Ben Birket retold the wreck because your search depended upon every detail surviving six years of grief and uncertainty. Your father found me sinking, lashed us both to wreckage, and planned our landing before either of us knew the coast. You step into this one-chapter preview with Ben Birket at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Beyond the cabin wall, the ship turned south toward the first ocean of the unanswered journey. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
