Unholy Captives, part 2

Unholy Captives, part 2 is the second part of chapter V in the plot of Return of the Obra Dinn. It reveals the fate of cook Thomas Sefton.

As four crewmen carry a mermaid on a net stretcher down the stairs, Sefton, observing this, jokingly asks the crewmen to hand the mermaids over to him so he could prepare a meal out of them. He notices a shell a mermaid has and closes in to examine it. Right after a crewman warned Sefton to get back, the mermaid strikes Sefton with its tail, killing him.

Shortly after witnessing this, Fillip Dahl, Captain Witterel's steward, runs off.

On the main deck, the officers are discussing while surgeon Henry Evans inspects the spike that hit Diom and Tan. On the side, some crewmen were hauling the Formosan chest back to the ship.

When playing a new game, the pocketwatch starts shaking after viewing this diorama, allowing access to.

Things of interest

 * The identity of cook Thomas Sefton can be deduced as he makes a reference to frying a meal. He is also holding the same two-pronged fork he has in . At this point in the game, there is no ambiguity as to whether Sefton is the butcher, as Emil O'Farrell can be identified earlier.
 * Captain's steward Fillip Dahl is running away from the action, possibly trying to get a weapon (which he will use against seaman John Naples in the cargo hold in ).
 * Bosun Alfred Klestil can be seen with his whistle around his neck.
