One of likely many volumes, this plain leather book painstakingly catalogs the most recent travels of Lady J over a twenty-year period, ending when she arrived at Lost Anchorage.
Most of the information here is not interesting however one section stands out.
IY711 SpringRising 14: Middle Watch, 3 bells: The conjunction was visible to our lookout; alas, due to the accursed Drift, it was several miles from the calculated location and upwind to boot. We managed to reach it before it closed, but only by cracking on staysails. We entered the Shadow at 3 bells, the ship's priest performing the necessary rituals to preserve the crew from the cold of the place and the other dangers.
IY711 SpringRising 14: Morning Watch, 1 bell: Sighted a Kraken off a league off the port bow. They are becoming all too common in these shadowy seas. We fired a broadside at the beast and it thought better of engaging us.
<6 days of uneventful sailing over a calm black sea>
IY711 SpringRising 20: Afternoon Watch, 6 bells: Again, the conjunction was not in it's expected location, this time it was several leagues downwind. Again, we barely reached it in time, and almost missed our path back to the Waking World.
IY711 SpringRising 20: Afternoon Watch, 7 bells: Readings indicate we are fifty leagues south of our expected position in the Waking World. Nonetheless, no small feat, traveling a thousand leagues in six days.
