Hull HealthDescription
100The Khanate's light-bulbs aren't necessary yet. All around your diving-bell, luminous jellyfish swarm. […] "A jillyfish," says the Naturalist. "Toxic tentacles on that beauty. […] They're the glowing group - my specialty."
95In the waters above, bound-sharks are circling a fresh shipwreck.

Debris floats down past the porthole. […] And, of course, bodies. […]

The Youthful Naturalist looks away.
90Another face peers back through the porthole. […] "Probably going to tell the others," says the Naturalist. "They don't like me coming down here. […] But they won't stop us this time."
85Far away, almost too far to see in the gloom, a veritable behemoth of the deep: a Midnight Whale. […] But the creature is embattled with an even bigger beast. […] Its song will life in the water long after its death.
80Nothing but blackness outside – unless there's a deeper colour within the blackness. […] Patterns appear, black on black, when you can finally distinguish between them. […] Does the Youthful Naturalist see them too? His eyes are closed. Maybe he does.
75Something sparkles outside the porthole. […] "It's a spine," says the Naturalist.

An enormous spine, taller than a cathedral's spire. More cluster around the first. […]

Deadly points twinkle like drowned stars all around.
61-70Another zubmersible vessel is caught on the spines. Not simply caught: speared from every angle. […]

"That must be the Fortas Kettle," says the Naturalist. […]

There are no lights in the ship. Curious fish swim through broken portholes.
