Long ago, there was a Dutch captain named Hendrick van der Decken. He set out on a voyage from Amsterdam despite warnings from his crew about the dangerous weather. There were rumors that he had made a deal with a devilish creature to complete his journey no matter what.

As they sailed near the Cape of Good Hope, a terrible storm struck. The crew begged the captain to turn back, but he refused. Suddenly, a strange figure appeared on the ship, as if from another world. Some say it was an angel, while others believe it was a creature of darkness. This being cursed the ship and everyone on it, condemning them to sail forever.

Since then, sailors have claimed to see the Flying Dutchman sailing across the sea. It appears as a ghostly ship covered in mist and glowing lights, moving without any wind or sails. It's believed that seeing the ship brings bad luck and misfortune.
