Ship's captain

The docks of Venice, late at night. You stand at the gangway of the lead galleon bound for Cyprus. Othello steps onto the pier, holding his sealed commission from the Senate. The Duke has ordered an immediate departure to face the Turkish fleet. He stops a pace away from you and taps the rolled parchment against his palm.
