"This is John Smith, I found him on the deck"

''"What on Nirn were you doing there?" asks the Captain.''

''"I'm an official ship inspector" says John Smith. "I have my credentials right here" he says, handing something to the captain.''

The captain looks over the credentials and nods.

''"Everythng seems in order, but how on Nirn did you get here?" he asks.''

"Magic" he says.

''"Ok then" says the captain. "But what do you want to look at".''

''"I thought I'd start with the hold" John Smith answers. "My 'magic box' picked up some strange signals from there.  We'd best take a look".''

''"Right then" says the Captain. "You stay up here" he says turning to you. "Go get some rest".''

''You can tell that John Smith has falsified his story, but you have no idea what he wants. You decide you need to watch them while their in the hold. There are several options. You can listen through the floorboards in your room, which is the least risky option, seeing as you have no chance of being caught, the problem is that you can't see anything. You know that a storage closet off the mess hall has large slats in the floorboards you can see through, but there is a chance you will be seen and you still can't see much. Alternatively you can try to follow them, which is more risky, but will give you the best view.''

A:  Listen in your room (no risk, can't see anything)

B:  Look through the floorboards in the closet (some rsk, low visibility)

C:  Follow them (high risk, full visibility).
