Swamped

You think you've seen all you can from here in regards to magic, so you need to write it all down. And you need to still be here so you can double-check things you're not sure about.

The results are disappointing, frankly. You have a lot of information, but you can't make sense of any of it. And there's no one on the ship with enough magical expertise to look over it for anything you may have missed.

Hmm... but you do notice one oddity. And double-checking confirms the relevant numbers are correct. You run through your calculations again to be sure, and arrive at the same unusual result.
