Safety Information
About Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed
to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may
appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or
epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these
“photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness,
altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs,
disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may
also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from
falling down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these
symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above
symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience
these seizures.
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther
from the television screen, using a smaller television screen, playing in a
well-lit room, and not playing when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult
a doctor before playing.
Other Important Health and Safety Information The Xbox Instruction
Manual contains important health and safety information that you should
read and understand before using this software.
Avoid Damage to Your Television
Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, especially front- or
rear-projection types, can be damaged if any video games, including Xbox
games, are played on them. Static images presented during the normal
course of game play may “burn in” to the screen, causing a permanent
shadow of the static image to appear at all times, even when video games
are not being played. Similar damage may occur from static images created
when placing a video game on hold or pause. Consult your television owner’s
manual to determine if video games can be played safely on your set. If you
are unable to find this information in the owner’s manual, contact your
television dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video games can be
played safely on your set.
Unauthorized copying, reverse engineering, transmission, public
performance, rental, pay for play, or circumvention of copy protection
is strictly prohibited.

Prologue
Even here in the gulf, rescue is nowhere in sight. The wind hunts
me with a long, cold-fingered reach that strangles lost words in my
throat before they cross my lips. Rain falls from every direction,
either straight down in torrents or whipped up from the waves. My
energy and hope sapped, I don’t know how long I can hang on.
Patrolling the Gulf of the Moon is usually one of the best duties
a young boat captain can draw—relative safety, warm waters,
and plenty of small coastal villages to provide food, drink, and
entertainment. The day we cast off was one of those days that
beckon young men to a life at sea. As commander, I had stood
proudly behind my helmsman while he guided our stout vessel
out of the harbor and into the gulf.
I am still not sure where the attack came from because it was so
fast and so final. I’ve been tossed about like a child’s wooden boat
for as best as I can tell, six days and nights, but the line between
sleep and wakefulness has become blurred save for one clear
thought that keeps me clinging for life—that I must find out who is
responsible for this devastating attack on my boat and crew. I draw
small comfort from the knowledge that I am the only one who
survived the onslaught, and that this one remaining chunk of hull is
all that separates me from the sharks. The thought had just crossed
my mind when I heard the distant hum of an
engine through the driving rain.
