Ox was also promoted to the Captain of SS Daffodil.
Although far from the Mirror Sea, Dead Man Bay was relatively close, and Ox planned to set out on January 8th. First, he had to gather a crew capable of sailing. Once at Dead Man Bay, his reputation would allow him to recruit more people. Gawain and Weber would go along as safety consultants.
Morison didn't need anything in particular; he was a man of curiosity, always craving new experiences. He had never visited a Merfolk habitat, and the only Merfolk he had ever seen were coastal merchants, which were uninteresting. He expressed his willingness to join the trip to see how the Merfolk lived and run a Cthulhu group, but he wanted to take Archer with him.
As a major shareholder receiving direct dividends, Morison wasn't concerned about the small sum that Ox could offer, since he had more money than he could ever spend.
They expected to return by the end of January, which would be quicker than Wolman.
