The sea view of Cape Town had changed entirely. Once, it had been a bustling port town, with countless merchant ships and warships docked side by side, commerce and culture thriving together. As Europe's gateway to the East, the harbour was always filled to the brim, crowded with people, its liveliness such that if sand were dropped, it would not even reach the ground.

Instead, it was dominated by a line of imposing metal vessels, upon which people, no larger than ants from a distance, could be seen working tirelessly.
