Skylla and Khaybdis

I followed Teiresias' directions went past the Sirens without harm over to the Skylla, knowing that 6 men would die, but did could not tell my crew. we made it past to Thrinakia after a day but had lost 6 men.  

I couldn't tell the men that six of them would die, because this would instil fear which instils mutiny which is one of the worst words a captain can utter and i couldn't let that have a dishonarable death in fear but knowing they would die was awful so mcuh so that I can't bare to talk of it.
