I figure as the captain plummeted down the stairs he screamed,” I paused, choosing my words carefully, “and—” Seth frowned. “Are you suggesting that the screams we heard last night come from the captain as he fell?

as the secondary character, or a side-kick, or in general someone who does nothing for the story. While Captain Nemo and Monsieur Arronax (and even Ned Land) take the spotlight in the story, Conseil plays an underrated part in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Nonetheless, there was one character I felt I could

Everyone knows he wasn’t born with super powers, he was anemic but he felt the compromise of fighting along with the other Americans with a weakness, not a power.
