Flashback: October 1707
At least 1,450 sailors were lost in the horrible shipwreck. Well, at least 1,448, because two listed among the dead were Bob Gadleng and Daniel Shelly. And the two men clutching bits of flotsam and coughing their lungs out had signed up under those names.

Finally, after much moaning and hacking and heavy breathing, a strangled, raw voice says "So...I see you've got the hang of it, too, mate?"

	"You're really not like me," Shelly said, somewhat sympathetically. Even if the man was in a prison of his own making, no one deserved that. "I die rather like a man should... but it does not last. And each time I come back, I'm... different." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rather die like a man should. Good fellow, but what a sucker. "Yes, we clearly haven't the same deal. How different are you? And never fear scaring me. Doesn't happen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Different every time," Shelly said. "Back there, in the water, after I died and rose... I did not need to breathe and I did not feel the cold." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Shelly shook his head. "Not exactly the words I would use... But I can't say that was a pleasant way to go either." (Reply to this)(Parent)
