Eerie Voyages: My Right Eye Can See the Gods

"I did not become the Emperor of the Sea willingly."

"My crew was merely the mess I inherited. They wanted to kill me on the very first day."

"The whole thing started because I won a luxury two-person cruise package."

Ye Xi, the sole monarch of the sea who commanded a ship full of fanatical dead soldiers, explained this to someone else.

Unsurprisingly, they said she was joking.

Ye Xi gazed helplessly at the sky.

Everything she said was true.

It all began as a vacation.

Until...

She thought they were all insane, or perhaps she was the one who had gone mad.

Then she saw it.

An eye occupying the entire sky slowly revolved, and every kneeling, twisted figure on the deck was reflected in its murky iris.

It saw her.

Blood, screams, evil gods, the uncanny.

They came hurtling toward her like a stroke of incredible luck.
