Mara doesn't trust a stranger between her and her own wreck. She refuses, drops past him, and disappears into the gash alone. Behind her, the Vares lights hold back. They don't follow. Whatever the diver wanted to warn her about, she'll find it herself, in the dark, with no one at her back.
Inside the hold, Mara finds the crate already open and empty, dragged out through a second breach. Vares beat her to it years ago. All that's left is a single page caught under a beam: a manifest with her husband's signature on the bottom. It's thin, but it's a thread. She carries it up into the light, and starts pulling.
