Dark Wake on a Desert Island Bonded by Pearl

The narrator recalls a summer aboard a shipwrecked crew where Pearl guides them, Ralph Fortyman dies, and Tom Wren hints at hidden danger. The discovery of a dead Mr. Fairley and a treasure deepens guilt, anger, and a vow to abandon the group. The narrator imagines revenge as madness grips him and a sleep-like recovery follows amid whispers of care from Tom.
