survivor of the ship he was on. Later on, the Utrecht sinks too and Schriften antagonizes Philip so that he throws the pilot into the ocean's water and sees him go down. Then he shows up at Ternate, creepily jovial as ever. Philip loses sight of him at Tidore, but when he and Krantz have convinced the Commandant there of some fake identities that'll get them easy passage, Schriften appears in the fort and nonchalantly reveals who they truly are. He disappears just as mysteriously as he walked in. Decades pass before Schriften and Philip meet again aboard the Nostra Señora da Monte. Schriften gets the both of them banished into a lifeboat and he tries once more to goad Philip into throwing him overboard. Philip refuses and, upon some musings, declares that he forgives Schriften. This, finally, defeats the revenge-powered pilot.

By the time they meet, the crews of the five ships making up Rymelandt's fleet are all dying from scurvy. Even though scurvy is easily cured, Rymelandt refuses to stop for fresh supplies. In fact, when Commodore Avenhorn proposes a solution, Rymelandt specifically rejects it because he won't let a subordinate do a better job than he does. Avenhorn temporarily leaves the fleet to get his crew supplies and save their lives, upon which Rymelandt immediately puts Avenhorn's solution into effect now that he can take credit for it. Upon rejoining, Rymelandt condemns Avenhorn for mutiny and abandons him on an uninhabited island to die. Because Philip defends Avenhorn, Rymelandt seeks an excuse to take him down too and gives Philip the responsibility to guide the Lion and the Dort safely along the coast. They're tricked by the Flying Dutchman to run ashore and Philip sends Lieutenant Vander Hagen to Rymelandt to report. The admiral oversteps his authority by hanging Vander Hagen without trial and he would've hanged Philip if Vander Hagen's hanging wouldn't have led to subordination. Rymelandt finally meets his end at the hands of Avenhorn, allowing the remaining crewmembers to join under Philip's command.

This isn't the idiot moment. Her emotions are running high and Pedro isn't a credible witness on his own. The idiot moment comes when Pedro, who was deeply disturbed by Amine's magic and begging her to stop, asks her to do it again shortly after. Not for a moment does it occur to her that this is a trap.

Amine, aware that Philip's undead father visited his mother two decades ago, warmly greets what she thinks is her husband's ghost. Philips awkwardly has to explain he's still alive.

Not only is it his obligation as a good Catholic, but a year or so prior Amine had humiliated him by insinuating that he had unpriestly intentions towards her to conceal her witchcraft in Terneuzen. Then, the vindication makes way for memories of the hospitality he enjoyed at the Vanderdecken household, of how he owes Philip a life debt, of how Amine's witchcraft was performed only to benefit her beloved husband, and of the simple fact that Amine is a good person with bravery to spare, kindness to share, and moral standards few can match. Soon enough, he recognizes he made a mistake with grave consequences.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_ad1db87c	comment	Oh, Crap!: Early in Chapter XV, Amine and Philip have been enjoying marital bliss day to day, patiently waiting if ever a sign comes for Philip to return to sea. While out for a walk, Philip is tapped on his shoulder and the cold of it is enough for him to know who it is: creepy Schriften, who by all accounts drowned over a year prior at False Bay. Unsurprisingly, he brings a letter summoning Philip to sea. By this point, Philip and Amine are ready to admit to themselves that Schriften isn't human and a worrisome enemy. In Chapter XXXII, Krantz and Philip have assured their safety and passage to the main land by lying about who they are and how they arrived at Tidore. The most important part is that the Commandant doesn't find out Philip is Amine's husband, because he wants to marry her himself and is the sole authority on Tidore. Everything is going well, but the moment a guard announces that a Dutch sailor has arrived and wants an audience, Krantz and Philip know the gig is up. It is indeed Schriften, who with malicious glee greets them by their true names. Inverted in Chapter XXXIX. Philip, fresh off the boat in Goa, thinks he sees Father Mathias and goes to greet him, but the priest covers his head and walks away. Philip thinks he's mistaken, but the truth is that was Father Mathias and he wasn't at all prepared to bump into Philip, whose wife is going to be burned at the stake tomorrow due to the priest's doing.

