+> Inky follows behind the merbear at a healthy 2 meters' distance
+> away in the bubblebee, the headlights illuminating a moderate
+> distance ahead of the distraught bear as it darts after its
+> brother.
+> 
+> As the merbear homes in on the tardigrade near the ship deck, Inky
+> keeps a lookout for any signs of movement or tentacles from behind
+> or below the shipwreck. The bubblebee's headlights cast an eerie
+> shadow from the ship's double masts even as it partly lights up the
+> rim of a gaping hole in the hull.
+
+The tardigrade, still tucked into a ball, lands on the ship deck with
+a gentle thud. It rolls a couple of times and finally comes to rest
+against the rigging. The merbear reaches it a moment later and
+cradles its jelly-like body gently in its bear arms. "My brother!" it
+cries. "My dear bear brother!"
+
+The tardigrade slowly uncurls and stretches out and looks around,
+disoriented and bleary-eyed. It waggles its eight arms around
+experimentally, closes and opens its claws as though kneading the
+water. "Brother?" says the merbear in astonishment.
+
+"I am okay brother!" says the tardigrade. "We water bears are very
+hardy and resilient! It will take more than a mere other worldly
+tentacle attack and an arcane electric blast to do me in!"
+
+While the bears are having their teary-eyed reunion, you sense
+movement in the shadows deep in the ocean trench, over which protrude
+the ship's masts. Your lights don't penetrate the darkness enough to
+see what it was. But it was large. The very stuff that thalassophobia
+is made of.
+
+You also think you see a flash of gold as the light of the bubblebee
+reflects off of something inside the ship through the hole in the
+hull. Could it be the second Ginnarak Crystal?
+
+The breach in the hull is easily large enough to admit a medium sized
+creature such as an inkling in a bubblebee apparatus. Or a sysorcer
+or a lanky old half-devil tavern owner.
