Dear Diary,

            After yesterday’s scare, I have kept someone watching out for the mysterious creature all day.  But, so far, there has been no sign of it.  The Aurora suffered a substantial amount of damage from yesterday, too, but the crew has been patching her up.  Luckily, we lost no men in our battle with the strange creature.  In fact, we gained one!  Nylene has been a great help to me these past couple of days.  Although, she has stirred up some trouble among the crew, it hasn’t been too hard to sort out.  I am relieved that things didn’t turn out as bad as they could have.  We got very lucky.  Now I plan to curl up with my book and some lemon tea and try to relax.