Its followers aren't judged as harshly, but only so as to emphasize the damaging influence of Catholicism. Father Mathias is a good man, but his faith makes him hostile towards Amine and the one to turn her over to the Goa Inquisition. The nuns at the Ursuline convent are perverse and immoral, but also only innocent maidens put there for the reputation of their families. Good seamen are turned into cowards who can only pray when the seas get rough and the only reason they listen to Amine's advice is because they think she's a kindred Catholic. Even Catholic children will trick you if you give them a chance. And then there's the Goa Inquisition, which cruelty, greed, deceit, bigotry, and selfishness oppresses the region and gets a whole chapter dedicated to its workings.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_b5171e10	comment	Tragic Villain: Philip is convinced that Schriften doesn't voluntarily make things difficult for him and the personality change Schriften undergoes once Philip forgives him does seem to corroborate that. If so, Schriften's desire for revenge at the time of his death wasn't just granted by Captain Vanderdecken's oath but enforced by it. It means that Schriften has no real choice in the harm he causes Philip and others, because that's what he has to do to make saving the Flying Dutchman a genuine sacrifice on the part of the savior. It also suggests that Amine's friendship draws out some of his true self and that makes his attempt to save her from a painful death all the more an act of desperation. Arguably, Father Mathias is to Amine what Schriften is to Philip. It's outright stated that Father Mathias is a good man, but misguided due to his Catholic devotion. That he hands over Amine to the Goa Inquisition to be burned at the stake is a consequence of both his religious obligation and emotional state, and it's a consequence he spends the rest of his life seeking to make amends for.

He concludes that whatever their destinies have to be, long ago Schriften stepped out of his role to give Amine a choice as to her fate, and for that Philip is grateful and forgives him all else. By forgiving his enemy, "the highest attribute of Christianity", Philip breaks through Schriften's claim to vengeance, which is the secret pre-requisite to freeing the Flying Dutchman. Schriften declares himself a friend now and fades away.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_c2e295cd	comment	Curse: There's a total of four in the course of the novel, most of them related to an oath. There's, of course, Captain William Vanderdecken of the Flying Dutchman. After nine weeks of trying to get around the Cape, he accidentally but through his own making kills his pilot, Schriften, and swears that he'll conquer the Cape even if he has to sail until the Day of Judgment. The Amsterdammer is lost in the storm and it and its crew can't pass on due to Vanderdecken's oath. A way out is granted if Vanderdecken's son is willing to give his life to return the fragment of the Holy Cross upon which Vanderdecken swore, a feat which is accomplished about fifty years later. Commodore Avenhorn is officially punished for desertation but really for being a better leader than Admiral Rymelandt. Avenhorn is to be left to die of starvation along the uninhabited coast of the Strait of Magellan. He accepts his fate, but prophesizes that he won't die alone and, in fact, he and the admiral shall lie side by side. Indeed, intervention by the Flying Dutchman causes the Lion to run aground within sight of Avenhorn. Many of its crew die from exposure, intoxication, or accidents while exploring. The admiral is found dead grappled together with the commodore, whom the survivors reckon walked over and ambushed the admiral. In the struggle, the two fell and plunged to their deaths on the rocks below. Hermann Krantz's father remarries after murdering his first wife and makes a wedding vow to protect his new wife lest he and his children be hunted and devoured by the beasts of the forest. Said new wife turns out to be a werewolf and kills two of the three children. Mr. Krantz kills her for it, thereby activating the debt of his vow. He is spared insofar that he dies from fever some months later, and Hermann Krantz avoids his fate for many years by becoming a seaman. Yet in the end, he's killed by a tiger in Indonesia. The money aboard the Utrecht either naturally becomes cursed or the fact that the ghostly Flying Dutchman sped right through the other ship did something with it. In any case, the moment the crew of the Utrecht claims it because the ship is going down, it plays on their greed. Between the survivors getting in the lifeboats and reaching the small Indonesian isle, their numbers go down from 86 to 15 because of the money. Once at the isle, the crew becomes truly obsessed and in a series of events murders each other until only Philip and Krantz are left. They bury the treasure to be picked up by the Company later, but due to circumstances have to return with several Portuguese soldiers. Despite earlier camaraderie, the moment the money is dug up the murdering recommences. Philip is so fed up that he dubs the place the Accursed Isle.

Or rather, Amine's mother had the rituals, but she's taught Amine too little about them before she passed away. Schriften can see the possible paths of the future due to being undead.

