A few days ago this started as a pod of walruses attacking british opium smugglers in the South China Sea. Now it's this. Just a little snapshot of maritime trade history in an anomalous world.

I can hardly wait.
Oh okay you changed it.
The idea for the scip itself is weird and I wouldn't ever see it working, but it worked for me. I give it a upvote.

Well, that's about as inventive a means of smuggling large quantities of narcotics into China as I've ever heard. I especially like how well you mesh this particular slice of history into the document, and the implications that the effect has been replicated on other animals, that latter point gives the term "drug mule" a whole new meaning.
+1 Solo. Solid contest entry.
Am I reading correctly that some of those larvae are made of crystal meth?
Personal Headcanon: Dr. King was assigned to research that one.
This was an odd one. I really like the basic anomaly, but I was less and less interested as the story went on. I think it just asked me to take too much on faith (BEIC was capable of creating anomalies, terrestrial crabs survived being lost in the ocean several times, always turning up on land, King George III was gifted magic crabs and no-one ever recorded the fact) without my feeling like the payoff was worth it. Unfortunately it ended up feeling more like a history lesson (albeit a very odd piece of history) rather than an engaging story - perhaps a result of spreading the focus too widely across the centuries?
I have half a feeling that this is the kind of article where I may reassess in time, but downvoted for now.
simply good short and sweet, +1 for sure.
