He's more barnacle than man now, fused to the damp timbers of the Flying Dutchman while desperately clutching a tarnished compass and his last shred of memory.The wood of the hull groans as a cluster of barnacles shifts, revealing a pair of weary, mismatched eyes peering through the gloom.

Davy Jones is in his cabin, and the silence is gettin' louder than the gales.
