Found in a bottle....

Crews Record - July 31, 1715 - The Stag

On voyage to our destination, Captain Alonso and the small fleet of Merchant Traders were broadsided with foul weather outside the Bermuda Triangle.
Unfortunately for us, we were being pursued by Pirate Raiders in faster ships. The storm kept advancing from the south and did not help matters. Separated from the main fleet, Captain Alonso sent the signal to navigate the five remaining ships, into the storm.
At first, The Stag was rolling and twisting in the mountainous ocean waves and the sails were howling under the fierceness of the hurricane. From the crow’s nest, I shouted “There… There!” and I pointed with excitement! Through the rain and the darkness, a single intense light, burned through the distant sky. Captain Alonso has named it the Ghost Star, and believes it to be a secret path, the way to go.... for now.
The Helmsmen were awash on the main decks, and as fast as the storm came upon us, it has taken a forceful hold of our ships, we quickly reached the eye of the storm. The seas calmed, and when the storm settled, which seemed like only moments thereafter, the sky cast a mysterious burden on us, and even heavier on the Pirate Raiders. They were not behind us, and we have lost another ship.
By chance, they may be the lucky ones.
This Ghost Star is yet to be known on any charts, although, it remains, obvious crisp and clear in the sweet light. The compasses are spinning wildly, Captain Alonso signaled the crews to maneuver the four remaining ships toward the light of the Ghost Star.
Setting the sails and racing toward the new Star, the ships passed directly through the most beautiful rainbow I have ever seen, the ships have taken on a magical glow, each of a different color. 
The ships began drifting through the sky, propelled by an unknown force. The ocean slid off the decks like a glistening river of gold, and the sky filled with rolling cloud. I now believe, The Stag and the others have transcended the real world into the Aether of time and space, pulled ever closer toward the one distant Star.
Chaos seems to have taken hold, and the Traider Captains are realizing, this will be a race to collect the prize of the unknown Star, and perhaps, its the very path, to the future!
The captains are doing some fancy maneuvering, and one ship even cut us off. I think they, may be possessed by Raiders. It is my hope this star will bring us good luck, and at least one ship will make it home safely, so they can tell the world, of our glory chasing the Stars.

Twice now, I have spotted the ocean below, and I am dropping this bottle while I still have it in sight. By Captain Alonso’s orders, included are a map and instruction on how to follow us through to finding the Star.

May your journeys be filled with the best of luck!
