Summary
Alexander liked Mister Goodsir. There was an open kindness about him, an enthusiastic curiosity that made conversing with him a joy. When Goodsir spoke of climbing icebergs, crustaceans, or his family back in Scotland, he invited whoever listened in to his world. His compassion could be overwhelming, but when balanced against Doctor Stanley, Goodsir’s way was sorely needed.
So it pained Alexander to know that of all the omegas on this expedition, Goodsir appeared to be struggling first. He was the warning sign.
Without him making a conscious decision to, Alexander walked quickly to where he knew Goodsir’s small room to be. As he got closer he began to feel as if he were walking into a fog. The air was becoming progressively thicker with each step. So profound was the change in atmosphere, that he couldn’t believe he hadn’t felt some hint of it the moment he had boarded the ship.
