(Since the vessel procured an ambergris from the sea, all the seamen have now been rounded up, legs bound to mooring rocks.)

(As soon as the ambergris was lifted on to the top deck, a powerful otherworldy sweet aroma spread across the vessel, driving people to madness and trance states. Some even accused the Captain of housing a secret perfumary below deck)

(While the smell filled the nostils of the seamen, the devil ascended and slithered around the boat in the form of an otherworldly serpent, spreading the smell of greed)

(Serpent: "There are too many to share the spoils with. Remember, there is a Boat Captain, a Boat Owner, an Island Chief, an Atoll Chief and even the Head of State".)

(Serpent: "You were the one whose eyes braved the strong winds of "Furahalha" and "Uthurahalha" - a period of strong consistent winds during the early days of the North-East Monsoon. You braved the towering swell and waves, you braved the storms and the infernal currents. This gold is your birth-right".)

(Serpent: "Quickly, wrap this gold of the sea in a piece of white cloth. Do not let it go damp. Care for it as if it were your own child and do not let it drown back into the depths of the ocean".)

(Serpent: "Even as we speak, the descendants of the wretched Borah merchants are sniffing the air like dogs. They are looking to take away your child".)

(Serpent: "Don't you think that you should keep this treasure a secret from all living souls, at least till you reap the riches from it. Remember, dead men tell no tales, a tongue that has been cut out cannot speak and a man without limbs cannot steal".)
