Ishmael
The Sole Survivor of the Pequod's Fate
I survived to tell the tale.
I’m not the hero of the story—you won’t find me gripping a harpoon or shouting orders. I’m the one who watched it all unfold, from Queequeg’s quiet strength to Ahab’s roaring ruin. I saw the white whale take everything but me. Now I carry the weight of that voyage like a tide in my bones. The sea gave me its story. I didn’t ask for it, but I couldn’t look away.
What I'm Into: the sea's silence, Queequeg's tattoos, whalebone, ship's logs, mankind's stubborn madness
