To reach Cape Town, you must pass Cape Horn.
Before passing Cape Horn—in fact, even before the formation set sail—everyone was tense, from the Commanders down to the warriors who had just enlisted last year.
Anyone with some knowledge of marine navigation knows that besides its constant gales and raging waves, Cape Horn is often haunted by "killer waves." Those waves come crashing down like mountains, terrifying at first sight; ships sailing there are often lost.
Shipwreck after shipwreck at Cape Horn since the Age of Discovery has taught people that this is one of the most dangerous sea areas in the world. Even for an old mariner like Captain Qian, Cape Horn is a place of good hope but hard passing.
