The Planet climbed another wall of water and plunged until the deck vanished beneath foam. You clung beside chief mate Ezra Rimmer while Arthur Panton secured himself to a belaying pin. You step into this one-chapter preview with Arthur Panton at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The Planet rushed faster toward the glow, and no one could yet see what waited inside it. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
