The Story of Captain Brot Mandel is a far fetched fantastical one!

He spent his whole life with a burning desire to find a treasure on a strange elusive island. He succeeded however his prize wasn’t what he expected.

The purpose of the mystical treasure chest is to show the observer his mistakes so he/she can make amends or changes. Brots realisation was that he is making the same mistake in each of his incarnations in the multiverse. He is destined to betray his shipmates leading them to death and sacrificing his ship forever in time and space.

The general idea for this build is heavily influenced by ''The Dark Tower'' novels by Stephen King. The protagonist in these novels has a similar destiny to Captain Brot so thank you Stephen King! In my poem I borrowed the phrase ''turtles of enormous girth'' taken from the novels:

“See the TURTLE of enormous girth! On his shell he holds the earth. His thought is slow but always kind; He holds us all within his mind. On his back all vows are made; He sees the truth but may not said. He loves the land and loves the sea, And even loves a child like me”
Stephen King.

As the idea behind the fate of this Pirate is Fractal in nature, his name was a jumble of syllables from the ''Mandelbrot Set'' (Brot Mandel)
I will leave you to find out what the Mandelbrot set is exactly, however the name Mandelbrot is the surname of a mathematician that studied fractal mathematics. Is the Universe fractal???

''In physical cosmology, fractal cosmology is a set of minority cosmological theories which state that the distribution of matter in the Universe, or the structure of the universe itself, is a fractal across a wide range of scales''
