Part of the fun of the Prologue characters was seeing parts of their traits handed down to the crew.
Aksel Eide - described as a 'good grandson', worrying about the fate of his poor grandma, rushing headlong to assure her 'rescue'
Signe Sørensen - tiny slip of a woman with a sharp tongue and quick wit, probably
too quick, fired from her previous jobs before being hired on as a 'boat servant' and landing herself among the Madsen family on their Bornholm farm.
