UNIT arrives to secure the scene, and among the soldiers and tech a baffled civilian finds himself drafted as the reluctant substitute: uncredentialed, homesick, and out of his depth.Night falls and the ocean strikes back. Sensors fail, men and women sink as the ground liquefies, and something enormous plucks a body straight through the turf. Tensions spike into a fragile diplomacy when UNIT constructs a flooded tunnel and invites a delegation from the deep. The visitors are at once alien and eerily organized—three familiar forms, two hulking fish-beasts, and one disturbingly humanlike leader who steps forward like royalty from another world.Gifts are offered, languages are tested, and the translator stumbles—until the deep reveals it understands far more than anyone expected. Instead of talking to governments or generals, the sea asks to speak with the one person least prepared to be an envoy.
