Doctor...we have to consider the possibility that the Admiral is as much a captive of these circumstances as we. Even gods can only control some things, and though he may seem to have command of the Barge, what happens if he's overwhelmed? Incapacitated or sick? Maybe he can't help where we're going right now.

I wish I could see where we're going. Just a bit into the future so I know how long this lasts. If there is a limit to it it will, like the floods, make it easier to endure.
