Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Shadows were stirring
Scaring even the mouse.
Tiptoes across the ceiling
Most frightening and drear
Told of visitors
Strange and to fear.

The Element of Surprise
Mablethorpe is a small seaside town that abuts the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire in the Greater Britains. Officially, it is a town filled with fishermen and common folk, not noted for the fame of its thinkers, but rather the skills of its netters and its ship builders. During the India Isles Wars, it had become a quick port for the Greater Britain armies to embark and debark from the mighty wooden ships of that time to fight over in the heathen lands, as the Church of England, designated them.
Being towards the end of December and near upon Christmas Eve, the seacoast was littered with sea debris washed in by the larger than usual tides of that time of the year. One could find mussels, crabs, starfish, and pieces of waterlogged wood from sunken ships swept under by the Might Neptune’s Trident, as well as the occasional bottle with a note from a loved one lost at sea or a note from someone separated from a loved one, hoping to reconnect somehow.
Such a time and place, day and location were where Holmes found himself with Watson, briskly pacing near the water’s receding and ebbing flows, deep in thought.

Watson commented as he drew in a deep lungful of fresh, salt-tinged air moist and vibrant with the purity of the sea. But I would druthers be back at Baker Street eating scones.
Christmas comes quickly, Watson.
Too so.
Holmes said nothing. Watson expected no less.
They were on an unusual case that involved a lost fisherman, who had been seen in this area only hours before his disappearance and left no trace or makings of his withdrawal from either his home or ship at the time.
It was a very remarkable case in that the sea usually didn’t sweep something out without rolling it back in again later on. The fisherman had left behind a family of four and a large certificate of insurance, which was, also, what brought Watson and Holmes to the area.
Watson shrugged his jacket on closer to his neck, wishing he had brought his muffler as he had planned, instead of braving the cold morning airs without it.
He had personally given thought to the proposition that his own life
