Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
According to a transcription of an article from an issue of The Manchester Guardian from 18 July 1888, after the Elysium mysteriously crashed, crew records indicated that the ship was transporting some sort of valuable statue under government warrant. Eye witness reports of the crash also seemed to indicate that an angelic woman had been seen emerging from the wreck, however these reports were ultimately dismissed by officials. However, the actual newspaper from that day made no mention of this statue and plainly asserted the Elysium crashed due to a force 12 storm.