After the Spanish pilot murders the African man that saved the crew of the Dort from his sabotage, Philip gives the crew the decision what to do with the victim and with the murderer. The crew ties the pilot to the African man's corpse and plunges them into the sea. Averted. Amine wants to rat out Father Mathias to the Goa Inquisition after he got her incarcerated by them. She's ready to tell of his approval of Philip's quest, which the Inquisition would see as the devil's work, but holds her tongue when she realizes that revealing all that would also endanger Philip.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_cd7ef676	comment	Seen It All: The Poots Family has been through some stuff, but where it did damage to her parents, 17-year old Amine came out levelheaded, observant, and not easily impressed. For her, it started when her family had to leave everything behind and flee when her father failed to save the son of a bey. They lived for a while with the Bedouins, due to which they witnessed severe violence, before word came to them that the bey was dead and Mr. Poots could return to Cairo. He became wealthy again, drawing the ill-intended attention of the new bey, forcing them to flee to Spain. It's implied the same story of gaining and losing wealth occurred again in Spain, leading the family to try again in Middelburg for a year. Presumably, they left because of how the city was affected by the First Anglo-Dutch War and relocated to Terneuzen. Amine's mother died shortly after, just short of two years ago.

His son-in-law falls lightly ill and Mr. Poots hands Amine a cure to be mixed with warm wine. She doesn't trust the way the mix looks and pours Philip another cup. Her father personally feeds it to Philip and then retreats to let the poison do its work. What remorse he has he seeks to soften with alcohol and unbeknownst to him he drinks from the poisoned cup. He dies as a result. In Chapter XXIII, the part of the crew in the lifeboats leaves those on the raft to be murdered by pirates while they speed out of there. However, the pirates reason that those in the lifeboats wouldn't leave without whatever valuables there may be to be had and so ignore the raft to chase the lifeboats. Those in the lifeboats get slaughtered while the people on the raft are ignored.

He's calm and rational when faced with disaster and cares for the survival of his crew and passengers. On some ships, this earns him respect, on others, a mutiny wouldn't have been stopped by a better captain. By no means does Philip have a perfect record, but his faults are far fewer than the difficult circumstances he faced.

His premonition turns out to be correct, so at least thanks to the flashback Philip knows there was more to the tiger that ate Krantz and ignored him. Incidentally, the flashback is the first and only time Krantz's first name, Hermann, is mentioned. In the rest of the story, he's only referred to by his last name.

In case of Philip, he already is morally sound, but he yields to religious mandate. Amine isn't beholden to any specific religion and helps Philip make his own decisions.

In Chapter II, Philip refers to her as "an old decrepit woman" from about two years prior, while Amine in Chapter XIV says that her mother died young. She probably died in her 30s, because Amine was around 15 at that time. Amine's parents have led very stressful lives, so it's perfectly possible that caused them to show signs of aging well beyond their factual ages. Philip spends several decades being literally mad with grief and comes out genuinely older, but also looking much older than he actually is.

The Phantom Ship (1837) / int_fb3576b2	comment	The Dog Bites Back: Several characters get to have revenge on a superior that maltreated them. Captain Vanderdecken is so set on getting past the Cape that he is willing to sacrifice his crew for it. After nine weeks, his pilot Schriften has enough and convinces the crew to bind the captain and head back to Table Bay. In fury and due to bad timing, Vanderdecken punches him overboard, where he drowns. Vanderdecken isn't remorseful and makes his oath that he will round the Cape even if it'll take until the Day of Judgment. This oath turns Schriften into an undead creature tasked by his grudge to sabotage any attempt to save the Flying Dutchman from living death. He gets a good run until he too is freed. Commodore Avenhorn is condemned to be left to die of starvation and exposure on an uninhabited island by Admiral Rymelandt. Officially, it's because Avenhorn deserted. In reality, they both know it is because Avenhorn has proven himself a far better leader. Avenhorn takes it in stride, prophesizing that Rymelandt's bones will lay beside his. Rymelandt's ship runs aground shortly after and within walking distance of where Avenhorn was abandoned. Avenhorn attacks Rymelandt at a moment his guard is down and they both plummet to their deaths. The Portuguese soldiers at Tidore have long suffered under the Commandant's cruel reign. Then an opportunity comes up for eleven soldiers to nab a ship and a fortune to return to Europe with. This opportunity involves murdering the Commandant, which is not an objection in the slightest. Spokesman Pedro puts it like this to Philip: "You do not know the treatment which we have received from his hands; and sweet as the money will be to us, his death will be even sweeter."
