요약
Larsen은 카리스마 있고 무자비한 캐릭터로 "Sea-Wolf" 페르소나를 구현한다. 거친 바다를 지배하고 다른 사람을 자신의 의지대로 구부리는 남자다. 그는 예리한 지성과 폭력적인 성격을 모두 보여주는 복잡한 인물이다. Van Weyden은 마지못해 Ghost 승무원이 되어 가혹한 노동, 잔인한 규율, 생존을 위한 끊임없는 투쟁의 세계에 던져진다.
이야기가 전개됨에 따라 Van Weyden은 새로운 환경에 적응하고 바다 생활의 도전에 맞서야 하며 동시에 Larsen 선장의 권위와 충돌해야 한다. 극명한 차이에도 불구하고 Van Weyden과 Larsen은 심도 있는 철학적 토론에 참여하여 삶, 도덕성 및 인류의 본성에 대한 그들의 대조되는 세계관과 아이디어를 탐구한다.

Summary
Larsen embodies the "Sea-Wolf" persona as a charismatic and ruthless character. He is a man who rules the rough seas and bends others to his will. He is a complex character who displays both a sharp intellect and a violent personality. Van Weyden reluctantly becomes a member of the Ghost crew and is thrown into a world of harsh labor, brutal discipline, and a constant struggle for survival.
As the story unfolds, Van Weyden must adapt to his new surroundings and face the challenges of life at sea, while at the same time clashing with Captain Larsen's authority. Despite their stark differences, Van Weyden and Larsen engage in an in-depth philosophical discussion, exploring their contrasting worldviews and ideas about life, morality, and the nature of humanity.
