Sam Pache and the Black Ships. I think CARL is Japanese. He would have been the piece to the puzzle surrounding the mystery of the missing Turtle Fishermen. Really though I think the main factor to the enigma of this story is about the appearance of the Bronze Sphere. If you have had any Socratic Philosophical training you would have heard of it. Prior to the mentioning of the Bronze Sphere in Socratic philosophy there were cosmological explanations in reference to Turtle Shells. It was asked then what was underneath the turtle shell when it became a model for earth? The response quite well known was, “That’s easy; it’s Turtle shells all the way down.”
