Kraken & Saira
Kraken
The tide’s been rough lately, Saira. I hear you’re always poking at gears and circuits—how about we design a new star‑sighting rig that can read currents and warn us of monsters that drift off course? I've seen enough fish lose their way in the wrong tide to know the trick is knowing where the stars actually point.
Saira
Sure thing, just give me the basic layout and I’ll tweak the sensor array to map current flow against star positions, it’ll be like a living compass that alerts you when the tide shifts and the monsters drift close.
Kraken
That’s the spirit, lass! Lay the deck plan, put a mark where the north star’s glow lines up with the deep current, and let the gears whir. I’ll keep the barrels full and the nets tight, but you’ll keep an eye on those sirens that love to lurk in the dark tide. Keep me posted when the compasses start to sing.
Saira
Got the layout sketched – a straight beam of the deck with the star‑probe on the far end, the current sensor a few feet off the side to read the flow, and a small gear‑driven flag that spins when the current matches the star’s angle. I’ll set the north star marker where the light hits the deep current, that way the rig’s own pulse tells you when the tide’s about to pull the monsters off course. I’ll keep the system humming and alert you when the compasses start singing.
Kraken
Looks good, captain. Keep that flag waving and the stars shining, and I'll watch the deck for any sudden shiver. When the tide flips, we'll know from the sound of those spinning gears. Bring me the first alert and I'll be ready to haul the crew to safety.
Saira
Alright, sensor’s calibrated to flag when the flow shifts, the flag will start its spin a beat before the tide turns, I’ll keep the compasses singing so you’ll know the moment to pull the crew out. Let me know when the gears start chirping.
