G9 - Running Story

1.     Your ship is under the waves. You are the lifeboat with the few who managed to reach the relative safety of the craft. Describe what you are feeling, who are the people sharing the boat with you, and reflect on the problems that arise with such proximity to others in so stressful a situation. You can also foreshadow later events with events on the lifeboat (Stephen and Eoin argue a lot, they will fight later on in the story).
2.    You see land! You manage to get your boat ashore, and see... what? What is the island like? You explore and discover what? The weather... The sounds... Fruit trees? Wild animals?
3.    Now that you have survived the sinking, and managed to reach land, it's time to plan. Presumably you were able to scavenge some food when you came ashore, but surely you plan on making a more long-term solution? Where will you sleep? Who will be the leader? Will you you have a pure democracy? Are there any tensions that may be arising?
