A fleet comes in

Discovery, Exploration

A battered fleet returns, a hero dies.

Admiral Breckion’s fleet (or what is left of it) returns. It had been assumed the fleet was lost.   Six ships sailed into port with maps, artefacts and stories from afar. The Admiral had died from scurvy two days out from home…He was hailed a hero postumously and, reportedly, several statues were erected in his likeness.   Extensive maps of the world around them were sent to the great library for intense examination.
