The Vanished

Wiki Progress

Kindly be informed that the information provided in this wiki is up to date until the end of Chapter 100. We are currently working on updating the wiki with the latest information, and we appreciate any contributions.

The Vanished, or Vision 005, is a Vision in the form of a terrifying ghost ship.

It is a colossal vessel, stretching out over a considerable length and featuring an intricate labyrinth of layers and sections within its depths.

It also possesses the rare capability of navigating multiple dimensions concurrently.

All parts of the ship including furniture, and cooking utensils are conscious have individual thinking capacities, and can relay their thoughts to the captain. It can steer itself, clean the deck, and filter drinking water all by itself without the need for any crew.

Even the cannonballs have a sense of “activity”. This does not imply that each cannonball possesses independent thought, but rather, the entire ammunition system of the ship is under the control of a unified “consciousness”.

The ship’s arsenal is governed by two such “consciousnesses”—one for the ammunition system, and another for the array of cannons stationed below the deck. These consciousnesses are tasked with crucial operations such as reloading and firing during combat and have control over every “member” within their respective systems.

## Powers

It gives a variety of powers to its owner/captain including but not limited to Ghost Fire, the ability to control every part of the ship, and receive real-time feedback.

To date, nothing but the Vanished has ever returned to reality after falling into Subspace.

## Captain of The Vanished

The current captain of The Vanished is Duncan Abnomar.

## Rules for the crew of The Vanished

There are a few rules that the crew of the Vanished must know, which will help the newcomers adapt to the environment faster and accept the blessings from the Great Captain Duncan and the Vanished.

1. Captain Duncan is the absolute master of the Vanished. He is always right. Even if reality conflicts with Captain Duncan’s wording, it is subject to Captain Duncan’s judgment.
2. Crew members can only move in the areas allowed by the captain. No one is ever allowed in the areas forbidden by him.
3. If a crew member steps into an unauthorized area and is lucky enough to survive temporarily, he/she must stay there until the captain comes for him/her. Otherwise, only death awaits the foolish ones. He/she is not allowed to return without permission.
4. The Vanished is always sailing on the right course. Do not question the captain’s plan. If one finds that the scenery around the Vanished is different from what he/she expected, or if the ship falls into a ‘deeper’ part of the sea, it’s also part of the normal voyage.
5. The captain will occasionally leave the ship, but he will certainly return. During the captain’s departure, the Vanished will continue to sail as planned. Also, crew members are not allowed to go near the helm station at the stern during that period—the rudder system is insecure when the captain leaves so the cables there will strangle any daredevil that shows signs of ‘usurpation.’
6. On the Vanished, there are only six rules for the crew.
7. The door to the captain’s quarter only opens outward.

Rule no. 6 says that there are only six rules for the crew but if one reads with a clear presence of mind, he/she will notice that there are a total of seven rules mentioned. Do not question it, because there are some things better left unsaid, even a doll knows that!

## History

Note: More to be added later.

A century ago (relative to August 14, 1900, of the New City-State Calendar), Vanished was the pinnacle of craftsmanship, intricately designed and constructed by master artisans of the real world.

In its initial design and construction, the ship was intended for long-duration exploration voyages. Each compartment was crafted with safeguards to prevent fire outbreaks and pest infestations—a design feature that would be unnecessary for short-term voyages.

Yet, the grand exploratory ambitions of the ship had vanished along with its original crew. The vessel had transformed into a maritime curse, a phantom ship known among seafarers as the Vanished.

Thousands of fugitives from the thirteen islands of Wieseland witnessed the ship and their homeland being swallowed up by the collapse of the border and falling straight into the shadows.

Although there is no clear evidence, many eyewitness reports mention that there was a major storm hovering in the nearby waters that caused it to fall. This may have been caused by Storm Goddess Gomona.

In the decades since, although eyewitness reports of seeing the Vanished reappearing in the real world would pop up once in a while, there is no real evidence, and a considerable number of scholars have doubts about the ship’s ‘return’.
