It was the schooner Hesperus,
That sailed the wintry sea;
And the skipper had taken his little daughtèr,
To bear him company.
Blue were her eyes as the fairy-flax,
Her cheeks like the dawn of day,
And her bosom white as the hawthorn buds,
That ope in the month of May.
The skipper he stood beside the helm,
His pipe was in his mouth,
And he watched how the veering flaw did blow,
The smoke now West, now South.
Then up and spake an old Sailòr,
Had sailed to the Spanish Main,
"I pray thee, put into yonder port,
For I fear a hurricane.
"Last night, the moon had a golden ring,
And to-night no moon we see!"
The skipper, he blew a whiff from his pipe,
And a scornful laugh laughed he.
Colder and louder blew the wind,
A gale from the Northeast,
The snow fell hissing in the brine,
And the billows frothed like yeast.
Down came the storm, and smote amain
The vessel in its strength;
She shuddered and paused, like a frighted steed,
Then leaped her cable's length.
"Come hither! come hither! my little daughtèr,
And do not tremble so;
For I can weather the roughest gale
That ever wind did blow."
He wrapped her warm in his seaman's coat
Against the stinging blast;
He cut a rope from a broken spar,
And bound her to the mast.
"O father! I hear the church-bells ring,
Oh say, what may it be?"
"'T is a fog-bell on a rock-bound coast!" -
And he steered for the open sea.
"O father! I hear the sound of guns,
Oh say, what may it be?"
"Some ship in distress, that cannot live
In such an angry sea!"
"O father! I see a gleaming light,
Oh say, what may it be?"
But the father answered never a word,
A frozen corpse was he.
Lashed to the helm, all stiff and stark,
With his face turned to the skies,
The lantern gleamed through the gleaming snow
On his fixed and glassy eyes.
Then the maiden clasped her hands and prayed
That savèd she might be;
And she thought of Christ, who stilled the wave
On the Lake of Galilee.
And fast through the midnight dark and drear,
Through the whistling sleet and snow,
Like a sheeted ghost, the vessel swept
Tow'rds the reef of Norman's Woe.
And ever the fitful gusts between,
A sound came from the land;
It was the sound of the trampling surf,
On the rocks and the hard sea-sand.
The breakers were right beneath her bows,
She drifted a dreary wreck,
And a whooping billow swept the crew
Like icicles from her deck.
She struck where the white and fleecy waves,
Looked soft as carded wool,
But the cruel rocks, they gored her side,
Like the horns of an angry bull.
Her rattling shrouds, all sheathed in ice,
With the masts went by the board;
Like a vessel of glass, she stove and sank,
Ho! ho! the breakers roared!
At daybreak, on the bleak sea-beach,
A fisherman stood aghast,
To see the form of a maiden fair,
Lashed close to a drifting mast.
The salt sea was frozen on her breast,
The salt tears in her eyes;
And he saw her hair, like the brown sea-weed,
On the billows fall and rise.
Such was the wreck of the Hesperus,
In the midnight and the snow!
Christ save us all from a death like this,
On the reef of Norman's Woe!
Like I said haha 😁
@@MATTIUS Sorry mate deleted it after you commented and pinned I was trying to edit it to make it neater but it kept saying error when I sent through. So I deleted it and reposted lol
Nah its fine 🙂 the wadsworth poem was always going to get a pin from me.
@@MATTIUS I'm a sucker for classic literature, especially those pieces which include pipes. I blame Sir Arthur Conen Doyle.
I love that your telling of these events adds such a rich and subtle feeling of crawling horror to the darker corners of the Elite universe.
In my mind, even in the first Elite game, there was always a degree of Lovecraftian creepiness in all the lore related to non-humans and, specifically, our interactions with them.
It is a treat to hear it brought together so well. :)
I low-key wish that FDev include a smidge more of Nyarlathotep, perhaps even the Mi-Go mycorrhizoids.
Thanks for the watch 🙂 glad to know you enjoy it mate.
Lovecraft is a massive influence to so many games and movies. Sci fi horror is probably my favorite genre of fiction.
Mattius my dude you are a masterful storyteller. Your music, narration, and b-roll are always just perfectly on point.
Another amazing video. Thanks CMDR!!
Thanks Steve. Glad you enjoyed the video.
That introduction... was impressive.
There probably is still couple of dozen megaships to be found ingame. With total of few hundred still crossing space of the local bubble, that would be considered official lore.
We just need tools to find them, not the occasional tip off from devs.
This Alien movie song intro nailed it. Good job
It's from Alien Isolation. Glad you enjoyed the video!
@@MATTIUS love it 😉But the song is originally composed by Jeremy Goldsmith for Alien movie and was arranged for the game to (I love the Alien isolation to) 😊Keep up the amazing work and theories
Didnt know this. That's amazing. Thanks for the info. He was the quintessential 80s movie soundtrack guy.
I participated in this mystery since adamastor showed up in chukchan, then did this story, you have told this story so well and the video production is perfect! I love how you tell elite stories but this is your best so far! Still waiting for further instructions lol
Tahnya
Thanks a lot. I enjoyed covering this one i must admit.
Thank you for doing this story justice! Glad it's now enshrined for the future in case Fdev pulls it out of the game.
Lol I love that you put our names on the screen even if they are super long.
Thanks for supporting the channel. Trying to improve what you guys get out of the bargain with the time i have available to me.
@@MATTIUS cheers mate. All I really want is for you to be able to keep making great content so if my small contribution can make that happen that's good enough for me.
You are literally my new TTS Codex while playing
Thx for sharing CMDR o7
Hope we can someday board these generation/megaships.
Yeah me too. o7
Always a pleasure catching up with you chap! Always top tier content. One day your gonna let me down, but that sure as hell aint today!!!!
Well all I can say is that I value your support and I want to do right by you guys. Thank you for the support.
Been looking forward to this
I believe the "Dark Wing" and their Permit locked area nearby may have something to do with this ...
I'll have to look into it. Cheers
The complete the mission reward, all you need to do, is visit the Adamastor, scan the LP, then fly to the Hesperus, and scan the logs on the Hesperus. Your mission will be updated, and you can then pick up the reward. That's what I did, so I know it works.
Looking forward to see where this story line leads... and how it will tie into Odessey.
My thoughts is that it will be a showcase of some kind of ground site as part of the odyssey beta
@@MATTIUS we are down to..., what, a week left in the Beta. I think it will be in the Alpha at earliest, if not full launch.
Isn't alpha before beta? Thats usually how it works in other games. Either way it will probably be a thing in the future
@@MATTIUS LOL you are correct Sir! We a currently in Alpha!... My mistake.
No worries haha.
Another ģreat video my friend. Very much enjoyed
Cheers mate. Glad you enjoyed.
Your channel rocks dude
Thanks very much :)
