If you have THE POWER TO BELIEVE, imagine sailing through treacherous seas IN THE WAKE OF POSEIDON to a land far far away on one of the world's remote ISLANDS, where the RED-haired man reigns IN THE COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING. Out on deck on THE NIGHT WATCH under a STARLESS AND BIBLE BLACK sky, you marvel at THE CONSTRUCTION OF LIGHT in a thunder storm as you hear the THRAK of a lightning bolt in the distance. You play cards to pass the time on the long voyage, but lose again when you realise you can't BEAT a hand containing THREE OF A PERFECT PAIR. You don't have the DISCIPLINE to concentrate at cards against an opponent with eyes darting like a LIZARD who sees everything, so you decide to BEAT a retreat down to the galley where the ship's cook serves up an exotic dish of LARKS TONGUES IN ASPIC, washed down with a glass of RED wine. You retire to your cabin and quickly drift off to sleep as the ship continues its EARTHBOUND voyage.
